Publisher’s NOTE

Meet the

Heart

behind it all...

Some of my fondest childhood memories, center around my time spent at the Lake of the Ozarks with my family and friends. Warm summers, my days working the gas dock and thousands of laughs continually echo in my mind. My grandparents owned a quaint little vacation home there and if anyone were to ask me what my favorite and most special times were growing up, that answer has always been those wonderful years. Today, as a mom, grandmother, daughter, aunt and friend, I can think of no greater pursuit, than coming home to serve and promote the beautiful Lake of the Ozarks and Missouri.

Two years ago I took a leap of faith and began building Missouri Magazine.

Today we have a strong presence and I am excited that you’re holding in your hands the inaugural issue. Missouri Magazine will bring together a wide variety of features, stories, events and businesses that too, call Missouri home. Celebrating why we LOVE Missouri!

I recently worked with a team, at a local multimedia, news organization in Atlanta, Georgia. I have vast experience in social media, account development, manage effective marketing strategies and campaigns based on multiple marketing platforms including: Publications, Digital Advertising, Mobile Advertising, Video Advertising, Branded Content & Native Advertising, Online Contests, Corporate Sponsorship’s, eNewsletters/email blasts. My experience will serve our community well.

I love Missouri and I know you do too! Please feel free to email me with your thoughts and ideas. I look forward to hearing from you and seeing you, at the Lake of the Ozarks or around Missouri.

Missouri Magazine | April 2017

helle Weissenbach

is a contemporary abstractionist painter known for her expressive use of color and textural approach to her mixed media paintings.

Layers of suggested imagery create depth and tension within her compositions enticing the viewer to reflect on their own psyche. While imagery might appear free-spirited or random, Weissenbach’s paintings are always a visual allegory which entice the viewer to consider a larger message; love, loss, change, aging, growth and human relationships. Her use of color and tonality within abstract elements intentionally suggests the conflict or adaptation between personal relationships and the changing dynamic of individual personalities when confronted with uncontrolled cultural and societal issues. Speaking visually through metaphor, she addresses her canvas with the sincerity and authenticity that one might approach a personal journal or a letter to friend. The canvas serves as an emotional outlet, pure catharsis, where she can therapeutically purge and visually record feelings and reactions to both observed situations and experiences.

Social media has become the virtual confessional for the contemporary conscience. The artist presents herself openly

own ideas, experiences, desires, and observed situations are recorded on the canvas with the fluent sincerity and immediacy of a virtual status update. All in a brush stroke. I’m interested in the idea that within the ambiguity of specific color juxtapositions and marks, these ideas within abstract forms can suggest my own emotions and communicate visually to influence the mood of others. Color and tonality within these suggested forms revealed within my process inspire ideas which address moral, spiritual, or social meaning.

As with individual personalities, colors interact differently as they adapt to the context of their environment. I find comfort within this ambiguity that becomes interpretive and dependent upon the individual experiences of the viewer in unison with my for public consumption and suggested imagery. It becomes judgement, praise and criticism... a conversation with the viewer repentance and revelations… rather than a monologue. empathy and regret… love and Emotions and| memories become loss…healing and progress. faintly familiar to the viewer, like a song you once heard...

Abstraction has become my social the flirtatious glance from media. Color and paint strokes across a crowded room...the are my voice. The rawness of my scent or perfume of late loved April 2017 | Missouri Magazine |

one... Pigments juxtaposed in complex relationships upon the canvas surreptitiously suggest visual narratives. Just as individual personalities define each social situation, color and tonality imitates life in creating the context and defining the mood of the painting. Intensity and illumination are strong personalities which alter both color and emotion, just as lighting within a space calms the spirit. My approach to color on a canvas can similarly affect one’s mood and trigger memories in a comforting, redemptive way. Intentional, discriminate application of color reflecting upon the canvas has become my catharsis...my muse...my news feed.

How would you describe your art?

My paintings are automatic and therapeutic.

I would describe them as colorfully gestural Contemporary Abstraction, or non-objective.

They don’t visually represent a specific object or location, but rather an emotion, experience or feeling.

What is one of your favorite quotes?

“I found I could say things with color and shapes that I couldn’t say any other way... things I had no words for.” - Georgia O’Keeffe Where did you study art?

