Okay, fine. I'm kidding about the creepy window peeking!
But, I can't help but be curious about those doors and the lives of the folks who walk in and out of them every day. Do they kick their shoes off into the middle of the entry hall and frantically search the two-day-old clean laundry pile on the couch for pants with an elastic waist and soft fabric, like I do? (My friend calls these "house pants" and I think that's the perfect description for them) Do these people's kids leave the door open when coming in from a long day of school, only to hear their mother's muffled voice (she's under the laundry pile, remember?) say, "Shut the door!" ? Do these families sit in their living rooms together and pray for each other and talk about important philosophical topics like how teachers need to use green stars for good behavior instead of gold stars because green is always more fun?
Home is where we dig deeply for comfort and it's the primary place where we learn how to take care of each other. It's where we sit and be together, even when the conversations don't make sense and everybody's too tired to listen to a prayer from their long-winded sister. It's also where we learn how to be thankful, even when we can't find our house pants and even when we trip over shoes left in the hallway.
So what does all of this have to do with a big, wooden letter painted in bold, Fall colors? Well, I guess our homes and lives are kind of like turkey feathers: They go in all different directions and they fall out sometimes, but they sure do add a lot of beauty!
From now through tomorrow, November 4th, at 5 pm CST, I am offering one of these 24-inch wooden Mod Turkey Feather letters for $50, plus shipping and handling. Email me at: KaSoulStudio@gmail.com to order one.
