Timeless Florals: How to Incorporate Floral Design in Your Home
Flowers are a big part of any culture. Every country has a national flower. Every state in the United States has a state flower. Flowers are God’s art to tantalize our eyes and noses and make romance exciting. From Ancient Egypt through today, we appreciate their beauty, colors, wonderful fragrances, and uniqueness.
“Rooted in ancient art and still prevalent today, depictions of blossoms, blooms and other botanical elements can be found in many of the most significant art movements, whether carved into clay or starring in a still-life.” Says Kelly Richman-Abdou, the writer for mymodernmet.com.
