I hope that many of you will remember me as owner and designer of The Rose Garden, an out-of-the-ordinary shop in Covington, Tennessee. My shop was partially a bit different because of it being located in the old family barn that was off the beaten path and also because of the imagination and magic that was an integral part of us. Truly magic. Ask anyone. I really believe that fairies flitted through on a daily basis and sprinkled fairy dust over any and everything and everyone for that matter. The Rose Garden was a place of serenity, a place that you could come in and breathe; a place you could just Be. It was my passion, not a moment went by that I wasn't there physically or mentally and I loved it heart and soul. I still love it. It's different yet the same. We don't have our annual Christmas Open House that drew thousands of people over the years but magic doesn't go away. And neither do fairies when they have a good home.
