Spring Opening....Winter Versus Spring....We Won!

Let's keep score...
Ok...we are well aware that it looked like this...

 But we had this!
The Flowers had to win out over the icicles.
Hardly even noticed those icy little things.

And the sight of this would warm
any heart and it most definitely
added a point to our score.
Real flowers in our window boxes 
on March 1st...
(Thanks to Cross Creek Nursery)
Come on now...another point for 
Old and Everlasting and Spring!
We keep the lead!

Oh...but this...
a dreaded sight...
Our sweet customer took the day off
 to come to Old and Everlasting
and got stuck outside...
Problem was solved and we had a
very content customer warm and cozy
inside the store surrounded by Springtime...
Maybe a tie on this one????
we maintain the lead...(-:

Can you see it?
ahhh....SPRING...
It was indeed everywhere you looked...
Not just a hint of it...
truly everywhere...
can you see the seeds for
Spring Planting?
Yet another plus for
Old and Everlasting!

Sunny Spring days are coming you know...
we are forever the optimists...
Optimism...
for sure a point for that!

There they are!!!!!
SEEDS!!!!
(cheating a little...extra mileage on the seeds)
And they were selling like hotcakes..
More proof that we are hopeful and 
positive!
Oh boy another point!!
Winning out over Winter is
quite easy!

First glimpse inside our door....
why would you want to look back
at the white stuff outside?
Of course not...
close the door and step inside
SPRINGTIME....

COLOR...
Makes you feel good doesn't it?
no more blah,dreary days...
Let's plan for warmer weather..
A pretty scarf or lovely 
jacket will do the trick!
Of course it will!
Yet another point...
We win...we win!

Thank you for visiting

Old and Everlasting on our 

Spring 2013 Opening Weekend!

Remember now...you must keep

experiencing Springtime in order for

it to arrive!

If you do that it will be here

faster than you can snap your fingers!

Really and truly...

OH~~~~~ but wait...wait....

we have BONUS points here!

A friendly goat or two waiting at 
the gate for company...
Sir Hemingway is quite convinced
it's Spring!
He is more than ready to say hello
and maybe check out your packages...
FYI....they have been known
to taste a paper bag or two!
So bring on Spring
say the GoAtS!

Fresh and New and Happy...for YOU!

One of our very most favorites....
A Fresh New Card and Stationery line...

Love the line and love the folks who

created it! 

Take a look...

it's a happy little line...

Sweet Notes, Pens,Pencils,Stationery
and Cards...
You can tell when someone LOVES
what they do...
That would be this line...
and that would be why we LOVE it so...

A little birdie told me that there
are many more Happy things to see...
we'll start with just a few...

Would pretty colored bottles sitting
on a windowsill make you happy?

What about the pleasant sight of
American made Birdhouses?
Do we see a little Smile?

We hope to make your Spirit soar...
with some of our favorite books...
a reason to be happy we believe...

Would
Colorful Spring flowers
waiting for you make you just a
wee bit giddy?

Now look if all that does not make you happy
we certainly will...
and if we don't make you feel happy
inside then we think that maybe
someone may have gotten out of
the wrong side of the bed this morning...
So...we'll be here waiting for you
to appear...
We are sitting in a far corner waiting
for admirers...
By the way we have friends here too
 and there's lots more to see!
Clothing, Accessories and so many
pretty Spring Scarves you will be
grinning from ear to ear!
We'll all see you this weekend
as Old and Everlasting opens
it's doors to begin it's

The Fabric of February...

Snowflakes still falling...

Love is in the air...

A reason to be happy 

and a reason to share...

Sharing what gets us thru this winter

month short in days and LONG in

Anticipation..................

Enjoy the Fabric of Our February...

Goats!

Yes goats...

a daily reason to Smile and Laugh...

and perhaps LEARN....

Always always look UP!
Don't fret March is on it's way!

It's best to stick close by a true friend...
they are always there to help...

Rest...Read...and be inquisitive...
Let's see... what new discoveries can
I make and share with others?

 Because Sharing is what it's all about...
time...space...ideas...
why not happily share all those things...

And Sometimes a time out is
totally necessary...
Rethink and Regroup...
and get back on track...

Always look your very best...
A February make over might be fun.

Run...Jump...Play...
do whatever you love to do and do
it with great JOY!
Because it really is all joyful!

Look out your window....
there's always something lovely
to look at....
be thankful for the Beauty you see...

And don't forget to put your
HAPPY Hat on!
Think positive
and smile inside and out!
Your inside and outside smile
will always cheer someone up!

A little snow a little cold....
can't stop the excitement from what I've been told...
March and Spring are on their way so don't 
forget to enjoy today!
For that is what we are here to do...
and so I pass this on to you...
the fabric of our days 
are what makes us whole...
so be sure that your fabric
is good for the soul...

Two Words...

 Two words to start our year...

Where do we begin to Thank you for
24 years?
 How do we find other words 
that say the same thing but
 in a way BIGGER way?
We've searched and searched...
notes on papers...
thoughts jotted down...
It was taking too much time...
So here we are saying a plain
and simple
Thank You...

We simply want to say
Thank you...
for helping us build this little business
into something that has lasted 24 years!
Wow!!!  
So on we go to 25 years with much 
anticipation
and excitement...
We look forward to filling the store
with things that you will enjoy!
And that's the very best part!
Sharing it with all with you...
Our Wonderful Customers!
And may we share with you 
two more words?



Think Spring!

Think it...dream it...plan for it...
It will be here before you know it...
and so will we!
We'll be back in the swing of Spring in 
 early March....all set to go...
all set to begin our 25th year celebration!
And that's because of you!
So we close with a simple
Thank you...
and a request that you check back 
with us 
every now and then...
We'll be busy over the next two months
making Old and Everlasting even better
than before...
We can hardly wait...
Stay warm and cozy dear friends...
We'll be back soon with sneak peeks
and more...
