Thanks for stopping by to learn more about me!
Hi, I’m Taneshia Blackwell, the one who keeps the Blackwell Family Home running (this site and our actual home). I am the wife to Marcus, Jr. and the mom of 2 precious children – Victoria (4) and Marcus, III (1.5) – who keep me going each day.
Atlanta, GA is our home, which is where I am from and where I graduated from Spelman College (c/o 2011). I have a degree in economics and was captain of the Morehouse College Maroon Tiger Cheerleading team while there.
I took my love of cheerleading to the pros and became an NFL cheerleader for the Oakland Raiders for 1 season (after moving to Cali for my first job out of college), and then the home team Atlanta Falcons for 4 seasons (yes, including the abysmal Super Bowl LI).
My passion for sharing transitional home decor, DIY projects, and family fun led me to start this blog. I am going through the process of furnishing and decorating our 4,000+ square foot home and started a YouTube channel to document and share all the fun alongside this blog. Hopefully, you’ll stick around and find some inspiration in one way or another, and consider subscribing to my YouTube channel where I show in-depth tutorials and walk-throughs of my space and the things I make for it. You can also learn more about me and our family there. Thank you so much for stopping by! ♥
