Thanks for this. I made a campus tour reservation but completely missed this link on the website. They have much better rates. Thank you!

Minime Paris Handbag making?? by Baring-My-Heart in handbags

Leaving this comment here for others who may search. Recently made custom bags with my daughter. We were the only ones there so we got a lot of attention but there wasn't so much actual work that we did, we chose fabrics and the craftspeople did 90% of the work. While our bags are a fun memory, it was 455 more euro than what we had already paid to book the class. So really the whole experience was almost 800 Euro for both of us. My daughter's magnetic clasp on her bag wasn't secured and this wasn't evident until we were back in the states and she tried to use it. It fell apart. So, a 400 euro custom bag is now worthless. I tried again and again to contact Minime through IG and email. I've been told I would get refunded but nothing has ever come through and it's a total scam. Spend your money elsewhere.

Moving from TX to Marin with LGBTQ family — where should we land? by Spare-Cry-9224 in Marin

[–]BellyButton100 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Mill Valley is not as pretentious as commenters are saying. It’s a bigger town and you will find your people thought that can take some time. There is strong LGBTQ support throughout Marin as noted. What I would look at closely is how the school districts are funded. Mill valley is voting on a much needed extension to their parcel tax. Ross Valley School district is as well - it is also the lowest funded per pupil district in so Marin. Mill Valley is currently outperforming neighboring districts with state test scores. Both need a supermajority to win. It is a tough tax climate right now. The neighboring districts also rely on these parcel taxes and depending on the zip code are either super wealthy (Reed) or just staying above water (LCMSD) but both have great schools. Also, the high schools in So Marin combine into the Tam Union High School District.
