Color Me Peony

I was so excited this morning when I went grocery shopping to find these BEAUTIFUL peonies! I’m pretty sure that peonies are to flowers what diamonds are to jewelry for most women. Hence the reason every bride wants them in their wedding bouquet. The only problem is that they are more spring time to early summer type of bloomers.
Did you know that according to mythology and folklore peony flowers are a sign of good fortune, wealth, honor and happy marriages. Even more reason to have them in your bridal bouquet. Hmmm…maybe that’s where I went wrong?
So, here’s what I love, love, love about fleurs. I love saying fleurs (French for flowers), it just rolls off the tongue ever so gently. I love how beautiful fleurs make me feel. Many people forget the importance of environmental beauty. Environmental beauty is an actual revenue based genre within the beauty industry which includes candles, home fragrance, potpourri, etc. I don’t know that flowers necessarily fall into the business classification for the industry, but they certainly fall into my classification of beauty.
If you read my blog from last week titled, “What Color Will You Paint Your Hallway”…this is what I’m adding to my hallway this week. What will you add to your hallway or home to make you feel more beautiful this week?
Thanks for checking in!
Until next time…stay BEAUTIFUL!
