Fire People Have Energy to Burn

Fire-People Have Energy to BURN   Do you remember the last time you were really passionate about something? It could have been something quiet; perhaps a breath-taking view of the lake?

Ask Kathryn about Purchasing Used Clothing

  Q: Hi Kathryn. I purchased a suit at the Thrift Store and my girlfriend says it is creepy. Could this have a hex on it or something? How can a suit be creepy?

The textiles they chose for this display are also a classy, pewter grey and crisp white combination. The orange designs on the pillows…

The Empty Desk

The Empty Desk What happens to productivity when you work beside an empty desk and chair? Are you happy that no one is in ‘your space’? Or, are you aware of the empty void nearby?
