My Serenity....

Simply sharing favorite snapshots that

Graced our world recently...
Calling them Serenity Snapshots....
Quiet sights...

Three birds on a wire...
chirping their little hearts away...
listen to me...
listen to me...
I'm listening to your peaceful song...
are you telling us to sing? 

Our sweet and very old goat...
Finding pleasure in the sunshine...

I see you Chester....
enjoying your life in the barnyard...

A welcoming path calling
us to see what lies beyond....
We follow....

A sight that calms the spirit...
We feel it...

Nantucket Window boxes
and flowers...
an experience...

Nantucket Hydrangeas...
Like no other...

Nantucket Red,White,and Blue...
Summer beauty for us to behold...

Nantucket Sunsets...
awe inspiring...

Toes in the sand...
Our Serenity...
thankful...
Time away...
batteries recharged...
time to work again...
time to laugh...
time to be thankful for vacations...

Laughter...
what's it's all about...

Time to work on our Annual
Barn Sale!
Be back soon with the
exciting details!

What's new Wednesday...

Can you believe your EYES?
Don't they look like real candles?
And wait till you see them in person!

These fireless candles look so realistic.

Dancing and flickering...
Sweetly scented...

 Made of real wax...

Safe and so pretty...

We decided they are the perfect candle!

These battery powered candles

were developed by Disney and are now
available at Old and Everlasting.
 They are 5 inch pillars
  which run on two D alkaline

 batteries with the average battery

 life being 240 hours. 

And better yet just set the timer function.

 It will flicker for 5 hours and turn off
for 19 hours. Set it and forget it!
Our customers are Loving these candles!
We are happy to say that our second shipment
 has just arrived.
Available in Ivory,Sage, and Burgundy.


What's new Wednesday will return...
maybe a new arrival...
maybe a new discovery...
or maybe just for fun!


We'll see you soon!
  

Before you Fly....

Hi little birdie...
and what is it that we can say to 
you before you go out in to
this BIG World?
the thought occurred to me as
this baby bird spent the entire afternoon
chirping outside the shop door.....

And what would be most important to know
BEFORE YOU FLY?
 How about travel slow and watch
 where you are going...even though
sometimes we don't know where 
 we are going... 
We all take flight in our lives....


A new Experience ahead?
A new Job in the future?
How about a new Friendship? 
Every single day we open the door and 
out we go!
out in to our World...


So what should we keep really,really
 close in our minds and hearts at all times?
Little reminders so that we keep our
world a Happy world....
Maybe this... 


~Be Ready...
Make a plan! Of course surprises
will come along the way but if you have
 a grand idea or a teenie tiny idea of
 what direction to go 
you will be on the right road.
   A slight turn here or there
only makes the journey more interesting...

 Be ready for the side trips,
the detours,the unexpected...
that's where the lessons show up...


~Embrace...
Welcome and embrace those who
 help you
 along the way...
and when it's time to return the 
caring love and support be sure
to be there for them...
You will know when it's time...

~Find some goodness
 in everyone...
because it's there...
sometimes you have to be extra patient...
and that's a good thing too.


~Observe Quietly...
sometimes it's best to watch and listen.
Making a lot of noise will always 
get you attention but it's always best to
speak little and hear much.
Keep ever so still and listen... 


~Respect others...
their time,their space,their feelings, 
 thoughts, and hearts...
And this is just as important 
for you...
 Surround yourself with those
that Respect You...


~Entertain others with a cheerful,happy,
and kind spirit...
Mild words and graceful actions are
what we should strive for...
Smile your way thru life....


~You must always remember that there 
are many others flying around you.
 We all fly to our own Song.
 Be yourself and Sing to your
 own Song. The key is to be 
harmonious and make sweet music together.
la,la,la,la,la...


~Open your heart and your mind to 
many possibilities and keep your 
heart sincere. Work hard and keep busy...That's how you will 
Grow...


~Understand that promises are meant
 to be kept. And whatever promise we 
make we should carry through with our
 best foot forward...
Make good promises and
Always do your best...


~Faith is necessary to get through Life...
We all need a higher power to rely on.
Be prayerful and your prayers will
be answered...
Faith is like a warm little light
inside your being....it will always 
give you peace...


~Live Generously and Abundantly...
enjoy all the gifts that you have been given
and share them freely with others.
That's what it's all about...


YOU...
are one of a kind...
Think about that...
So always be good to yourself...
take care of yourself...
that means your health and your heart...
protect your heart...
Listen to that little voice inside when it
is talking to you...
Listen...it will lead you to where you 
should be...
Stay healthy in mind,body and spirit, 
and you will
Bless others by who You are...

So little birdie... I thank you for showing
up in My World and I wish you well.
Please wish me the same...
I will wonder where you are in this
big world but I will know it is 
where you are supposed to be...
