Herbal and Floral Arrangements to Elevate Your Mood

BROOKLYN, NY - Little Glass Slipper's herbal and floral arrangements boost your mood. Post-Summer sadness is upon us (or at least for those of us who have to deal with a love/hate relationship with seasons).

As we grapple to hold on to what's left of the warm weather and long days, we happily plan for hot tea, bulky sweaters and sadly expect chilly commutes to work and sunsets before we leave the office.

For many of us, the long months of low temperatures have an affect on our psyche. Just like certain colors can boost our mood, so too can scents.
Florist Cary Pereyra of The Little Glass Slipper has created a floral arrangement that includes herbal components to help lift your spirits during the winter.

The components in this arrangement include rosemary which has a woodsy scent that reminds you of the outdoors.

The garden rose and some standard rose varieties have a very beautiful rose scent that will perfume your space and the essential oil of roses is used in aromatherapy as an antidepressant, but because it takes so much work to distill even a small amount of oil from a rose, the oils tend to be quite expensive. Which is why the right rose is a pocket-friendly alternative.

While geranium is more of a summer herb, some geranium is available towards the end of summer and into early winter. Geranium has a fantastic rosy or lemony scent which is a great pick me up to help invigorate the mind and body.

This arrangement and its herbal components are a great way to help inspire you once the thrill of wearing sweaters and boots has faded and the winter blues begin to set in.
