From CHA Orlando in front of the Crafty Chica display: Rebeca and Aida of Tres Rebecas Boutique, 711 S. St. Mary’s St., Texas. (210) 224-5733.
One of the highlights of my weekend was visiting Tres Rebecas in downtown San Antonio. Aida, my friend who drove us around, helps run this fabulous shop, along with owner Rebeca María Barrera (she was shopping for merch in Mexico!). After we finished up with our Michaels event, Aida opened the shop after hours just for me!
If you ever visit SA, you MUST check out this boutique. Tres Rebecas is a Latino-themed craft store with workshops, oodles of supplies and patterns; a fashion boutique with items from high-end Mexican designers, as well as local artists; a bookstore, a gallery and more!

Papel picado.
Vintage Spanish language literature, plus hundreds of fiction and non-fiction titles about Latino culture by Latino authors.
Scrumptious fabrics, trims, appliques, and yarns.
