Wishful Thinking {guest post ~ Fern & Feather}


When I think of wishes I think of them as fleeting, maybe a little impractical and full of light hearted love.... so please forgive me if my wish seems like all of these things... I wish to one day go back to Chateau Dumas with my best friends, who I have collected through my life and my family that we have created. Last summer, on my own, I went to France on the most magical trip of my life. I met up with 14 ladies who I have never met before and fed every little part of my creative soul. Although, the quiet alone time was a gift in itself, I missed my sweet husband, my precious son and dreamed of my dearest friends to share this with. I don't know why we would all find ourselves there. Maybe for a big birthday, maybe for an anniversary or maybe just because life is too short not to create magical moments. As our family grows and the fabric of our lives gets more and more vast I wish I could one day bottle up all of those sweet souls and show them my favorite place on earth.


If you have been around Reverie for awhile, you already know my adoration for Alexis and her soulful zest for life and those lucky enough to be a part of her beautiful circle of love and light.  She continues to amaze me with her creative skills and her eye for discovering vintage treasures.  Not only is she a very dear friend, but she is also a joy to work and collaborate with too.  And as for her wish....our bags are packed, Alexis, we are ready to visit your magical place ~ just say when!

  3. Alexis' wish is so lovely! I always think about how much I'd love to gather up all my friends in a single place, and if that place were as magical as France -- well, that would just be the cherry on top of a perfect sundae.

  8. This wish sounds lovely! I totally agree; when you're in a beautiful place, such as France, it's too good to spend without loved ones along side you.

  9. I traveled on my own to another country last summer (Vancouver, Canada) and it was realyl liberating. I was scared to do it but had a great time learning how brave I actually am :)

  11. Now that most of my work is coming form warmer environments I'm obsessed with outdoor living "rooms." I'm inspired and can smell the lavender.
