Purple Flower Photo: Waterlily at Longwood Gardens in Pennsylvania

Purple Waterlily Photo by Aquariann
It's been a stressful summer. So last Thursday my parents and I decided we needed flower therapy, and took a day trip to Longwood Gardens in Kennett Square, PA.

I was delighted that the waterlilies were in bloom. Don't worry, this purple waterlily wasn't harmed to be in my Manicure Monday photo - it was part of an information station where guests could get a closer look at the flower without falling into the man-made ponds.

I took more than a hundred photos of plants and will be slowly sharing them in future Flower Fridays.

    I like how your nails match the flower. I can't ever keep polish on with dishes and painting. How pretty that flower looks!

The four sided dagger beads are different lengths and embraced by sterling silver wrap with surgical steel earwires. She has already cleared the crystals, but if you ever need to recharge or remove unwanted energy, simply place in a window that is beaming with sunlight. Michelle believes that the Creator gave to all things a purpose, including gemstones. She covers as little of the "face" of the stone as possible, but still secures it safely in its setting.
