The Color of Romance
The color Pink isn't just pretty to the eyes you know!
According to color psychologists, who study
the mental and emotional effect of color,
studies show that exposure to large amounts of pink
can have an actual calming effect on the nerves.
The color pink represents and inspires compassion and love.
It relates to unconditional love and understanding,
and the giving and receiving of nurturing.
It is the color of physical tranquillity, warmth,
hope, sweetness, sexuality,
romance and feminine and intuitive energy.
A combination of red and white,
pink contains the need for action of red,
helping it to achieve the potential for
success and insight offered by white.
It is the passion and power of red softened
with the purity, openness and completeness of white.
The deeper the pink, the more passion and energy it exhibits.
Winter is almost gone... spring is in the air...
put aside the thought that pink is only for little girls,
embrace your femininity,
let the romance and warmth exude...
Get pretty in pink.

There's always room for cake!
It's seems as though today, more and more couples
are giving the elbow to the wedding cake on their big day,
in exchange for other dessert options...
cupcakes, cake pops, dessert bars,
jars full of assorted candies...
These are all very delightful and scrumptious too,
but how can you have a wedding without real cake!
Without Wedding cake?
Every great celebration deserves a great cake!
Every great celebration deserves a great cake!
Not only are wedding cakes delicious
but they are also works of art that many times
serve a beautiful focal point in the room.
As well... the wedding cake isn't just a tradition
because we are all cake lovers, it has symbolic duties too.
The action of the bride and groom cutting the cake
is meant to symbolize their first joint task in married life.
And the gesture of feeding cake to one another is a symbol of
the commitment the bride and groom are making.
Traditionally the wedding cake was to be white to symbolize purity
but the cake and it's color have taken on a new attitude!
I still love a white wedding cake,
pure, calm, simple and delicate...
just like the type of marriage you would wish to have.
But I'm also in love with the fun, flare and playful elements a colored cake
can add to the
whole effect of the magical night.
Below are some of my most favorite
romantic and fun wedding cakes,
white, pink lavender... which ever color, they are all amazingly romantic and gorgeous
Currently on Repeat...
You've been on my mind,
I grow fonder everyday,
lose myself in time...
Just thinking of your face...

Romance in the Home... The Chandelier
"We eat Light, drink it in through our skins.
With a little more exposure to light,
you feel part of things physically.
Seeing is a very sensuous act...
there's a sweet deliciousness to feeling yourself see something".
For me lighting is extremely important in all areas of my life... especially in the home...
The exquisiteness of a Chandelier not only gives out amazing light and reflection, but also adds a romantic feel to your living space, Instantly.
Chandeliers can be very pricey, some still are, but I've seen many beautiful affordable Chandeliers lately that would make any room in your home that more dashing.
Every home should have at least one!
Chandeliers... Instant Romance!
