Pearls And Flowers



















There is something about pearls and flowers!

Pearls are a symbol of purity, honesty, integrity, innocence and faith to me, qualities that I value and try to emulate.

Flowers exude a symphony of scents and perfumes. I love closing my eyes and breathing in the rich aromas that they so freely give. I am also soothed by their beautiful lines, pure forms and deep colors!





























Pearls and flowers....what joy they bring to our lives!

  8. A fantastic duo darling. I love both pearls and flowers, especially roses. Both were my mum's favourite as well. My mum use to say, pearls must be worn. They need light and air, they must be allowed to breath or else they will crack and crumble. Enjoy your week darling and thanks so much for visiting me and for the sweet comments you leave behind.

    Love & Hugs

  13. Hi Ingrid,

    Somehow I must have missed this post last week, but I am glad I found it in the end. Like you I love flowers and pearls too. Although nowadays I don't wear pearl chains that often anymore. I do wear pearl earrings and bracelets regularly though! Love the way you described your feeling about them!

    Enjoy your day!

    Lieve groet, Madelief
