Welcome The Year of the Sheep (Goat/Ram)

Submitted by Jan Buerge on

Depending on your translation, February 19 marks the first day of the Year of the Sheep - or Goat - or Ram.

What can we be happy about and look forward to?

In the 12-animal Chinese Zodiac, the Sheep is kind, tender and sympathetic. Sheep are creative and elegant. Because of their softer side, they are symbolic of peace and harmony.

The Year of the Sheep follows a tumultuous Year of the Horse, and heralds a year with a much more calm atmosphere. Hooray!

Lucky Bamboo - Lucky You

Submitted by Jan Buerge on

Bamboo has long been the Chinese symbol for strength and a strong life that's filled with prosperity

One Bamboo Stalk = Simplicity and Meaningful Life.
Even with one stalk of Lucky Bamboo you are blessed and surrounded with good energy.

Two Bamboo Stalks = LOVE! or double your luck.
People often send two stalks of bamboo as an expression of love. Two will also help you double your luck.

Our World's Window continuing year-long thirtieth anniversary has celebrated that "The Joy is in The Journey." Of course there are and have been many, many kinds of journeys in the life of our store experience. Not all journeys come full circle, but these three do. 

Coat and Sweater Drive for Rose Brooks Center Now Through November 13, 2014 at World's Window

Submitted by Jan Buerge on

It's that time of year again. As the weather gets cooler, perhaps with some frost on the ground, we start pulling out sweaters and jackets and coats to keep us warm throughout the winter. At Rose Brooks Center, the women and children that arrive for shelter from domestic violence often come without coats and many times without any additional clothing besides what they are wearing.

Sally's Party

Submitted by Jan Buerge on

In late June we finally got to host the very special private shopping spree party for Sally Daily. Sally was our winner from our April 30th Anniversary give-way. But when Sally decided to share her winnings with her daughters and daughters-in-law, it took a little longer to plan an evening party that could include everyone. In the end, one family member couldn't make it, but all of the rest of us had a fabulously fun evening. Congratulations again to our winner, Sally Daily. Thank you for sharing your family with us!

Travel Lightly - With Just 6 Items of Clothing

Submitted by Jan Buerge on

Traveling this summer? Want to travel light? How many outfits can you make out of 6 clothing items (plus a scarf, a belt and several pieces of jewelry) that will take you from the warmest weather to chilly evenings? At World's Window we sent Lanie and Della on an initial hunt for 4 different tops, a skirt and fun crop pants - all varied in colors and patterns. Then came the fun as they mixed and matched all those items and came up with tons of options mixing and matching the various items.
