Why, as women, do we just die when someone sends us flowers? I love the line in You’ve Got Mail where Meg Ryan’s character says, “Don’t you think that daisy’s are the friendliest flower?” I think they evoke joy in me. When I look through my design magazines (see Guilty Pleasure…Anyone?) I take note of the way the rooms are staged. Have you noticed that in the kitchen they always set the table with beautiful china and what else…fresh flowers. I remember watching MTV Cribs years ago and they showed Pamela Anderson’s shabby chic beach house. She mentioned that fresh flowers are delivered every week. While that may be a little excessive for most of us, I think a great floral display in your main room and maybe one in your bedroom is just enough to keep you smiling all day.
