Flowers and bouquets of flowers have a meaning of their own. Most of us know that a dozen red roses means, “Be mine.” But did you know, for example, that a primrose means, “I can’t live without you,” or that a purple hyacinth means, “Please forgive me,” or that a pink carnation means, “I’ll never forget you,” or that a gladiolus means, “Give me a break?”
Mirrors are an excellent way to decorate your home, as well as give the appearance of a larger room. Great places to use mirrors in your home are above the fireplace mantle, on a dining room wall, in your entryway, and of course in groupings with other items such as wall sconces, etc.
You can also add to the beauty of your home by using decorative mirrors. Place mirrors strategically, so that they reflect something beautiful and exquisite in your room, such as a gorgeous plant, handsome statue or piece of art. If you have a fireplace, hanging the mirror so that the fire is reflected is absolutely stunning.
