You all are the best (blogging) friends a girl could have!

Q from Urban Paint gave me the YOU’RE GOING PLACES BABY award and I sure hope she’s right! She is a very talented interior designer in Charlotte, NC who writes an informative and wonderfully illustrated blog! I would kill to have her rendering skills!

Ashlina from Secrets to Domestic Bliss acknowledged me with the Sunshine Award.  Fun-loving, genuine, and a total knockout Ashlina is a blogosphere superstar! She recently asked me to participate in a special project…can’t wait to let you in on the details!

Lisa’s Spotlight over at Destination Seaborn made me realize that I am accomplishing the goals I set for BluLabel Bungalow. I am so grateful for her kind words and her support in furthering my dream.

…and finally I’ll let you in on a little secret. I’ve been moonlighting as a blog designer. In my down time I’ve been decorating a few blogspots and have the satisfied customers to prove it!  Here’s what they had to say…

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
