Finding beauty in the daily rhythm of life.
If you’ve been following along in my newsletters or catching glimpses of my work on Instagram, you’ve probably noticed a little pattern (and not just the surface design kind): joy.
Bright colors. Whimsical florals. A lemon tree that sparked an entire collection. Sweet sayings and painterly blooms. These aren’t just aesthetic choices—they’re love notes to the everyday magic that surrounds us.
At Julie M Studios, joy is more than a feeling—it’s a mission.
It’s why I create.

Designing for the moments that matter.
I believe our days are made up of small, sacred seconds. A cup of coffee sipped in sunshine. A note from a friend. A child’s giggle echoing through a messy room. These are the moments that anchor us, that fill us up, even when life feels heavy or rushed.
So when I sit down to design—whether it’s a pattern for a tablecloth or artwork for a greeting card—I’m not just thinking about color palettes and trend forecasts. I’m thinking about how someone might use this piece to celebrate a birthday, brighten their kitchen, or simply smile when they pass by it on the wall.
I want my work to feel like a hug.
A little spark of delight.
A reminder to look up and feel it all.

A creative philosophy rooted in joy
My journey as a designer hasn’t always been linear. I’ve worked in interiors, freelanced for years, balanced client work with raising my beautiful family. Through every chapter, one thing stayed constant: I wanted to create work that uplifts.
Joy doesn’t mean perfection. It means choosing to see color where others see gray. It’s finding meaning in lemons growing outside your window (hello, Lemon Squeeze collection 🍋) or sketching flowers while waiting at track or cheer practice.
It’s trusting that beauty lives in the in-between spaces—
and that art can help us notice.


What I hope you feel
When you bring my art into your life, I hope you feel seen. I hope it adds warmth to your space, a little pop of color, or simply makes you smile. I hope it reminds you that ordinary is beautiful. That you are enough. And that every day holds a little magic, if we pause long enough to catch it.
Because the truth is—
we don’t need a big reason to celebrate.
Everyday joy is reason enough.
