Hello Spring! Normally we are jumping up and down in excitement, as #Spring is our favourite time of the year! It's a signal for the end of Winter, and a time to put out all our Spring decor, and get ready for Easter celebrations. Spring also means the Spring Home & Garden Show at the Canadian Lakehead Exhibition, sadly this event had to be cancelled due to COVID-19. At this time, the Canadian Government has told us that it is imperative to practice social distance.
We know a lot of you are looking forward to Planting your Summer garden with flowers and vegetables. This is still going to happen, so while it is important to get prepared for the virus, it is equally important to act as normal as possible, under these circumstances. Spring means starting your bulbs indoors, or starting seeds to plant outside in the Summer.
What colour combinations are you planning on for your backyard Patio? Pink sunpatiens and grey Dusty Miller is always a winning combination for partial shade or full sun. Here at #TheCamellia, you can order planters for Gift delivery. The planters above will be available starting just before #MothersDay. Due to the Virus outbreak, you can phone in orders ( 807-475-3551) and we deliver in the Thunder Bay area, and Slate River valley.
If you suffer from anxiety, looking at beautiful scenes like this one above (photographed in British Columbia) can aid in calming, especially when used in conjunction with deep breathing techniques.
Spring means Bunnies and Easter chocolate Bunnies and eggs. We have beautiful hand-made bunnies at The Camellia. Perfect for Gift giving to a special Grandchild!
Easter is almost here, and a new reality, no Church Masses due to the ban on public gatherings. Churches will be live streaming. Funeral homes will be doing the same. We have unique #SympathyGifts which you can order, and we can deliver to someone's Home. Shown above is a willow cross, with sign. We also have crosses with faux flowers.
For many of us, engaging in Painting is a way to stay grounded, and helps us focus on something other than the virus. Call ahead and place you order, we will tint, and have it ready for you to pick up, or we can deliver ( $).
