Lavender in Tuscany
My romantic trance began while traveling the Italian country side of Tuscany. Breathing in the aromatic aromas of fresh lavender, rosemary, fennel and olive groves, while walking along side the Chianti vineyards on a gravel road was the beginning of my daily routine. With this panorama of breathtaking views, who would want to be inside. A serene peaceful feeling embodies you, and you want to bottle it up and take it home. So, what's the fix?
Perhaps a patio garden with decorative pots filled with fragrant herbs and efflorescent flowers. Make use of them in your floral arrangements, cooking a romantic meal, creating bath sachets, or accenting gift packages. The memoriable colors of the Italian country side, purples, deep greens, lavender, sage and cool, crisp whites will recreate the canvas in your mind.