UCM and the Kansas City Art Institute What are you working on currently that excites you?

I’m stepping out of my comfort zone and have just agreed to illustrate a children’s book.

Where can people view your art?

Weinberger Fine Art in the Crossroads Arts District in Kansas City, MO and my website www.rashelleweissenbach.com When is your next showing or exhibit?

My work is on display and available for viewing at Weinberger Fine Art. I have other shows in the works, but cannot announce them quite yet.

What are your thoughts on being an artist in today’s world?

www.rashelleweisenbach.com Weissenbach is an active member of the Kansas City Artist’s Coalition. She has served on the City of Lee’s Summit’s Art’s Council in Lee’s Summit, Missouri, but her refuge and love of the lake has brought her back to the Lake of the Ozarks where she spends her free time at her home in Sunrise Beach. Her Post-Graduate Studies at the Kansas City Art Institute are in the concentration of Painting. Rashelle also has a BFA in Illustration and a BSE in Art Education from UCM, a MED in Information Technology from Lesley University in Boston. She shows in regional and national shows and galleries as well works as full time art faculty for advanced painting high school and college students.

Rashelle’s work is on display within multiple private and corporate collections and galleries.

Missouri Magazine | April 2017

You have to WANT it. I mean really want it. You can’t wait for inspiration. You have to get up and work every day--not just paint, but promote yourself. It is a business as much as it is therapy.

Being a Sunday painter is wonderful if you just want to do it for yourself--and this might be the best reason. But I paint all the time because I can’t imagine not painting.

Who is your favorite famous artist? Who inspired you?

There are so many… Robert Rauschenberg, Wayne Thiebaud, Alice Neel, Chuck Close, Franz Kline.

What’s happening with your art these days?

It’s ever changing. I try to work outside of my comfort zone to avoid habitually recreating the same narrative. I aim to constantly research and find new aesthetic influences. Notice color in new contexts. Doing simple things like adding new colors to my palette helps balance the seasons and add new life to my work. I don’t want to become stale or stagnant and recreate the same image for years. I want to continue to grow.

Missouri Magazine | April 2017

What are you working on now?

Currently I am working on a children’s book for a publisher which is consuming a lot of my time.

I can’t get into the details, but I am very excited about it! I have recently worked on everything from Editorial Illustrations, book covers, animal portraits, private commissions, graphic design logos, cards, and my personal work. I can’t say I enjoy one job more than the other. I learn from them all.

Where can people view your art?

Primary Colors gallery in Independence has some of my work or you can visit www. tifanicarter.com Instagram: tifanicarter_ When is your next show?

Right now, I am working on the children’s book so I really don’t have time to focus on putting a show together. Once I complete the book I want to do a series that I have been sketching and getting rough ideas on. I am really excited about starting on that!

What are your thoughts on being an artist in today’s world?

www.tifanicarter.com

Tifani Carter grew up in Missouri and married young (still happily married for 27 years) and currently lives in Lee’s Summit.

Tifani raised 3 kids, and while they were young she was unable to go to college.

So, she would head over to the library constantly and rent any and every kind of how to book on painting and drawing. She would also read the history of the Masters and try to learn as much as she could inbetween diaper changes. On the weekends, she would go to the Nelson and be there for hours looking at all the wonderful works of art. Tifani is so grateful to live close to an amazing museum. Her parents live at the Lake of the Ozarks and she visits them often, bringing along her art. Tifani said, “it’s nice to reboot and get inspired by the beautiful imagery the lake offers”.

How do you describe your art?

I like to describe my art as detailed with personality, and touches of whimsical attributes.

I love drawing/painting animals and people.

What is one of your favorite quotes?

“I think you need to work on developing your ideas more!” John Lynch (this is from one of my amazing professors who I miss dearly) Where did you study art?

When my youngest was getting ready to head to Kindergarten, we moved closer to the community college and I was able to take a couple of classes each semester. I graduated from Longview Community College, and then went to the University of Central Missouri UCM and graduated with a BFA in Studio Art/ Illustration.

I absolutely loved every moment of school. I think for me personally it was better that I went later, rather than when I was younger. I could focus and really put all my heart and energy into all of my work.

