Corks & Stubs

cork collector, $210

ticket taker, $190

It should come as no surprise that we love a good collection of do-dads here at Foursided. If you are reading this blog and shopping in our stores, you probably have a fondness for saving little treasures too.

Concert-goers and wine drinkers listen up: instead of saving your ticket stubs in old shoe boxes or throwing those corks in a bowl why not proudly display them as art in your home? We have constructed these handy shadow boxes, complete with a hole in the top - so drop your prized possessions in, watch them fill up, and admire away!

New In The Gallery: Festival Preview

Rulers, bugs, bingo, and more!

Check out the great new gallery pieces debuting at the Lakeview East Festival of the Arts this weekend. We can't promise they will make it back to grace our walls at the Andersonville gallery, so gawk at them on the blog, then snatch them up on Saturday and Sunday along Broadway.
The early bird gets the worm, or in this case the art.

Lakeview East Festival Of The Arts
