This year I wanted to share with you on how I choose my designs for special occasions. I love the colour, softness, warmth and beauty of Claude Monet's paintings. I have selected two water lily studies and fashioned vase arrangements that reflect his paintings for this Mother's Day. Flowers for your mother are and always will be the perfect Mother's Day gift. Join me in wishing every mother in our lives a beautiful, family filled love day.

Why you should give flowers….

Because people love receiving them! I have never delivered flowers to someone and not received that look of ‘Who Me?’ and a great big smile. Some people out there think that flowers are not worth it because they die, they don’t do anything, they are expensive or they are over rated. But the truth is that women especially love receiving flowers. Most women can tell you the last time they received flowers. They are great for our figures – so low calorie! We don’t have to make a commitment to look after them for a long time, they go with anyone’s décor and they make you feel good when you have them around.

But it’s also says a lot about you when you send flowers. You are making a significant investment in your own happiness…giving is one of the top things people do that gives overall happiness and satisfaction in their lives.

"Rutgers University researcher Jeannette Haviland-Jones, Ph.D., director of the university’s Human Emotions Lab, explored what the gifts we choose say about who we are and whether they affect how we are perceived. The research reveals in comparison to other gift, that those who send flowers are viewed as successful, caring and emotionally intelligent people.".....

So get out there and send flowers….Hey send flowers to yourself!