There are so many marketing opportunities these days. And that is a great thing! But at the same time, it can be a negative – you really have to work hard and focus in order to make a name for yourself. There are so MANY avenues to market, that it is easy to get lost. Focus is essential.

You cannot give up. Ever. You must keep trying.

For me, art is essential to my being. Even if I don’t want to draw, I have to draw because it’s who I am. I am constantly evaluating and examining who I am as an artist, and constantly striving to find my niche, pushing my limits.

Who is your favorite artist? Who inspired you?

Some of my favorite current artists are: Ali Cavanaugh, Teresa Elliott, Lee Price, Benjamin Bjorklund (You can probably see a theme here!)

As for those who inspired my when I was young, (this depends on what age)? When I was around six years old I would| look for hours at my mother’s big bible and Michelangelo di Lodovico Buonarroti Simoni paintings. I still am in awe of his work. As an older teen, I was inspired by Van Gogh, but not just because of his paintings. His biography is incredible and I dug deep into his life. I still love his place in history.

Our exclusive interview with Bella Boutique Missouri Owner, Amanda White When did you become interested in fashion?

|

I’ve been interested in fashion since as early on in my life that I can remember.

I’ve always enjoyed shopping and putting together outfits and accessories.

April 2017 | Missouri Magazine |

19

What leading designers do you offer your customers?

How long have you been a business owner?

We carry a variety of boutique brands. Always adding new items.

I have been a business owner for 7 years.

Who would be your fashion role model/Icon?

What inspires you to keep up with the current fashion trends?

My role model in fashion is looking around what people are wearing in all areas of the country and try to bring in different pieces that are unique and fashion forward.

What’s your career or educational background in the fashion industry?

I have zero! Through high school I worked at different clothing retailers at the mall. Then worked for the City of Eldon, State of Missouri and for a law firm.

What are some major setbacks that you’ve had in this particular business, that you had to overcome?

My husband just recently retired after 23 years in the military. I’d say my biggest setback has been relocating for his pcs moves and having to start all over in a new location. Learning the area, styles and trends. Finding a new location etc. However, a lot of my clientele have followed me over the years and still shop with me.

Missouri Magazine | April 2017

I love being able to offer fun and unique trends. I’m on the lookout 24/7. It’s something that I look at when I’m watching TV, at an outing, scrolling through the internet. I want my customers to feel amazing in everything they get and it still be affordable.

What are your beauty secrets?

I dress for comfort, no beauty secrets lol.

What’s your favorite item in your wardrobe?

My favorite items in my wardrobe would have to be a wrap bracelet, I’ve had for two years. I wear it every single day. It says “if you can dream it, you can accomplish it”.

What motivates you to come here everyday to continue to do what you’re doing?

My friends and customers! I don’t look at this like a job, I love it. I

wake up every morning. Wondering who may walk through the door and how I can make their day more enjoyable. I enjoy visiting with everyone that walks through my front door, I love being able to select outfits and accessories for someone for a special occasion or a just because I need a new outfit day, or to help someone find that perfect gift. I have several ladies that come in several times a week just to visit and I cherish those times and to hear about what’s going on in their lives.

What are you wearing today?

I’m wearing my favorite pair of denim from the store with my new sparkly shoes we just got in.

My two favorite wardrobe pieces.

My bracelet is my favorite thing I own. It reminds me of my dad. Both of my parents have always pushed me to do my best and always given me their support. My dad is my biggest supporter and my sound of reason. He’s the one that I listen to if I’m ever in doubt or just need advice. My wonderful husband has always supported me and stood behind me every time I have a crazy idea. He’s very supportive of me and my dreams and he knows that I love what I do and it makes me happy.

Bella Boutique is a chic and sophisticated boutique stocked with variety of clothing, handbags, jewelry and shoes. At Bella Boutique you’ll discover that you can dress your best in the most unique fashion without having to go to Beverly Hills to get it. Bella Boutique is definitely a true gem in our own backyard.

CONNECTING TO LEAD Jackie Martin – A Matter of Motivation, LLC

Jackie is the founder and Chief Motivational Officer of A Matter of Motivation LLC. For more than 20 years Jackie has provided speaking and training on engagement, communication, leadership and change to small and large organizations both nationally and internationally.

