Hello Friends,  I had a lot of help from many of you in choosing a title for this Premier Collection original.  It was hard to decide with all the terrific suggestions,  which incidentally, I save for possible future titles. 
Thank you Katie Richcreek for naming "Passion". 
The title seemed appropriate for this unfolding peony draped with rich, warm dark reds that sizzle with excitement. 
Though passion fits in many places such as neutral decor needing a pop of color, you have got to see it hanging in this Parisian apartment...Click here to see.

Has passion eluded you?

OK, I am not talking about the romance, love kind of passion, though I will say, when you have something you are excited about, the feeling is very much like falling in love; waking up to a new day with joy and eagerness.   Will you share with us what spurs you on, baking cakes, raising and breeding lizards (I know a young lady who does well with that), and any  ideas that worked for you that some of us can use?  (click the comment button on side or below to share).
I enjoyed this article, 8 ways to find true passion in life, thought you might too. Click here to read
