Bringing the outdoors in...

 I found this picture inspiring.....
Honestly I don't remember
where I got this, but the idea 
was so clever that I wanted 
to share it.
  Living moss under glass.
Really wonderful and clever
way of using natural elements
in confined spaces.

  I am a firm believer in energy. Surrounding your environment 
with living things creates a space that is an encouraging, 
positive and healthy way to share in the bounty of healing.
Bringing plants and moss indoors gives the illusion of times out doors.Candles and aromatherapy are also great ways to take a 
break. I think we are all so busy, that we sometimes forget to
take a moment and enjoy the peace that living plants and
scented foliage can give us.

  We decided to try and create designs for this holiday that were not only budget orientated. But more personal ...Including the meanings of flowers and printing them so that they could be read.
  It was really big in the Victorian and Edwardian times and we loved the idea...  Lets face it Roses can be really cost prohibitive and because the growers push for more production, the quality can some times be questionable no matter who you buy from. It is a question of supply and demand. Here were a few of our customers favorites...







Did you know Phalenopsis orchids symbolize beauty, strength and love. or that colors have meaning, Orange for passion and desire, yellow for caring and friendship, Hydrangea flowers for devotion. There seems to be a color and flower for every mood and feeling. it is fun to figure it all out.
