My Fall Bedroom Makeover
The last couple of days here in New York have had a decidedly fall-ish tinge to them. I love that crisp feeling in the air, and can’t wait for fall, as it’s my favorite season. And it’s gotten me thinking about doing a little makeover to my bedroom. I’m ready for something a bit heavier and just a new look […]

I know it is weird when people speak so highly of their own work but […]
Julee’s Wedding Countdown: DIY Stamp Wedding Invitations
I really wanted our invitations to set the tone of the wedding (fun and laid back) while also reflecting Rahsaan and I as a couple (again, fun and laid back)! I’ve had a love affair with paper since I can remember, which I’m sure is one of the many reasons I became a writer. Stationary, notebooks, handwritten letters and even […]
Julee’s Wedding Countdown: Our “Novel” Wedding Theme
One of the first questions I got after getting engaged (next to “have you set a date?”) was “do you have a theme?” My first reaction was to keep it simple and go with a beach theme since we would be on Martha’s Vineyard. But I quickly nixed it since we chose MV because my fiance’s family owns a house […]
