A few finds in the Clement Street shop
Chock full of surprises
After grabbing lunch with friend in San Francisco’s Clement Street neighborhood, we stumbled across Urban Color. I love neighborhood shops that require you to look around and spend time to find the treasures it holds. This neighborhood gem, not only holds interesting ceramics, painting and gifts, but hosts art classes and camps.
I had the opportunity to meet Kendra Lock, shop owner. From her perch on the second floor landing, she shared info about the classes she offered and was a wealth of knowledge about many of her store’s one of a kind works of art and trinkets. For example, she spoke a length about the delicate beautiful blue Spanish ceramic I fell in love. The ceramics were beautiful to look at and were sure to improve the look of simple crudites!
Gorgeous Lady Portraits
I was enamored by these portraits and at only $15.00 each what a deal! Perfect to add a pop of color and interesting detail for a small space. She also carried a line of vintage postcards, pillows and soaps ready to be packaged up as hostess gifts. Check out this bright spot bustling with activity and unique finds.

I love all the color in the shop, and those “lady portraits” are fun, too. Wish I lived close enough to stop by and look around, but this is the next-best thing.
