A friend of ours here at
Outer Banks Country Store recently suffered the loss of their beloved
dog that passed away. If you're an
animal lover and have ever
lost a pet, then you know the heartbreak firsthand. Our
pets are an important member of our families.
So,
in an effort to help them feel just a little bit better, we did what we
do best. We sent them a sign. It turns out, that little gesture was
just what the doctor ordered. We received a note saying that they were writing through teary eyes, how happy they were to receive the thoughtful gift.
Such
a small token, but it can help to relieve a friend's pain just a
little. Whatever the circumstances, even if it put's a smile on
someone's face just temporarily, then it's worth its weight in gold.
Simply hanging an
Always Kiss Me Goodbye sign above the front door or an
Always Kiss Me Goodnight sign above the bed, serves as a reminder to never take your loved ones for granted.
Or the
recent Grad,
who is excited, but who also might be experiencing some anxiety at the
same time about all of the unknowns that lie ahead, a simple
You Got This
sign speaks volumes of the pride you feel for them, the confidence and
the faith you have in them, that they are ready to take on the world.
We've been making our
rustic wood signs here on the
Outer Banks of North Carolina for over 20 years. Even though they
start at just $6.98, the smiles and joy that they bring are priceless and there's
real value in that.
So, "What's in a sign", you may ask? Well, let's see:
Love,
support,
friendship,
humor,
spirit,
motivation,
inspiration,
encouragement,
faith, a peace offering, an olive branch, a
laugh, a memory, a
reminder, a
confidence
boost or even a simple I'm thinking of you. Often, when words fail us, a
sign can say it all. So what's in a sign? Everything, my friends.
