New spring tees, and more!

Spring is definitely springing, which makes us very happy (even with these pesky April showers). And spring means it’s time for new tees! We just got some lovely new designs in from Poketo and there are lots more on the way. We love working with Poketo because their t-shirts are unique and awesome (each is designed by a different artist), and it doesn’t hurt that the owners of Poketo are super nice!

Speaking of super nice, we also just got some more tees from local artist and friend of Grand, Print Brigade. We restocked the popular I Like to Ride Bikes tee and added some new tees and prints!

Also if you haven’t been by lately, we’ve been adding all kinds of new spring goodies for your home. Our favorite is, well, pretty much everything by Danica Studio…they put the coolest designs on dishes, mugs, oven mitts, bags, you name it! Everything is not only super cute but also affordable. Come on by and see what’s new or check it out in our webstore.

And get ready for some fun April events like Yoga Demo & Sake Tasting and a special Kentucky Derby Sip & Shop with LUPEC!

Shepard Fairey – Now and Then

Well I guess it was inevitable…

Sometime during the overnight hour of Friday some fantastic person(s) decided that Shepard Fairey wasn’t for them and defamed the mural he put up on our exterior wall of October 22nd, 2008.

I guess in the grand scheme of things five months of having it up there in all it’s glory isn’t half bad, but still, it was pretty amazing. Especially after the word got out and people started coming here just to see it. Oh well…

Here’s what it looked like the day Shepard put it up:

To the person(s) that did this. When you goto sleep tonight know that you’re awesome. Awesome like emptying my cats litter box.

Love and Kisses,

Your friends at Grand

PS – We hope  you at the very least puked when you got home from your drunken tirade and now are hungover.
