ShowMe’s Favourite Things | Pink Is My Favourite Colour
Easter brings tons of colour to store shelves the world wide. There is special focus placed on the wrapping and colour of all the products, the colour pink being quite prominent. Each month we pop into local shops in Hermanus and bring to you the most beautiful eats, treats and objects.
The colour pink represents compassion, nurturing and love. It relates to unconditional love and understanding, and the giving and receiving of nurturing.
