There’s one thing we don’t fight about: life can be pretty stressful. I’ve always had one great support system, though, and that’s my relationship to flowers and flowers to me. The more I focus on the magical mystery of flowers, the faster stress just evaporates. What a gift of nature!
It’s just an honor to have someone wear our designs. It makes all this social isolation seem easier. It feels good to make some type of contribution. We would love to see the masks you have chosen, even if you did not purchase them from us. You really wouldn’t believe how much laughter goes on in this house when we feel we are reaching someone out there in the cyber world!!! We really are a Mom and Pop shop!
It is easy to miss the beauty in life. These new soft pink floral pattern designs are created infused with soft joy, appreciation, peace and receptivity for better things in your life.

Today, I am going to take a jug of bleach and make the house brilliant with good cheer. I am going to give it a good old try! We are alive! We are here and able to make the world a better place by connecting to a happier level of existence. We are able to live in the state of happiness. We just have to stop and choose to put on a happy face, to think of something more pleasant, to think of the ones in our home. Bet they can use a fellow housemate who has a positive outlook on life.
As a creative personality, I like to entertain myself with what I wear. So, face mask designs are fun for me. I’m about to add a couple more to my stash. Want to help me pick the best two? Here’s a 15-piece sample of our women’s collection. What‘s your favorite?

Also we are working on Face Shield designs. Seems a bit less restrictive and personable way of protection.

Face mask covers have been both a challenge and an opportunity for this high risk, older couple to make a contribution. What gets us up in the morning are thoughts of our family, especially our grandchildren, our friends and neighbors. We can visit over FaceTime or play remotely on PS4 games. Now we spend the major part of the day painting on our iPads or on canvas, able to offer them to the world. We love this connection with you. So, thank you!
As my mother often reminded me: It never hurt anyone’s eyesight by seeing things on the brighter side of life.
The designs we work on daily keep us in the sane, happy zone. Each of us are asked to play our roles in the best way possible. Hopefully these moments of sharing with the world help boost your confidence in the beautiful person you will always be — no matter what the circumstances.
Please share this with your family, friends and neighbors.
Be Prepared! This was one of my Dad’s favorite cheers!

The ritual of drinking coffee, tea or your favorite morning drink can be emotionally beneficial as you begin your day.
My soul awakes To the thought of heaven As I drive over the hills To get a glimpse of the ocean And hear the crash of waves. My heart beats fast To the joys of heaven As I step out of the car To feel the breeze upon my face And find a world of
For the past couple of years I have taken a few lessons on-line to play the piano. I soon took to learning a few chords and becoming lazy. Most of my family play by ear so I thought, why not me? At any rate, today I decided to play songs for spring and put them
With the unique nature of life, we often miss understanding others, and even ourselves. This can throw us out of balance, leaving peace behind. Appreciating the beauty around us, accepting what takes place in the moment, and then cooperating with that moment, can lead to renewed peaceful living.
You probably have wished you could live right on the beach. Haven’t we all? We can watch the vacation and buy-a-house-on-the-beach videos. Or we can take a piece of paper and lose ourselves in drawing our special, private beachfront fun land. This is how I spent this afternoon. I’ve been playing with a digital rendition

There are many opportunities to change unhappy situations around us. I guess we just don’t know that we have that power!

This is my contribution. I am writing to those who, like me, are not particularly inclined to speak up politically to deaf ears.

Even when you are having fun, life slips by. Even when you sulk around, life slips by. Even when you fall in love, life slips by. Even when you are sick and frail, life slips by. There’s no way to stop the time you have in this one body. You might as well hug yourself
