Design Bar celebrates grand opening on Fuller St.

The Design Bar, the former Design Box, had a grand opening party on Friday night. Friends came out to celebrate the store at 3094 Fuller Street. It was just a year ago, that the Design Box opened and Herbie Paret was owner, now it's changed hands. I miss Herbie, but it's nice to see that the store still has its eclectic style and all the one-of-a-kind Indian and funky Far East items are still available. Here are Daniel Silverman, who runs the store now, with Renata Bastos and Joseph Wright.

Here's Daniel with his family, the Silvermans -- Dad Michael, in back; Mom Karen; brother Jonathan with Erica Hyde. I had a nice time with Michael and Karen discussing the old Grove, from back in the day.

Striking a pose are Leslie Ames, Roxana Garcia-Walder and Fernanda Lanza. The girls sneaked next door to the Goldie Boutique to check the fashions out. There's a back door that connects the two stores. Leslie is owner of both.

Both locations on Fuller -- The Design Bar and Goldie are great places to get holiday gifts and their neighbor, Silverado, the Southwestern store, that features belts and buckles and lots of Native American jewlery, is another great location for gifts.
