Giving someone a bouquet is always a good idea, whether it’s for a birthday, a special occasion, or just because. But what is it about flowers that bring a smile to someone’s face? Read on for four reasons why we feel happy when we see flowers!

Why do we feel happy when we see flowers?

Colourful

Colour has a positive effect on your mood. The brighter the bouquet, the happier you become! Opt for vibrant colours for more energy in the house or soft hues to create a calming environment. Blue flowers, on the other hand, can boost your creativity – perfect for your home office!

The scent of flowers

Scents can work magic! A pleasantly scented flower can bring you into the present moment or evoke beautiful memories. Think of lavender, reminding you of a holiday in France. Or thyme, transporting you to Italy. Each flower has its scent!

Flowers speak louder than words

Sometimes in life, words fall short. Yet a bouquet can still bring a smile to someone’s face. Because flowers speak louder than words. A floral gesture says it all!

A moment for yourself

Buying flowers at the local flower store is a joy in itself, but arranging them beautifully at home is just as enjoyable. Selecting a lovely vase, trimming the stems, arranging the flowers one by one, and then finding a perfect spot in the house. A delightful moment of happiness!

You’ll find yourself delighted each time.
