I would like to take the time to thank you, on behalf of myself and my family, for the love and kind words. Unfortunately, we have now lost my mother as well. Say some extra prayers for my kids. To lose 2 very important people in such a short time, I have no words except completely devistated. We ask if you can not donate to please share to help take care of Rick's final expense. We are so grateful for the love and support during this very hard time.

A lot of you had the pleasure of meeting my husband, whether he was taking your order or ringing you out. Please keep our family in your thoughts and prayers. It has been especially hard on our children. The hardest thing about being a mother is not being able to ease the pain of your children.

Share memories & support the family

After much thought, I have finally made a decision about the future of The Country Life. It is with the heaviest of hearts and deepest sadness that I have decided to close the doors of the shop. I have looked at the past year, the rising cost of materials, the decline in the quality of wood, and major life changes, which has lead me to this decision. I am working on orders that were taken previous to closing during the summer. I have faced a health issue which has kept me out of the workshop for a few weeks so I am behind schedule.I have a few orders that have deposits, but they need their final touches. I will call those customers once the orders are ready to make pick up arrangements. This has been the hardest decision I had to make. Years of friendships have been built along side of the products built. I treasure each and everyone of you who have been such loyal customers and became dear friends. Saying thank you will never show enough appreciation. I am not completely walking away from crafting. I will continue to make things on the side and will post on my page to sell. I am not sure what the future holds and may consider a store front down the line. THANK YOU ALL for the years you have kept my doors open and my heart full! Love to each and every one of you...there are tears being shed as I type each and every word of this. Please take care of yourselves. Continue making your houses into warm, inviting homes with your love for country decor!

With so much love and gratitude,
Karen
