Goodbye to 2022, The Camellia, Thunder Bay, On

Thunder Bay Flower & Gift shop


It's time to say Goodbye to 2022, and to welcome a New Year. This Christmas has been better as we could gather for a meal with our Family & friends. The isolation of the last couple of years has been difficult for most of us. This Holiday season we have had extreme cold, and a lot of snow across most of Canada. Thank you to all of you who have supported our small business, The Camellia, this past Year!

It's almost time to welcome 2023! How are you celebrating?

Entering 2023, we may resolve to organize our belongings. So many of us misplace our stuff on a daily basis, and waste so much time looking for things. Curtain hooks like the ones above, work quite well to hang up assorted homeless items. It sees like every surface gets cluttered with items, as most of us can't be bothered to put things away.

We all have creative pursuits we wish we had time for, like Painting. We tell ourselves, when we have done this task, or paid the bills, then we will paint. Creative pursuits have been proven to help our mental health, so it's important to find the time to pursue them.

Sewing is another creative task that we may wish we had time to pursue. We may resolve to stop endlessly scrolling on social media, which would free up some time to sew.

Wishing you luck with any changes you would like to make in 2023. Happy New Year! We will see you after Jan. 15th. 2023!
