So I'm strolling up Columbus Ave.in San Francisco's North Beach keeping my antenae out for the perfectt store. Unique, artistic vision, supportive of local designers, a leaning toward repurposed. Haha, is this asking too much. Not in San Francisco where every cool neighborhood from Eco~Citizen on Russian Hill to Collage gallery on Protrero Hill have this spirit and carry my lines. I do this on a regular basis since I work at the North Beach branch of the San Francisco Public Library, when I'm not creating new green accessories. I pass the same luscious places daily, from Florio Restaurant, the most charmingly decorated restaurant in the universe, to Bohemeian Cigar Store, the best place to just chill.
And then, HELLO, where have I been; there is Abitare, this charing shop. Truth be told I stopped in for a postcard when. Cia the owner, and a total sweetie, asked about my SWEET D handbag. Well , you guessed it, they are now in her shop.
So next time you're in North Beach stop into this awesome treasure trove; you're bound to find something.
Abitare is at 522 Columbus Ave between Union and Green right up from the Bohemiam Cigar Store.
