Barbie has been on or near the top of the most popular toy lists for a very long time. Children are inspired by her pretty face and the versatility of her character-Barbie can be anything! A doctor, a model, a mother, a teacher, a veterinarian, or a mermaid. It's no wonder that with her beauty and versatility, she's even been a flower; four of them, to be exact. In 2001 and 2002 a collector's series of Barbie dolls was inspired by the beauty of flowers. In the series, Barbie was dressed in gowns resembling the blooms of some of the world's favorite flowers. The four dolls in the set included, The Rose Barbie, The Orchid Barbie, The Calla Lily Barbie, and The Iris Barbie. Flowers have not only inspired the artists who design Barbie, they've inspired numerous artists in all mediums throughout the ages. Poets have expounded on their beauty and painters have created incredible works of art featuring flowers. In fact, some of the most famous paintings in the world are of flowers. For example, Van Gogh's Sunflowers painting and the numerous paintings by Georgia O'Keefe, which typically show only a close up view of a flower blossom. Flowers don't just inspire artists, they have a similar effect on all who come in contact with them. In fact, a study has proven that flowers have a powerful effect on people in an office setting. The study took place at A&M University and showed that flowers are capable of increasing the output and creativity of employees who are exposed to them. The study was performed in three environments: a workplace with flowers and plants, one with sculptures, and one with no decorations. At the conclusion of the study, data showed that both male and female participants were more innovative, increased the number of ideas they had, and came up with more inventive solutions to problems. In fact, among men alone, ideas increased by 15%. Another study showed that the appeal of flowers doesn't wane even as we age. A study conducted by Rutgers University, the State University of New Jersey, indicated that flowers can help senior citizens reduce depression, improve memory, and help them connect with other people. Inspire someone today-call your florist to order flowers. Your gift of flowers can make your loved one's day a little brighter and, who knows, you might even inspire the next great work of art! --------------------------------------------------------------------- Wesley Berry is the President of Wesley Berry Flowers, a successful multi-million dollar business that was established in 1946.
