Flower power and colour effects: How colours influence our moods

Let's be honest: Is there a more beautiful time of the year than when everything starts to bloom and the trees turn fresh green? When the plant world throws off its grey veil and turns into an explosion of colour? The colors of fresh flowers and plants are balm for the soul and with a little basic knowledge of color effects you can even take advantage of this effect.

Colour effect: small guide

1.) Yellow stands for happiness and friendship: The radiance of lemon yellow is not only infectious due to its natural intensity, but also vitalizes the senses with its freshness.


2.) Pink stands for balance and protection: Almond blossoms and roses are particularly delicate and versatile in cosmetic products. The colour has a calming aura and stands for a feeling of safety and security.


3.) Opinions are divided on the meaning of the colour purple: for some it is exciting and electrifying, for others it is pure and harmonious. The beauty and beguiling scent of fresh lilac, on the other hand, is undisputed and creates feelings of happiness. In the case of lavender, opinions differ even more. The scent of lavender has a harmonizing effect, but it meets with enthusiasm and aversion in equal measure.

4.) Do you want to make a new start? Then orange is the right colour, because it stands for curiosity and creativity. A bouquet of fresh marigolds or wild tulips on the desk is a wonderful source of inspiration.

Wildflower bed or flowers to order

Fancy getting started and getting creative? If you have a green thumb, you can of course create your own wildflower bed; you can buy ready-made seed mixtures for this. But you can also do it without your own garden or balcony, either with self-picked flowers from the edge of the field (leaving protected plants, of course) or you can order a set from the florist on the corner or online to tie yourself conveniently at home.

DIY bouquet

Want to put together your own floral arrangement? We'll show you how to create your own floral masterpiece and enjoy it for years to come:


1.) Depending on the size of the bouquet, you will need a selection of fresh cut flowers, whose blossoms are preferably still closed, and greenery. Fresh grasses or ornamental leaves are especially beautiful.


2.) Remove the lower leaves and thorns from the stems of the flowers using a sharp knife or rose shears.


3.) To create a harmonious overall picture, you should alternately pin the flowers and the leafy greenery together in a spiral. When you are satisfied with the result, tie the finished bouquet with floral tape or wire.


4.) Depending on the size of the bouquet and the container in which it is placed, you can cut the stems again at a sharp angle, and you can also increase the durability by regularly renewing the water in which the bouquet is placed.

Dried flowers: preserve the colors of nature

If you don't want to see the bouquet you made yourself or the flowers you brought back from a walk fade, you can give yourself a treat and simply dry them yourself.

To preserve as much colour as possible, start preserving while the flowers are still in full bloom. Although most flowers and grasses are suitable for drying, roses or straw flowers are ideal for starters. You can either hang these upside down to dry (preferably in the basement or attic), or place the blooms covered in drying salt in a sealable container for a week. Wild flowers pressed in a book are also particularly beautiful as a small decorative element.
