2015 has been some kind of wonderful year. It’s these calm days after Christmas, before the new year, that I reflect on  the goals I set for myself back in January and my accomplishments; the ones I achieved, the ones I’m still working on, and the ones I plan to actually take on. This year was filled with…

2015 was one creative year! Along with lots of dessert orders, The Dreamery has started to grow bigger on the event styling and planning side, and I couldn’t be more happy about the parties I styled this year, and excited for all the projects coming up next year! This past year I created and shared…
Spring Goals
Inspired by Ruche’s #livebeautifully instagram, my Spring Goals all represent ones to live a happier and more beautiful life this season. Goals that have me doing things that make me smile, but also involve doing and sharing experiences with others too. Like I do every year, instead of grouping my goals into monthly lists, I like to create broader goals…
Monthly Goals: February
Seriously this year is flying by, January over already? I’m feeling quite happy how the first month of the year played out, but February is starting to prove itself for opportunities and surprises. Since I decided to tackle my goals by month, It’s given me more motivation to accomplish them and time to focus on…
My 2015
It’s December 31st, the end of one year and the beginning of another. 12 months, 52 weeks, 365 days have gone by and I always take these last days of the year to reflect. Most may be setting new year’s resolutions that only last about a month, but I on the other hand set goals that…
January Highlights
While I feel ever so grateful in various parts of my life, and feel lucky to have so many wonderful things to celebrate each day, occasionally I get a feeling of emptiness, that something is missing within me. For the longest time, and still, I believe that something within me is missing, or should I say…
Favorites from 2014
2014 brought upon many lovely things and creative posts, collaborations with great companies, and connected me with some amazing bloggers, and I couldn’t look more forward to what 2015 will bring The Dreamery. I really pushed my creative boundaries this year, creating table-scapes and simple how to’s to make our daily lives a bit more lovelier,…
Traveling to ….. a picturesque sunset drive through the glow of Serra da Estrela
I love being from the Serra da Estrela. It’s where I consider more home than home really is currently, or shall I say physically in New Jersey. It’s what I envision my ideal living situation to be. Our tiny village is my happy place, my haven. The place where I can be the best me,…
Homemade Pumpkin Spice Blend
Fall is definitely here for good, and I’m only saying it because I gave in and actually decorated with some pumpkins. Naturally they’re all the prettiest mini white ones or lovely gray hues, but they’re still pumpkins, and the extent of what I’ll decorate for fall. I’ve been slow to get into the Autumn mood,…
Monthly Reflections | February
February quickly came and went, if you blinked too slowly you may have missed it. February is the shortest month and it naturally feels like it goes by quickly, but it actually felt quite balanced for me. I was busy with several dessert orders and a big beautiful 1st birthday at the end of the month, yet I…
