April showers might bring May flowers, but did you know those flowers could be saying more than you realize?

People have been using flowers to express feelings and send messages for thousands of years. The secret language of flowers, or floriography, was popularized as we know it today during the Victorian era. In a society of strict social customs, flowers became a popular way to say what couldn’t be said and express your own style.

Most of us have given or received a bouquet, and we each have our unique approach to selecting an arrangement. Perhaps your bouquets are refined and classic, much like your everyday wardrobe. Or maybe they’re a riot of color, similar to your eclectic collection of home décor. Each bouquet becomes an opportunity to showcase your style.

Warmth

Envelope guests in a welcoming embrace from the moment they enter your home with a soft fragrance that sets the scene. A chamomile lavender candle fills your space in relaxing tones. Gentle chamomile shares your wish for friends that all their dreams come true while soft lavender casts your sanctuary in a wash of serenity. On the wall, a three-dimensional floral canvas from Dallas artist Christine Tonolini brings to mind the feminine, sweet pea, a flower associated with kindness and greetings to welcome loved ones inside with colorful warmth.

Joy

Surround yourself with joy from your head to your toes. The cheerful silhouette of a daisy, a symbol of new beginnings, dances on delicate gold jewelry as a beautiful gift to celebrate a new mother’s tiny bundle of joy. A bouquet of faux-forever yellow tulips adds color to rooms with less natural light, reminding you to think cheerful thoughts. Or take the flowers outside the vase, with dynamic silicone floral vases blossoming with messages of cheer, beauty, and joy.

Inspiration

When it comes to inspiration, style plays a key role. A well-placed floral addition can offer inspiring messages throughout the day.

In the morning, spritz yourself with the soft fragrance of Child perfume and enjoy whiffs of delicate gardenia, reminding you that ‘you are lovely’ at every hour.

Floral art books can offer multifaceted inspiration. Flip through the pages whenever you need a reminder of your strength. An Iris for your passion and wisdom, peonies for prosperity, and ranunculus to remind you are radiant. Then display your book on a styled shelf or coffee table, so those messages are never far from reach.

Love

Tuck love into every corner of your style with evocative florals offering a message of devotion. The soft folds of a white calla lily encircle a marble trinket dish, symbolizing a rejuvenation of the soul and a reminder of self-love. A rich red rose is the classic symbol of perfect love, and a beautiful orchid arrangement showcases your elegance and passion in exotic form. 

Nature’s beauty and complexity know no bounds when forming each unique flower. From the love and joy of a single tulip to the indulgent and elegantly layered petals of a peony, the secret language of flowers offers you new ways to express how you really feel. Pop into Talulah and Hess today and let us help you express yourself with the perfect gift!
