This weekend, my plans for relaxation include reading Lonny Magazine’s June/July issue  available online (free).

My original intent was to save it for Saturday afternoon, but couldn’t resist taking a peek. Here are two of my favorite features:


LEE KLEINHELTER (MODEL DESIGN)

 …and…

BUNNY WILLIAMS (ISLAND RETREAT)

 *I’ll admit it… I’m a city girl who could use a little of the country life right now*

Have you been flipping through the pages of this month’s Lonny Mag? They deem this one to be the best issue yet. What do you think?

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