Jackie loves helping team members at all levels have major “ah-ha” moments and has designed and facilitated training for thousands in industries from banking, to medical, to engineering, to non-profit.

My first job out of college was with a Savings & Loan (I just dated myself), the by-gone dinosaurs of the financial world. The C-Suite on the top floor was filled with suits and ties, while everyone else wore navy and burgundy polyester uniforms (now I am really dating myself). The strongest, most feared leaders followed the old code of leadership by power and position. Swagger, bravado, or strength are all labels that accompanied that authoritarian leadership style.

Many of today’s leaders (including myself) were weaned on that type of leadership and now struggle to find good role models to emulate. Transitioning to a more effective leadership style can be daunting, so training and coaching can become vital tools.

Even Steve Jobs had a reputation of being tough and 22

Missouri Magazine | April 2017

dictatorial with his subordinates at times.

Even though we know that disconnected, authoritarian leadership doesn’t work anymore, it’s hard to find what does work and how to make the changes needed. Today the best leaders use the Law of Connection.

Author, speaker, and leadership guru, John Maxwell, wrote one of the leading resources on leadership, “The 21 Laws of Leadership.” Among other critical leadership laws, like the Law of the Lid and the Law of Magnetism, the Law of Connection focuses on the relationship between leaders and those they lead.

Zig Ziglar said, “They don’t care how much you know, until they know how much you care.” But how much do you need to care, and how do you show that without losing your credibility as a leader?

According to Maxwell, the stronger the relationship and connection between individuals, the more likely the follower will want to help the leader. “You develop credibility with people when you connect with them and show that you genuinely care and want to help them,” says Maxwell. “And as a result, they usually respond in kind and want to help you.”

Here are FOUR ways to build that connection: 1) Connect with Yourself – People are inevitably

drawn to leaders who have confidence in themselves and where they want to lead. Leaders don’t need to know everything, but they do need to have a vision and the energy to move people toward that vision.

2) Connect by Communicating – Be genuine and authentic with your communication, because people can smell a phony a mile away. Be real – warts and all. Why try to hide your faults from the people who know them all anyway? Since, in the absence of information, people always assume the worst, good leaders communicate clearly and often – even when the news is bad. “More is more” when it comes to open communication.

3) Connect to Your Belief in Them – Sincerely believe in your team. If you can’t truly believe in the individuals on your team, then you might have the wrong players on the bus. Communicate to them how valuable they are and how much you believe in them! You might see things in them that they don’t currently see in themselves, and your belief in them can build a connection and loyalty that can last a lifetime.

4) Connect to Offer Direction and Hope – “Leaders are dealers in hope,” said French General Napoleon Bonaparte. Leadership also denotes movement. People are following you because you

are going somewhere they want to go. Provide them the vision, the hope, and the steps toward the future they desire.

One other law to remember as you build connections is the Law of Process. Building the trust and confidence we seek in a relationship takes time – it’s a process. It might start as easily as a conversation about family, sports, or school alma maters. By simply spending time with those on your team, you can build personal rapport, paving the way for a deeper connection.

Research shows the number one reason why people leave an organization is the relationship with their boss, and the number one reason why they stay is the relationship with their boss!

The power of the leader today is in the relationship, not the title. The time, effort, and focused energy spent connecting with those you lead makes all the difference in your own success.

“Don’t ever underestimate the importance of building relational bridges between yourself and the people you lead,” instructs Maxwell. “There’s an old saying: To lead yourself, use your head; to lead others, use your heart. That’s the nature of the Law of Connection. Always touch a person’s heart before you ask him for a hand.”

We all want a more enjoyable, connected and productive workplace.

So, we provide the tools and inspiration for you to develop yourself, your team and your business by offering: • Coaching for Individuals & Leaders • Staff Training & Workshops • Motivational Speaking

STRESS

Natural Mood Booster

Any type of aerobic exercise has the potential to improve your mood and calm your nerves. Walking every day can help you battle depression and increase your self-esteem. Walking is a healthy, safer alternative to taking sedatives as studies indicate that you can receive calming effects similar to mild tranquilizers from just a 20-minute walk.

