The table above was one of the two featured in my latest contribution to Atlanta Tastemaker Magazine [ATM] entitled, “Tablesettings Redefined.”

The location was Westside District’s Redefined Home Boutique, a store chocked full of found objects, antiques, and furniture made by local craftsmen, it is truly a curator’s paradise. The owner David D’Ambrosio decorated two tables exclusively for ATM in honor of a staged, magical New Year’s Eve celebration.

One table consisted of an theme inspired by rustic elegance, the other had more European influences and was steeped in tradition.

As I chatted with David I couldn’t help but take a few camera phone shots of the tables and his enchanting boutique. Of course you can see Chandra’s professional shots in this month’s issue and also read my article in its entirety [see the ATM digital mag at end of this post].

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
