A Summer in Full Swing!

How did it get to be July 23?
I have no idea where the last month and a half have gone!

If you haven't been in to check out our lake inspired display, you should.  It even includes one of my favorite summer wines, Ranga Ranga Sauvignon Blanc!
I recommend drinking it by a lake.

There are tons of new things in the store for your partying pleasure.  Take for example...
We INTERRUPT this EMAIL to BRING YOU good NEWS
and a street DETOUR:

The movie making mecca has entered Grand Rapids,

and we're honored to have them around!

For the movie they're currently shooting, ("they" being Ruben Fleischer & Co. this time) they've decided to use Heritage Hill as their backdrop and it's causing a little Wealthy Street detour off and on for the next couple days.

Until an hour ago, that meant tonight but now it means NOW!

Wealthy Street is closed from somewhere near Madison until Paris. 
This should only be a situation if you're coming from the west.
If you encounter a detour, just do an around the block kind of thing.  We'll just be on the other side of it.  Take Logan and use Union Street to meet up with us!

The detour goes today until 4pm and then again from
6pm - middle 'o' the night and again Monday & Tuesday!

Who knows maybe you'll be in the movies?
Just don't forego your trip to Art of the Table!

Plates & Napkins

While it's fun to have a party with all those friends in the backyard...
it's super important to have an efficient cleanup after a night of fun.  We have a few options to consider. 
Besides the usual option of paper...

there's always the bamboo plates
(available in three sizes, 7", 9", 11")
bambu plate
...and the utensils to match...

Doesn't this just inspire you
to party down?  See you soon...