The benefits of walking regularly go far beyond improved physical health. Although walking can help you lose weight and get in a healthier shape, it has additional emotional benefits Endorphin Releaser Walking and other physical activities are great you may not realize.

To increase the stress-reducing benefits of walking, it’s important to use your mind as well as your body when you walk. When you practice mindful mental exercise such as counting your steps and visualizing those numbers in your mind, you can keep your mind off other factors that stress you out. Directing your thoughts to positive things while you walk and breathing in the air not only lowers stress, but it may also give you the clarity you need to solve whatever problems have been bothering you.

Promote Positive Self-Image

Walking can certainly help improve your physical health when you do it regularly, but it also improves your mental health. As you’re able to reduce your stress and re-familiarize yourself with your own body and everything it’s capable of, you can experience a more positive self-image. When you’re out walking on your own or with your dog, you can step away from the daily stressors that wear you down and make you doubt yourself. Walking can produce great feelings of freedom and empowerment that give you the confidence you need to tackle challenging tasks without stressing.

Immediate Results

One of the best benefits of walking is that you can experience its stressrelieving effects on your very first walk. No matter what pace you choose, just getting up and walking can relieve stress and bring you the relaxation you need.

Becoming more aware of your own mind and body and the world around you as you walk can be the perfect way to unwind and find inner peace.

The William K. Busch Brewing Co.

The William K. Busch Brewing Co. is proving to be a bright, new chapter in the Busch family’s 150-year brewing history.

Chief executive officer Billy Busch, the greatgrandson of AnheuserBusch founder Adolphus Busch, launched his brewery company shortly after InBev’s acquisition of Anheuser-Busch in 2008, introducing signature American lagers Kräftig Lager and Kräftig Light.

32

|

Missouri Magazine | April 2017

The Kräftig brands are brewed in accordance with Reinheitsgebot, the German purity law dating back to 1516, which mandates that beer can only contain water, malt, hops and yeast.

“We’re one of the only products in our category using Reinheitsgebot,” says Marc Gottfried, the brewing company’s vice president of brewing.

“The big difference is our competition uses anything from corn, corn syrup, rice, foam enhancers, preservatives or color.”

These additives make the beer easier and less expensive to brew, but they also strip it of authenticity and flavor.

In contrast, Kräftig is made with only imported Hallertau hops, two- and six-row North American barley, a proprietary yeast and water from one of the purest sources in the country. “You get a more pure beer flavor [with Kräftig brands], and more of it, too,” says Gottfried, a 20-year brewing veteran who served as the head brewmaster at Morgan Street Brewery before joining the William K. Busch Brewing Co. “Where other beers are more carbonated water with beer character, we have a much more assertive beer character – it’s really clean and pleasant, but not cloying or overly bitter.”

Compared to other domestic beers, Kräftig Lager and Light give its drinkers a well-balanced lager with more hop aroma, malty notes and flavor. The brewery has found that their popularity has grown not only with mainstream beer drinkers but also with craft-beer aficionados.

“That wasn’t our expectation,” Gottfried says. “We envisioned being a beer for people who typically enjoy domestic lagers, but we also have a growing number of customers who are devout craftbeer drinkers. I find that people who drink our beer are looking for more flavor – in their food, or

any consumable product – people are looking for vibrant, flavorful, unique stuff. We fit right in with that.”

After five years on the market, the Kräftig brands have been dominant on a worldwide stage, winning 29 medals in national and international beer competitions. Kräftig Light is the reigning five-time gold medalist at the United States Open Beer Championship – an unprecedented record of back-to-back gold medals.

Most recently, Kräftig Light made its debut at the International Beer Competition, a New York City-based contest judged by beer and beverage managers from high-end

Manhattan bars and restaurants, and took home a silver medal.

parts of Kansas, Illinois and Texas.

Kräftig Lager and Kräftig Light are currently brewed and bottled out of a facility in Wisconsin, but Busch is actively looking

to bring full operations to St. Louis, continuing the family’s drive to boost their hometown economy. The brewery has also expanded their distribution in the past year beyond the St. Louis area, reaching the entire state of Missouri and

Now, the company’s two brews are rolling out a rebranding campaign, freshening up the dark greens with white, silver and gold. “Our goal is

we were an A-B InBev brand,” Busch says of the new branding. “We wanted to clear the air on that and talk a little about the family heritage and the uncompromising quality we have in our beer.”

