Lovely Scent Of Roses And Natural Mountain Air

On Friday we visited a friend who is recuperating at home from a fractured ankle bone when she fell. We had a time of fellowship and lunch with her. Upon reaching home after the visit, my hubby told me that there was a parcel waiting for me on the dining table. I was expecting the parcel to arrive after the weekend but it came earlier.
A parcel with baby pink ribbon, one of my favourite colour. 
  These are the items in the trial pack. Beautiful pink packages.

As I opened the parcel, I could smell a lovely fragrance in the air and the scent came from both the boxes of tissue. One has cherry blossom scent and the other rose essential oil. These lovely floral scent brought back memories of my maiden trip to Cameron Highlands many, many years ago. That was more than 50 years ago!

I can still remember the excitement of my first trip (as a 7 years old) to the highland and the wonderful feeling from the lovely scent of roses from the beautiful rose garden and the cool, fresh natural mountain air in my nostrils. 

Wow! The Power of Scent that reaches deep into my memory bank to bring forth this childhood memory!
Another item in the parcel is the scented candle in a glass.
Hmm...keeping it for a relaxing and romantic evening!  
 Paper scented roses! Ah! I am getting excited with ideas in my head.
 I think it would be great to present scented paper roses to my friends for the Christmas festive season. I enjoy origami and I tried making tissue roses with the scented tissues. The tissues are easy to handle, do not tear easily, yet soft to the touch. The lovely scent gives me a sense of peace and joy while folding the paper roses as a gift of love to my friends.
I just realized tomorrow is my friend's birthday. I am sending this as a self-made birthday card to her. I hope this will brighten up her birthday!
It doesn't cost much, I think most important is the thought that counts.
Anyway, we are all pensioners. 
 How about this for a Christmas present?
The red and white matches beautifully! What do you think?

  1. Your white scented tissue flowers are so pretty. It brings back some childhood memories of my own. We made paper flowers too but the tissue paper wasn't scented.
    Have a great week.
    Hugs,

  5. Haha so strong the memories evoked by the scent! I haven't encountered the cherry blossom yet. I don't quite like the rose one though. It reminds me to much of the super-heavy scent at Lovely Lace.

    1. Thank you, Stacy. I too don't like the artificial rose scent but surprisingly these rose scent and the cherry blossom scent smell very natural and they are not overwhelming. I do like the scent. Have a fabulous day!

  14. Isn't it amazing how a smell an bring you back? Even a color. I saw a red and black plaid hat the other day and for some reason I had to have it. It wasn't expensive so I bought it. When I showed my husband he said, you dad had a hat just like that. I think that's why I had to have it, because then the memory came flooding back. Have a great day!
