Customers head to Fiesta-themed stores for last-minute items before ‘party with a purpose’ begins
SAN ANTONIO – Fiesta will be here before we know it, and that means people are scurrying to local stores for last-minute items.
From flower crowns, confetti and papel picado to clothing and more, Amol’s on Fredericksburg Road is always a popular spot, and of course, there’s also the Fiesta Store near North Star Mall.
KSAT photojournalist Ken Huizar swung by both stores to talk with customers about their creations. See the video in the player above.
