A New Location for Polka Dotz Boutique
While Polka Dotz Boutique is a long-time resident store of Central Florida, they have only just recently relocated to beautiful Downtown Winter Garden. Being a big advocate of small businesses, downtown Winter Garden was the perfect place for Heidi, the local owner of Polka Dotz Boutique, to set up shop. Sandwiched in between some fantastic vendors, Polka Dotz Boutique is a wonderful place to shop.
Having just opened on Plant Street, Heidi cannot wait to introduce the Downtown Winter Garden residents and shoppers to the Polka Dotz Boutique brand and is excited to meet you.
