Hello

It’s been a while since I’ve posted, I’m still adjusting to this retired life

It’s weird, I get kind of anxious when I walk back into the store, a wave of emotions come over me

I guess when you create a dream, it’s hard to let go ❤️

For me it’s who I was, I could fill my space with anything I loved and design displays for people to enjoy ❤️

That was my real focus, to see people smile and enjoy themselves as they walked through my store ❤️

Now to have retired and everything came to a complete stop, are the feelings I’m moving through now

I never ever expected to be so emotional, still ❤️

Don’t get me wrong, it was my decision, owning your own small business is very time consuming and I was missing out on so much, my business consumed me no matter where I was, on vacation, in the middle of the night, early mornings, I still stayed connected

Business is so different now a days with technology, cell phones and social media, you never catch a break

Again I loved it ❤️

But now I’ve promised myself to get back into the store and liquidate what little inventory I have left

It may be a slow process, there are so many things I want to keep, but I have to be honest with myself, and part with some

If you follow along and are interested in anything, just message

Paddle board necklace now $10.00 each
Leather inspiration bracelet $10.00 each
Feather bracelet $5.00

Have a wonderful day ❤️

Well if you remember I was telling you the things I try to do in the winter months

Well today was the day to let fresh air in, not exactly sure today was the best choice, but the house is now fresh with only a little snow inside 😜

My kids think I’m crazy, but I also do this at their house, when I’m looking after the grandkids

One day at my son’s house I missed closing a window, oops 😜

Yes, it’s good to briefly open windows in winter for short periods (5-15 minutes) to air out your house, improving air quality by reducing pollutants, moisture, and odors, but balance this with energy efficiency by doing it quickly and on milder days to avoid excessive heat loss. This “flushing” method introduces fresh air, helps control humidity (preventing mold), and dilutes indoor contaminants, benefiting health without significantly impacting heating costs.

Anyone else do this?

Winter can be long for some

Here’s the thing, try and change your mindset, look at it differently

Winter is not my favourite season, for us, it means a lot more work and juggling our day to day life around Snow, part of business

But this is what I’m embracing in the winter months,

First of all it’s okay to do nothing (still having a hard time with that one)
Shovelling is exercise, but be careful
I go outside every day, even for a few minutes, fresh air is good
Open the windows once in a while to get rid of the stale air in your house
Learn a new hobby
The ice has been a challenge, but putting on my snowshoes and going for a walk works well
Looking out the window at the fresh falling snow and seeing the beauty of it, it really brightens things up
Pour that cup of herbal tea, and just relax, it’s okay
Visit friends and Family that maybe can’t get out, break up their day, who doesn’t like company 🥰

Winter is naturally a time for rest, reflection and recovery, it’s like natures cycle of slowing down, conserving energy, and preparing for Spring, with shorter days influencing our bodies to need more sleep and quiet downtime for physical and mental rejuvenation

So if you are struggling, try to make a few small changes, it may be just what you need ❤️

‘ Even in the coldest months, warmth and kindness can light up the world ‘

One kind word can warm three winter months ❤️

As we head into a New Year, I want to take this opportunity, to once again, thank each and every one of you for supporting my dream as The Welder’s Wife ❤️

I’m still missing it, but at the same time, wondering where the days go

May the New Year bring you health, happiness, peace and prosperity

And may it be filled with joy, lots of love and laughter

Happy New Year ❤️🎉

Cheers

Hello Winter and Happy Winter Solstice ❄️

Christmas time

It’s amazing how quickly the Christmas season arrives

This year being my first year closed, hit different

I really missed the hustle and bustle of happy Customers ❤️

But I also had the chance to travel 4 hours to catch my grandkids Christmas concert in their new school

You would think I would have myself organized with so much free time, nope

I’m still over here trying to find time to get it done

This Christmas tree skirt is a Special one, made of course by my Mom ❤️

The designs she chose are totally us, I’ve only highlighted 3, I’m forever grateful for these treasures ❤️

I hope you find time to treasure something special too

Treasure is to cherish, it involves holding something dear, protecting it, or valuing it highly

Have a Wonderful day ❤️

Today is like dejavu to last January 3, only a month early

As I was outside shovelling the snow, it brought back memories to last January

Do you remember the winter of non stop Snow

There is no way we could have another winter like the last, is there ❄️

Well there is really nothing we can do about, except embrace it 🥰

I know for some, it keeps you trapped and isolated, if you are one of those people, please reach out to Family, friends or your neighbours, they would love to hear from you and help you out

If you are able, try and get outside, just for a breath of fresh air, even for a few minutes, it makes a difference

Honestly, you all know I’m a summer person, but will try and make the best of the winter months

On the positive side, yes, there is always a positive side, it’s very pretty, it brightens things up, and years ago, Canadian winters were always like this, we’ve just been pretty lucky

For those that have to drive in it, slow down, take your time and arrive there safely

Those impatient drivers, well that’s another story

Stay Safe and reach out if you need ❤️

Now back out to shovel 😜

Happy December

Where oh where has the time gone

As we head into a busy season for most Small Business, I hope you will support them

They are the backbone of your community, they are the ones that still hand out bags(a big one for me) and truly care about their Customers

Since my retirement of my retail store, this has to be the hardest time being Closed, Christmas was my favourite time of year as The Welder’s Wife

However, my store still has a few great pieces, displays, and things we’ve decided not to keep, I will be posting those hopefully come January

Also the store is fully decorated for the Holidays, as I was decorated for a private event on the weekend, and have another one this month, so if you are still looking for a quaint space to hold your DIY workshop, please send me a message

As December unfolds, May your days be merry and your heart be light ❤️
