Blue Monday

Today, Monday 20th January, is also known as 'Blue Monday' and is said to be the most depressing day of the year; the Christmas glow has faded away, New Year’s resolutions have been broken and the cold Winter weather has set in.

Blue is often associated with feeling gloomy, but we disagree and love the colour blue! This love is reflected in our Shropshire Petals logo and our SP t-shirts!

Colour has the ability to affect our physical, mental and emotional states. 

The colour blue is rare, calming, cooling and even caring!

There are lots of wedding traditions that feature the colour blue: 

The colour blue is worn by brides to safeguard their luck. 

Married in blue- you will always be true

Something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue. The 'something blue' denotes fidelity and love.

Even our January mix of the month  is a blue mix combining 'Icing sugar' cream delphinium petals, 'Envy' green hydrangea petals, 'Frosted Blue' delphinium petals and 'Bluebird' cornflower petals
