BuyChimes will be closed next week. We're a small family business and we greatly cherish time spent with family and friends. Whether or not summer vacation means a trip or days spent at home, everyone deserves time away from the hustle and bustle of daily life. Which is why we simply close for a week every summer. Truly, our customers know exactly what we mean!

George Washington was spot-on perfect when he said, "I'd rather be on my farm than be emperor of the world."

It's during these "farm" moments that we're better able to serve as "emperor." For those who read this blog regularly (and of course, we do hope there are many of you!), you certainly know of my deep admiration for George Washington. In many, many ways, his life inspires and prompts me to greater thought and higher action.

Practically speaking - this simply means that all orders placed after Wednesday, August 15 will ship on Monday, August 27. We'll be back soon!
