Happy Tuesday everyone! While performing my morning (blog) rounds, I thoroughly enjoyed reading this post from Q of Urban Paint.  She too is an interior designer and lover of fashion and style. Check out how she uses her awesome collection of jewelry and accessories to illustrate her New Years Resolutions! Here’s one of my favorites…  Love it, Q you rock!

HI,
I'M ERIKA.

Beyond the Blueprint is a curated journal where legacy, lifestyle, and intentional design converge.

Here, I share stories from the heart of my home and the homes I create—faith-filled reflections, family rhythms, wellness practices, and design inspiration rooted in grace and purpose.

From motherhood and marriage to the sidelines of Friday night lights, each entry offers a glimpse into the layered life I live—and the brands, spaces, and values that support it.

Whether you're here to be inspired, encouraged, or aligned, welcome. This is life beyond the blueprint
