You've Been Framed

We hope you enjoy these newly acquired found frames as much as we enjoyed finding them! All four of these vintage gems will add pizazz to any picture you have, and with a price range of $15 to $45 you can't go wrong. Stop in our Andersonville location to take a look and get framed!

Wall of Awesomeness

We like a fresh start here at Twosided just as much as anyone, and with the new year in full swing we decided the out with the old, in with the new attitude applied to our southern wall as well as our resolutions. Gone are the cardboard birdhouses, but they are far from forgotten; in fact, if you spend $30 or more we will give you one for free!

Our new wall decor displays some of our favorite charts, art, and game boards along with a new stash of amazing hand-painted coats of arms - the theme being, of course, stuff we love! Just a reminder to everyone, that if you surround yourself with objects that mean something to you, the design aesthetic you are looking for will surely follow! Have a nook in your home that embodies this philosophy? We would love to see it! Happy decorating, and we hope to see you soon!

Newly Created

Grab the gang, stock up on Scooby snacks, and speed over to Andersonville's Foursided in that Mystery Machine of yours to check out our newest gallery piece! Bright playing cards from an old Scooby-Doo game make this art both nostalgic and colorful. Great for a collector or a kid's room, snag this piece for $68. We suggest you don't dilly-dally or you will be shaking your fist and saying "I wanted that art and I could have gotten it too - if it wasn't for those meddling kids!"

Mirror, Mirror on the Wall . . .

This morning I thought, "How can each of us tackle the day with the best attitude for the day's challenges?" Positive reinforcement can't hurt!

Now when you look at the mirror on the wall at Foursided you'll get a little boost.

We say go big or go home; and while you're at it, go vintage with these amazing wall maps! We have more antique pull-down maps than you can shake a stick at here at Foursided, in Andersonville! The majority of our maps hail from the early 1900's, and range from $94 -$110. Sure they may not be practical for getting to and fro, but they make one heck of a wall decoration or room divider. We suggest you enter 5061 North Clark into that GPS thingy of yours and come see us soon!