And while it is a newer company, the Busch legacy remains all in the family.

“It is a family business – I’ve got to give credit where credit is due,” Busch says. “My son, Billy Jr., has spearheaded a lot of the creative work we have in the packaging. I think having him involved really went a long way to make our packaging look cool.”

to have an appetizing look – a brighter, fresher, cleaner look,” Busch says.

The new packaging will also include the story of the Busch brewing legacy, signed by Billy Busch, as well as the beer’s correct pronunciation (krehf-tig).

“I grew up in the minds idea of a small town, surrounded on one side by fields and the other forests. Growing up I was absorbed in the beauty of nature, imagining & daydreaming- fascinated with sunlight & magical things. I was constantly surrounded by love and laughter. I quickly learned to appreciate the little moments that make life so beautiful in the first place, including dusty records, small feet, cheek kisses and the warmth of a mid summer day.

Thus leading to my greatest passion in life, capturing those moments that make your heart skip a beat and preserving them to be remembered forever. I’ve never met a stranger, every soul has a story and I’m inspired by them all. I try to teach my children the same way that I was taught, with creativity and imagination, for they are the ones with the utmost of power.”

Graphic Design...it’s what I do, it’s what I love. I love all aspects of design. I love to tackle the challenge of coming up with the best design concept to get your message accross. I love finding the right font, the right colors, and the right layout.

I graduated from the Art Institute of Atlanta with a degree in Graphic Design in 2009. As a wife of 17 years at the time and a mother to two kids who were in the 3rd and 5th grade at the time, it was a great accomplishment to finish college and be an example to my kids to follow your dreams and do what you love.

Fast forward to now. I am celebrating my 25th wedding anniversary this year, my daughter is a sophmore in college and my son is a senior in high school. When I was approached to help kick off this magazine I was really stoked. It’s exciting and refreshing to get to learn all the things about Missouri and see why every one LOVE’S Missouri so much!

Emma (Boles) Young and Dustin Young of Stover, Missouri met in High School, during Mrs. Halloran’s art class. Emma never thought she would marry the guy from high school, who drove her crazy every day! However, everything changed after high school, they started dating and fell in love!

After a few years of dating Emma, Dustin knew she was the one for him! With the help of Dustin’s sister, Megan, he planned a proposal. They coordinated a time to take what Emma thought was family pictures for Christmas gifts. Little did she know, it was the day she would get engaged! Dustin got down on his knee and presented Emma with the most beautiful engagement ring she had ever seen. With family by her side, Emma said, YES! On September 10, 2016, the happy couple tied the knot in a family friend’s field decorated in a rustic chic style. This style incorporated the couple’s love of country simplicity with a touch of romance. Everyone in the wedding party wore boots, they had vintage trucks as a backdrop, and wooden doors for the bride’s grand entrance! The bride honored her late Grandpa Leon, by carrying a picture of him attached

Selecting Beverag for a

by Chelsea Bessey, Private Event Director

There’s a lot of pressure when being the host of a party. You want to impress your guests and make sure everyone is happy. With so many details to plan, one thing that doesn’t have to be stressful is the booze!

I’ve been the Private Events Director with Les Bourgeois for 7 years and there is definitely a pattern.

When providing alcohol for an event, an average group will consume a drink per hour. Typically, it is evenly split between beer & wine. However, I always need to stress words like “average”, “patterns” and “typically” because everybody is different. Things that can sway you from the norm would be providing transportation, time of day, and the nature of the event. Most of my clients just provide beer/ wine. Cocktails are always well received but not necessary for a successful party (especially if you’re on a budget).

For beer, something lighter, such as Bud Light, is generally the biggest crowd pleaser. For those that want a craft beer, a pale ale or wheat is the way to

52

|

Missouri Magazine | April 2017

go as the heavier varieties like IPAs, Porters, Stouts, etc. won’t have the widest appeal.

With the wine, I always recommend a variety of 4-6 (2 sweet, 2 semi dry, and 2 dry with a red/white in each category).

