Raw + Vegan Neapolitan Cake Bars

Today were kicking off the week and holiday season with a healthy dessert. A raw and vegan one at that. I was asked to create a raw and vegan cake for a birthday last week, and it’s been something I’ve always wanted to try, both making and eating. I’ve eaten raw bars and semi-raw desserts, but…

Pumpkin Spelt Waffles

It’s taken me over a year to get it right, but I think I’ve finally nailed this recipe for pumpkin spelt waffles. Thanks to this recipe from Chocolate and Carrots for inspiring me to play around with the amounts in the original recipe. I mean she had me at an entire can of pumpkin! I knew it…

Pumpkin Cheesecake with Gingerbread Cookie Crust

I finally hit my seasonal pumpkin kick. Who isn’t right? Pumpkin recipes are everywhere, some may want a break from it, but this is the season to really enjoy the freshest pumpkin flavors, and I’m definitely enjoying them right now. Lately I’ve been in a cheesecake baking mood, maybe it’s because I haven’t made in quite some time,…

Apple Picking Decor Inspiration

Fall is a fun time of year, even if the weather has us wrapped in scarves and boots. It’s packed with traditions, activities and a beautiful change in nature. My favorite are the colorful trees in the most beautiful oranges, reds and yellows! Ever since my first visit to an apple orchard and pumpkin farm, I’ve…

Bourbon Ice Cream w. Maple Roasted Apples

Bourbon Ice Cream w. Maple Roasted Apples

Every Fall I make a signature seasonal ice cream flavor. Last year it involved Caramel Apples and Cheesecake, and the year before that, Chocolate Pumpkin Chai. The weather was just perfect here in New Jersey last week, perfect for apple picking! And it’s exactly what J and I did Saturday afternoon, so of course apples were again the inspiration…

Tiramisu Cake

J’s dad has been on my case to make him these tiramisu cupcakes, ones he absolutely fell in love with a few years back at a Superbowl party. Trust me I’ve been wanting to make them too, and give everyone in J’s family the satisfaction of eating these delightful Italian inspired cupcakes, but like the traditional recipe,…

How To: Sweater + Tassel Pillow

How To: Sweater + Tassel Pillow

I had the best of intentions to recreate another old sweater I had, using this how-to with this sequined “brave” lettered diy, but I didn’t like how my font turned out. Instead, I improvised with a pile of pillows laying in the attic that needed some updating. Cable knit and wool aren’t just for wearing, I love a cable…

Southern Hummingbird Cake + Cream Cheese Frosting

This is another of those few favorite cakes of mine. There’s this honey lemon sage one I love the most, and its fig rendition, then there’s a southern classic, hummingbird cake. I’ve been making it for a few years now and every time, it’s a crowd pleaser. When I introduced this cake back into my regular…

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.
