Traveling to … the Enchanting + Inspiring Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum in Boston

Traveling to ... the Enchanting + Inspiring Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum in Boston || Dreamery Travels

Be forewarned, this special place has since become one of my favorite travels for its sheer amount of inspiration, gorgeous indoor garden, art and architecture — but really its enchanting and mysterious unsolved case of stolen paintings that draws in all the intrigue! I always love learning about any new place I travel, and before…

Traveling to ... afternoons in the Serra da Estrela :: Avô || Dreamery Travels

It was a toasty mid-July afternoon, post lunch and my cousin and I were looking for something to do — something cool, something preferably by the water, and wasn’t just lounging, somewhere somewhat nearby and had a shady place for us to grab a seat and refreshing drink. It was such a hot day already…

Traveling to ... Revisiting Old Favorites :: Moliceiro Boat Rides + Scenic Lighthouse Views || Aveiro Part II || Dreamery Travels

Last time I spent a day’s adventure in Aveiro, I was with my cousin … riding the moliceiro boats along the famed canals, once used for transporting salt, walking and gazing at the varying architecture including the city’s known nouveau style, to ending it all with a sunset dinner of local seafood and fish delights…

Traveling to ... Palácio Anadia :: Mangualde, Portugal || Dreamery Travels

We have made it through the first full week of 2022. How did it go? How are you feeling? I think so many of us were simply looking forward to easing into the new year, taking advantage of long holiday weekends to extend much needed time to rest and refresh before another year. A new…

Traveling to ... Autumn in Lisboa & an intimate Fado evening in Amália Rodrigues' Garden || Dreamery Travels

You may know the beautiful quote “into the forest I go, to lose my mind and find my soul” by John Muir, it’s one of my favorites. For me, it also applies to whenever exploring a new city — especially one rich in history, and particularly Lisboa. It’s certainly near and dear to my heart,…

Traveling to … the historical brick row houses & cobblestone streets of Beacon Hill

Traveling to ... Beacon Hill

Something about Beacon Hill’s historical brownstones, black shutters and old iron streetlamp lined cobblestone streets, still dressed in varying shades of lingering summer greens and colors now metamorphosing into warmer tones — that simply evokes Autumn. Don’t you think? It may have been the last day of August, but it certainly felt September had emerged from…

Traveling to .. Revisiting Old Favorites :: Belém + Baixa de Lisboa || Dreamery Travels

For the last few years every time I am in Lisboa, I naturally spend some time with my loving aunt and uncle in Charneca the Caprica, a quaint neighborhood of the Costa da Caparica beach coast. And whenever possible I always like to take advantage of location to see and do something new within Lisboa….

August 19, 2021 · Leave a Comment

What is there to say about a minha linda Serra da Estrela. Spending my summers here, growing up, as a young girl submersed in nature, food and family, it intertwined itself into very much who I am. My soul and heart and certainly complete, bliss, when I’m here. How can one not be? Surrounded my…

Traveling to ... the Castelo de Penedono & Senhora das Necessidades de Sernancelhe || Dreamery Events

  What can I say, my heart loves scenic countryside views and terracotta roof tiled homes… As travel begins to pick up, rather quickly and ferociously from the looks of it {I mean I can’t blame anyone for wanting to just hit the road and adventure — as long as it’s being done safely}, there…

Traveling to ... a Sail along the Douro River & Porto's Ribeira || Dreamery Events

There are many things I got from my father that very much make up who I am … the love of nature, gardening and farming, the love of travel, the love of all types of music, especially, jazz, fado, instrumental and anything globally influenced … and the love of the sea. Growing up, any hint…

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.
