A heads up to the locals who love interesting and fun design. A new shop, Grand, has opened in Somerville’s Union Square, and carries many “not seen in Boston before” lines of home decor, clothing and jewelry. From the looks of the opening night pictures, I don’t think I’m quite hip enough to shop here. I’d probably walk in and they would say “Sorry ma’am, J.Crew is in Copley Square”.
I’m loving Envirosax– especially the pouch containing 5 beautifully hip bags- since lugging several totes to the store can be more than annoying!

Also the interior design coloring books by Rock Scissor Paper are quite adorable and a great gift for an aspiring, or current, designer. I am also thrilled to see paper goods by fellow blogger Nantaka Joy.
