Refreshed and Renewed

Posted on December 26, 2018 by Jenn Kelly

Each year when the New Year rolls around, we begin to take stock of our lives, often looking for ways to improve ourselves in small, simple ways. The floral experts at Gordon Boswell Florist suggest adding flowers to your world to feel refreshed and renewed on a regular basis.

Flowers can boost creativity. Surrounding yourself with your favorite colors (and you do still have a favorite, even if you’re no longer a child) has been proven to improve creative thought and ingenuity. Add flowers to your work space and open your mind to new possibilities.
Flowers lower stress. The color green is a known stress reducer, so placing flowering plants with leafy green foliage near your desk or work space can create a calm, peaceful environment, reducing stress and anxiety noticeably.
Flowers help you breathe easier. Plants and flowers are natural air purifiers, absorbing impurities and toxins in the air and allowing you to breathe cleaner air. This promotes improved focus, attention and mood because you simply feel better when breathing cleaner air!

Put A Fun Spin On Thanksgiving

Posted on November 5, 2018 by gordonboswell

This year, instead of letting the stress of creating the perfect Thanksgiving feast take you away from the true meaning of the holiday, try refreshing your meal with a twist on tradition. Invite guests to join you for an international-themed Thanksgiving meal. Go potluck or feature dishes from your favorite cultures. A Mediterranean buffet or Japanese theme can bring out the creativity in everyone. Or simply invite guests to join you for a dessert-only Thanksgiving (who’s not thankful for dessert?). Dress your table with traditional Thanksgiving linens, china and stemware, featuring a lovely centerpiece from the collection at Gordon Boswell Flowers for a simple way to tie your non-traditional feast to the nostalgia of the holiday.
