I’m Natalie Catalina, a creative designer, storyteller, and curator who relishes making every moment beautiful. I’m endlessly inspired by the ease of fresh neutrals, printed ephemera, antique finds, and small noteworthy moments. Outside my full time job, I’ve been blogging for over 12 years as a creative outlet, garnering a loyal following with an adoration for all the same things that bring me joy. With a keen eye for aesthetics, an affection for writing, and a cultivated fondness for interior and sartorial design, I offer a refreshing escape for those simply seeking inspiring content in a quieter way.

Alongside my love for curation and storytelling, I have since delved into offering freelance design services for fellow creatives and small businesses, helping to bring their stories, visual identities, and projects to life by way of strategy, logo design, print products and more.

I currently reside in my charming 1920s DC apartment with my sassy cockapoo, Millie.
