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 several wedding and event planning resources, like a bridal shower checklist that came in handy for those involved with planning my cousin’s wedding, and the meanings of each wedding anniversary for all the newly married couples in my life. There were pretty Valentine’s Day florals, beautiful garden tulips and roses, and a DIY Gatsby inspired Bridal Shower that was my favorite!
And there was plenty of how to’s! It was one of my goals this past year to bring new life to old things, I definitely accomplished that and am looking forward to crafting many more projects. My travels didn’t take me to several countries this year, but it brought me back to Portugal, to family I miss dearly and rediscovering culture and traditions. My garden was more bountiful and larger this year with endless delicious vegetables, and the flowers were just so beautiful, with bright colored roses still blooming! There was plenty of inspiration on the blog, and there will be plenty more to come.
How about you, have you taken some time to reflect on all you’ve done this year, and thought about was you’d like to do next year? Here are some of your favorite 2015 posts and a few of my favorite accomplishments..
