A seasonal motif
Zoom on the snowflake
When we think of a winter motif, we naturally
think of the flake pattern. If we love it, it is
because it can be adapted to our desires, even

fragrance!... Display them as a table

with friends and the next day, outside

-3°C but die over 20°C !... Stunning
cyclamens!
