We have entered our new "Selah Season". Selah - is a pause, a break, a stop, a time made to calmly reflect and ponder all that has gone before and what perhaps might lay ahead.
During this time I've been finishing a few of my million unfinished ideas - one included reframing this antique oil painting with a beautiful vintage frame I have been hanging onto for years.
The antique extension ladder is a gift from a beautiful customer and Rotorua Artist. She used it as an easel in her studio. I like to think it holds creativity in its core and this permeates my house. She was always sharing with me stories of what she had made from the bits and pieces she purchased over the years, from the shabby chic ribbon she added to the hem & collar of her dearly departed husbands shirt, to the pieces of linen muslin she bought to hanging as curtains or the candlesticks she bought too many of....these are the bitter sweet memories of the lives that came through our store and wove themselves into the story of Grace and Glory.
Selah - reflecting.
