Boutiques and Open houses

This weekend there are two fun events happening if you want something to do. First off on Saturday the 5th there is an open house in Benicia at the Commandant's house in the arsenal district. It's from 12-7 and there will be non-profits combined with businesses in the area decorating each room of the house for the holidays. Sound like fun?? Hip chick is partnering with Arts Benicia and decorating one of the rooms in vintage motif. There will be Christmas items for sale and artist's handmade ornaments for sale if one needs to find Christmas presents and who doesn't??!! One for you and one for me......

Sunday is another opportunity for fun at Colorz Hair Gallery in Walnut Creek. There is a Christmas Boutique with art, jewelry and hip chick goodies along with great gifts.

The Christmas boutique will be from 12-5 at
