Petal by Petal: Freesia

I have loved freesia since my first discovery in grade school; however, it didn't come in flower form, but rather a fragrance.  Freesia is one of those fragrant flowers that with one inhale can bring forth memories, whether it is from a perfume or a lush flowering garden.  I adore it's floral and almost citrus presence that has whispers of green notes.  This bloom hold well in a bouquet, so it is great for weddings.  I like the fact that it has a blooming schedule if you will, where the first flower blooms and then the other buds bloom in a row shortly there after.  Freesia comes in a variety of hues like vibrant yellow, as seen here to shades of pink and purple.

Inspiring Interiors: A Greek Island Abode

I hope that everyone had a great weekend! Spring is still trying to make her official appearance here in New York but to help her out, we decided to do some thorough spring cleaning over the weekend. Rugs were up, and mops soaked in peppermint oil and water were out - it felt good to really give our apartment a scrub-down.  Next up is organization, something I am not very good with (sigh) but after seeing this interior off the coast of Thira or Santorini in Greece I am officially motivated, this abode is serene to say the least and has a world-class view.  I have mentioned this before, but what I learned in Greece last year was the power of bright white, it is just so therapeutic.  I hope you enjoy this home as much as I did.  I hope you have a great week!
