I was raised in a tongues-speaking, foot-stomping, choir-sanging, tambourine-playing Black church, where my grandparents — on both sides of my family — were pastors. I loved being a church girl… But my real wedding in 2021 was nothing like what I’d pictured.” (Elle)

Says JAK on https://cupofjo.com/2022/08/30/living-room-fakeover/” rel=”noopener” target=”_blank”>a living room fakeover: “A deceptively simple ‘fakeover’ is switching out kitchen tablecloths. Right now, I have a cheerful ’70s flower print; this fall, I’ll switch to a subtle stripe. One thing I’ve learned is, don’t save your tablecloths for special occasions — use them all the time. They are not meant to be stuck in a linen closet!”
Says Alison on https://cupofjo.com/2022/08/30/living-room-fakeover/” rel=”noopener” target=”_blank”>a living room fakeover: “My grandmother rotated the framed pictures she had of her grandchildren according to the season. Snow pictures for winter, Easter pictures for spring, beach pictures for summer, and school pictures for fall. I always thought that was so fun as a child.”
