Friday Favorites

November 16, 2012 · 3 Comments

This week was the first time it hit me that the holiday season is in full swing, and I miss the spirit of the East Coast. I finally got my dresser and mattress, so I spent my free time watching CrazyStupidLove, countless times, sorting and organizing my Pinterest. You can say I went a little overboard, but I was getting inspired with holiday decor ideas, finishings for my dresser, and of course new recipes to try out. I have a few in mind for Thanksgiving lunch I’ll be celebrating with this Sunday with the girls. I also found myself at a networking event for women who own their own businesses, and had my eyes opened to the importance of supporting local vendors. In my efforts to live more sustainable, I’ve gathered a list of local Tucson vendors I will need to stop by. We already love, and frequently visit, Cafe Poca Cosa and Hotel Congress’s The Cup Cafe. Get ready for some culinary adventures ahead, our list of things to do in Tucson is growing. And on a side note, Saturday is World Prematurity Day, check out March of Dimes to find out details how you can help!

Happy Weekend!

    I find that when family comes, I am much more in the holiday spirit. My daughter and granddaughter will arrive from Maryland on Monday, and we’ll have houseful of others in and out for a week. Tiring…..but oh so wonderful.

Not one to be led by trends, but seems there’s a Not one to be led by trends, but seems there’s a little something we’re all looking forward to … Color! But there in lies the complex beauty of color. We connect & interpret it in so many personal ways — some of us are drawn to the beauty in the soft muted tones, while others it’s the bright rich hues. Each view & approach, a special way of embracing color✨🌿🌈And I am here for all it!

“Ikebana; the Japanese art of flower arranging t “Ikebana; the Japanese art of flower arranging that emphasizes form & balance — symbolizing the beauty & essence of all components in Nature working in harmony. Ikebana expresses strong emotions through its four principles of a fresh approach, movement, balance & harmony, while highlighting its three elements; line, color & mass. 

Ikebana designs use fewer stems that are intentionally arranged to reflect the balance of opposing elements. Ikebana floral art is a reflection of the person creating it & its evolving story.”

This year I’m challenging myself each month to create a design. Whether it be a centerpiece or tablescape, I want to expand & challenge my creativity, skills & ever-flowing ideas. It’s a perfect way for me to create for the sake of creating while inspiring you with joyful pieces & help others see unlikely designs with a new perspective. 

I was naturally drawn to the traditional artform of Ikebana, for it takes the simplest elements & transforms them into designs that evoke an immense emotion. For me there is so much power & beauty in that, but also why I think it’s not as understood or appreciated as elaborate floral designs. 

I stumbled upon this forgotten small blue & white dish, thought how perfect it would be to capture the story of “Winter Blues” — not the sadness of the bitter season, but the emotion of a fresh clean slate where Nature is bare, minimal & calm, yet open to all the possibilities of the unknown … using a few sprigs of Blue Thistle & the inspiration of Ikebana intentions, this tiny delight was made💙

Dreamery is a bespoke event and floral design brand focusing on gatherings of all sizes, stylings, home, decor and the limitless creative projects yet to be envisioned. Nature, travel, old world treasures & slow living are my constant inspiration.
