Lime Tart with a Saltine Cracker Crust

Lime Tart with a Saltine Cracker Crust | | Dreamery Events

Summer days are becoming hotter and hotter, no matter where you are these days. Even this self-proclaimed pie lover finds the desire to not turn on the oven amongst these sweltering days, greater than the desire to bake a pie. It’s why I’ve been baking more easier, and quicker, galettes with puff pastry, stonefruit pandowdy…

Berry Sour Cream Custard Pie with Phyllo Crust || Dreamery Events

Pie is most certainly my favorite thing to make. Often on afternoon making pie dough, getting my fingers into the cold butter and flour, it’s like a beautiful mental trip or therapy session. It soothes the soul. Can I say that’s really the secret to any yummy flaky pie dough. And when it comes to…

Vanilla Bean Panna Cotta || Dreamery Events

When quarantine first began, way back in the middle of March, the one thing I was actually looking forward to was the time to bake and cook freely for myself. Yes, I cook everyday but with my event work and holiday baking, finding the time to cook more elaborate dishes or bake sweets that I…

French Vanilla Coffee Ice Cream || Dreamery Events

If you follow me along on Instagram and saw my story last month, then you saw me using up the last of that darn gallon of milk used in this Salted Caramel Ice Cream and these Milk Tarts “Queijadas de Leite.” I was experimenting and testing my luck with a highly caffeinated ice cream, I…

Oh sweet sweet summertime, you’re sadly coming to your end once again. Although summer isn’t over until the end of September, and even though I continue to ride the summer vibes until the east coast weather officially turns on us, for most Labor Day marks the unofficial end of this season, I love so much….

Mango Curd Ice Cream

July 30, 2018 · Leave a Comment

And just like that, another summer month is coming to its end. July where did you go so quickly? I didn’t get to enjoy and make nearly enough ice cream to commemorate National Ice Cream Month. This food holiday isn’t just a fad either, it’s been around since 1984 when President Ronald Reagan declared July as…

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.
