Enhance Celebrations with Flowers


I love flowers! My favorite colors are purple and pink so I would like to receive any flowers in those color spectrums.  Hint, hint, hubby! When using flowers to decorate your celebrations, think of ones that will enhance your theme but that don't have an overwhelming odor.  In my previous job, I had an office that was off the beaten path but whenever someone sprayed cologne, I could smell it in a second.  I've heard that if you can smell your own cologne, you're wearing too much.  I want to smell the person's cologne after they've passed by not before they get to me like "Oh, I can smell Mary's cologne. She must be here somewhere." It's the same with flowers.  The flowers should have a pleasant, subtle odor not one that will knock people over as they walk in the door.  Give some thought to which flowers you'll choose for your event.  If you're planning a party for someone else, ask which flowers that person likes if you don't already know.  Also, consider the theme.  What is the purpose of the celebration?  Do a little research on the internet to come up with appropriate choices.  The picture I have posted is of an azalea bush right outside my home.  They bloom once a year in March.  Aren't they beautiful?
