Autumn Vibes

September 22, 2017 · Leave a Comment

Autumn Vibes | Dreamery EventsThe time for falling leaves and apple cider has finally come upon us and we couldn’t be more excited. Whether you’re a fan of carving pumpkins or creating your own Halloween costume, there’s something about fall that makes it a favorite for most. The key word being “most”, because not me, I just deal with it. I figured earlier in the month that one way I was to deal with this season change was by doing the few things I do enjoy and can do this time of year. I’m definitely not going to overload on pumpkins, in fact I’m leaning more towards less and incorporating more natural elements in my life, like foraged greens, a more strict yet easy going work routine, pairing down my home and adding more lightness to it, and a pretty soft blush and neutral wardrobe color palette. 

Here are some of the things I’m planning on doing this Autumn….

1. Connect

Autumn Vibes | Dreamery EventsThis word has become my mantra for autumn. In order to deal with something we may not enjoy, it’s important to connect with it on some level, so that’s what I’m going to do this autumn and winter. On a personal level, I reached that point of the year where I’m focusing on my goal to strengthen my relationships and connect with others. With everything that has been going on around the world now more than ever we need to be there for others, and be grateful for that which we have. Reaching to make a call to aunt more often, rather than a text, send a thoughtful written note to your grandparents, or take action to volunteer in the many causes you can do to make our world a better place.

2. Visit a Sunflower Field

Autumn Vibes | Dreamery EventsThis may not be the easiest thing to see depending where you live, but I recently discovered a stunning one in New Jersey, and would love to go. The only downfall sunflower season doesn’t last as long as apple or pumpkins, so your window to see all these bright sunshine beauties is short, just like our gorgeous spring cherry blossoms.

3. Apple Picking 

Autumn Vibes | Dreamery Events

This is pretty much a given. Who doesn’t love going apple picking? Even if you don’t you’re almost sure to be treated to freshly baked apple cider donuts and warm cider to go with it. Last year I began using only New Jersey farm grown apples for the Dreamery’s pies, and this year I plan on exploring as many of this state’s northern farms as possible. Because of well…

4. PIE! 

Autumn Vibes | Dreamery EventsThere will be plenty of pie to go around this autumn! It’s my favorite baking season, because I get to continuously bake my favorite desserts. I actually enjoy carving out days to just make dough, or binge a good show cutting apples and making filling.

5. Create & Redecorate

Autumn Vibes | Dreamery Events

Like Spring cleaning, fall cleaning and redecorating is a must. Whether you love the fall, or like me prefer warm months, this is the perfect timing to give the spaces you see everyday a new lightness to them. Whether its a fresh coat of paint on the walls or your furniture, swapping in lighter curtains, turning old sweaters into new pillows, or simply framing photographs. I have a list of DIY’s I’ve been waiting for now to tackle. My bedroom and office are slowly getting redecorated, and it’s been in need of a much needed update.

6. Incorporate Natural Elements Indoors & Create

Autumn Vibes | Dreamery EventsBring the outdoors in with pretty branches still with a few leaves placed in a lovely vase, rustic wreaths and of course pretty hued pumpkins and squashes on your doorstep. You won’t find orange or red in my home, this autumn I’m drawn to light natural colors like soft greens, mustard yellow, and warm creams. Pumpkins will be few, giving way to beautiful branches and flowers that are uniquely perfect this season. I’m finishing up my tablescape moodboard {which I’ll be sharing next week} and you might be surprised to see my inspiration.

7. Photo the Foliage 

Autumn Vibes | Dreamery EventsFor most who say autumn is their favorite, it’s because there isn’t anything quite like the leaves changing. Going out to photograph the sessional foliage basically forces me to deal with the changing of the season head on, and accept the lovely shades of burnt oranges and fiery reds. Being able to capture the changing of Mother Nature, helps me feel grounded during this time of year.

8. Go On More Hikes

Autumn Vibes | Dreamery EventsThe best excuse to get outside and enjoy nature while I still can and the cold drives me indoors for hibernation. It’s also just another reason to capture more colored leaf snaps. You get a different feeling when hiking in autumn, rather than spring or summer. Trees are more bare, losing their green making way for their period of rest too. It can be easier during these next two seasons to want to stay indoors, but getting into the mountains and trees is good for your mind and soul.

9. Savor the Season with Festivals

Autumn Vibes | Dreamery EventsAlong with Spring, September and October is a very popular time to host festivals. Apple picking, hay rides, Wine making, Octoberfest, food festivals, Pumpkin carving, Back to school, Return of fall tv. You’d be surprised how much going around, you’re just a click away from finding a really great thing to do this weekend. I’d love to do a tasting this year, maybe even while pumpkin picking, or attend a local food truck gathering. Go ahead embrace the small town charm!

10. Go to a Football Game

Autumn Vibes | Dreamery Events You definitely know autumn is near when preseason Football returns. Teams may be different, but it’s a time for us all to come together for the same reason — to watch America’s game with a drink in hand of course. Not into the game itself, but love entertaining? Why not have a casual sunday afternoon get together, fit with a simple charcuterie board, plenty of wine and even indoor s’mores!

I’ve never been one to connect with the color pu I’ve never been one to connect with the color purple much, & yes I believe everyone connects to colors in certain ways. And yet, Clematis are some of my favorite flowers🌿

For a brief few Spring days each year, the garden is a vision of purples....deep rich violets that almost look black, their sheen like velvet, delicate lavenders & pretty mauves that flutter in the breeze. Nature is a true delight for the soul🤍

They’re calling for a too hot, too soon kind of weekend, but we’ll be surrounded w. love celebrating a special wedding at a lovely location! Hope this weekend brings you moments of rest & joy, that allow you to look at all that is blooming🌱…
tiny joyous things🌿 ... I try not to lose sight tiny joyous things🌿 ... I try not to lose sight of the fact I get to create & "work" w. beautiful flowers; one of the things I love so much & one of the joyful parts of creating & sharing my work w. others. But this whole social media thing is weird right, the world is weird & broken right now -- as creatives seems like are new age question is "do I post this pretty picture when this is really happening right now?! but it's also kind of my job to put my work out there for others to see, right?!" ... but I’m learning, funny enough, by some inspiring women on this platform, it's ok to feel all these things while also sharing the joyous, cool & helpful things we are all working on, creating & hoping to bring into this world. Life is filled w. beautiful & sad moments, happiness, joy, grief, fear, doubt, love. All the tiny things🤍

& if anyone watched last night's This is Us, how beautiful was their telling of one's final moments, looking back at life. Ugh my heart😢
There’s one word to describe the first full even There’s one word to describe the first full event of the season…ethereal🤍

Event season is in full swing & it’s nice to finally step aside from planning to bring all the ideas, time & details to life!
“We are like {blossoms}; holding on, letting go, “We are like {blossoms}; holding on, letting go, rising & falling into our weathered souls…” - Angie Weiland-Crosby🌼

May is the start of a busy few months of events, so I’m going to make sure I prioritize Rest whenever I can. But also plenty of garden days, living & cherishing simple moments — because when the busy days will feel like a blur or the state of the world (big/small) only adds to the mental drain, I know these will be the things that keep me going🤍
