✨ Christmas Connection Contest! ✨
To celebrate our love of nostalgia with our love for our customers, we are holding a Christmas movie connection contest.

Each time, we will feature pieces of décor (available for purchase at Old September!) that is connected to a classic Christmas movie - you guess what movie the items are connected to!

To enter, comment on the original post with the title of the movie you think the photos represent. Entries must be made within 24 hours of the original post. One entry per person per post… But, comment on both Facebook and Instagram for an extra entry.

All names with correct guesses will be entered for a draw to win a free beverage of choice each time we make a Christmas Connection Contest post!

Plus, correct entries from all posts will go into the Grand Prize draw right before this Christmas season wraps up.

HERE IS ROUND ONE 🎥 🍿

Thanks to everyone for coming out and about for the Christmas Market in Gilbert Plains this weekend! What a way to get in the spirit!

Speaking of getting in the spirit, Christmas cards is one of the best festive traditions. If you’d like to make some that look like this, we are hosting a workshop this Saturday, November 22. Anne and Sandra will guide you through creating six of your own bespoke and beautiful paper cards.

Many people thought I was crazy - leaving the city at age 20 and buying a house in this small town. They said I’d lead a “lonely” life, back in the “middle of nowhere”.

Shortly after moving in I got a cat, named Stevie to keep me company. She quickly became a part of my of Home. She watched me grow into an adult and saw me through many interesting and sometimes difficult times. For 15 years, she was my friend and constant companion… We did all kinds of fun things together.

My little calico companion passed away on the afternoon of October 30, and even though she could be a jerk sometimes, I can’t help but feel so dang sad.

Stevie wasn’t just a cat, she was a marker of time. Losing her comes with a mourning of the passage of years and experiences. It seemed fitting to bury her on Hallows’Eve. Afterward, Mavis and I laid on the ground together and wept.

When you love a cat…
