OLD LYME–The First Congregational Church of Old Lyme will become a one-stop holiday shop on Nov. 15 and 16 as it opens its doors to those looking to decorate for the holidays or on the hunt for that special gift. Opening hours on Saturday are 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. and on Sunday, 9 a.m. to 1 p.m.
All the holiday items collected during intake days for the White Elephant Sale in July will be featured at the Benevolent Society’s ‘Elephants In Winter’ Sale, including Christmas decorations, Christmas stockings, artificial greens and wreaths, holiday china and glassware, linens, sweaters, toys, books, CDs, DVDs, paper goods, lights, candles, and ornaments.
Meanwhile, the church’s Partnership Committees will host their own sale with unique craft items including Haitian art, olive oil and soaps, Lakota handicrafts, and one-of-a kind handmade scarves, mittens, hats, baby quilts, aprons, potholders, and holiday napkins from “The Ladies Who Stitch.”
