January 2, 2014: "Abundance" (002/365)
In literature, wheat symbolizes growth and renewal, prosperity and blessings, hearth and home, love and charity, sowing and reaping, creativity and abundance. Coco Chanel made wheat her lucky charm and its presence was a recurring motif in her apartment and her designs. Wheat is a such fitting symbol for the New Year: an acknowledgement of effort and commitment, rewarded with abundant blessings.