The most popular combination from Les Bourgeois’ selection would be: Riverboat Red (sweet red), Riverboat White (sweet white), Pink Fox (sweet but not too sweet blush), Vignoles (semi-sweet white), Solay (dry white), and Norton (full-bodied dry red). If you only wanted two options, Vignoles & Norton are the way to go.

Let’s say you are hosting a wedding reception on a Saturday evening for 100 guests with the bar open from 6:3010:30 pm. You want to provide beer/wine but aren’t too sure what everybody likes. I would recommend the following: 1 case of Riverboat Red,1 case of Vignoles, 1 case of Solay, 1 case of Norton, a full keg of Bud Light & a pony keg of Broadway Brewery’s Organic Honey Wheat. There are about 50 glasses of wine in a case, 160 12oz servings in a full keg, and 80 12oz servings in a pony keg.

If you are providing a shuttle

P

ges

Party service and plan on “kicking it up” then I would add 1 case of Pink Fox and bump the pony keg up to a full.

By following these simple guidelines you will be sure to throw the party of a lifetime! Just remember, don’t sweat the small stuff and have fun.

After all, it is a celebration!

10 TIPS

for Selecting Outdoor Furniture

by Lidancie Arts

When you’re creating a fun and functional entertainment patio, you need great outdoor furniture that fits your style. After all the effort you put into building your outdoor patio, complimenting it with the right furniture gives you the perfect place to relax. To select the best outdoor furniture for your outdoor entertainment area, start with these helpful tips.

ONE

Consider the space’s function Start by considering how you want the outdoor area to function. Will it be a dining area, a living room style space or combination of both?

Create a list of the activities you plan on doing in the space and use that to determine the kind of outdoor furniture you purchase.

TWO

Try out the furniture Before purchasing any outdoor furniture for your patio, try it out by sitting on it and moving it around, if possible. Some outdoor furniture looks pleasing to the eye but can be uncomfortable or too heavy to move easily.

THREE

Choose low maintenance To promote the idea of a fun and relaxing space, choose low maintenance exterior furniture that won’t keep you painting, sanding and cleaning for hours annually. Outdoor furniture designs made from rattan, teak or metal are durable and require minimal upkeep.

FOUR

Consider storage needs To keep your outdoor furniture looking its best, you need a place to store it when you’re not using it.

As durable as outdoor furniture can be, it still benefits and has a longer lifetime if you store it out of the

54

|

Missouri Magazine | April 2017

elements when appropriate. Foldable patio furniture or furniture that’s easy to take apart are good options.

FIVE

Incorporate color Outdoor furniture comes in a wide selection of colors, which means you’re not restricted to using natural wood tones or neutral colors such as white or beige. Choosing colorful cushions or finishes for your outdoor furniture creates a space that expresses your own personal style.

SIX

Fit the furniture to the space Overcrowding a patio with furniture is unattractive and can inhibit the flow of foot traffic. Place enough furniture in the space to provide comfort without overcrowding it. If you need additional space, consider extending your entertainment area into the lawn or garden.

SEVEN

Quality over quantity While it may cost less to buy several pieces of plastic chairs and tables for your patio, they’re not designed for durability or longevity. It’s better to invest in quality pieces that can withstand regular use and the elements without fading or suffering damage. Look for online reviews of the outdoor furniture you’re considering and ask your neighbors what has worked best for them.

EIGHT

Multipurpose furniture Even if your patio has ample space, it’s a good idea to invest in multipurpose outdoor furniture.

Ottomans that serve as a central table can convert to extra seating or foot rests at needed. A simple bench that provides casual seating can be pulled up to a dining table for those extra guests. That round side table can provide an additional surface for eating in a pinch.

NINE

Add a rug

Placing the right rug amid indoor furniture can help tie a room together, and the same holds true for an outdoor space. Finding a quality, all-weather rug that coordinates with your outdoor furniture can provide cushioning underfoot and a cooler surface to walk on than a bare patio on a sunny day. In addition, an outdoor rug can bring the entire outdoor space together in style.

TEN

Provide shade On hot days, the sun can become too warm to remain outside for very long on your patio. Purchase attractive patio umbrellas or partial enclosures that coordinate with your outdoor furniture and provide needed shade.

By selecting the right outdoor furniture for your patio, you can create an area that everyone will enjoy during nice weather.
