Spring Forward
It's been a long winter, but we've just about made it through. The first official day of spring is less than two weeks away and this Sunday morning at 2:00 clocks are turned forward one hour. Getting into the spring spirit, we have decked the shop with our favorite spring flower. Every time I arrange a bunch of tulips I think about a time a million years ago when I was with !ndigo. The Eglinton store had recently opened, and I was having a conversation about an event with a good friend who was the head of Visual Merchandising. She said she envisioned "tulips just being tulips". I still love that comment today because there really is nothing quite like "tulips just being tulips"!
