My Black Celebration Award’s Win

Hello everyone!  So…I can finally say that I am an “award winning blogger!”  How cool is that?!  Over the weekend I was a part of the 2nd Annual Black Celebration Awards (created by Judith Jacques, center), held at the Alvin Ailey Dance Center in the Blogger Category.  I was in the category with some amazing talent, including fellow blogger friend, Isaiah Kelsey, the Urban Foodie. I feel so honored to have won! Check out the rest of the night, along with my speech below. You know….I now see why people write out acceptance speeches because I forgot everything — from the moment you sit down, until you hear your name, it’s all a blur. A fun blur, but a blur :).  But this could not have been possible without all my faithful readers….the support of my family, friends, and my honey, who all cheer me on and challenge me.  Here’s to you guys!


Here are some of the winners, from left to right: BD Freeman, Comedy; Myself, Blogger; Andre Farnell, Sports & Fitness; Judith Jacques, Black Street CEO; David Toussaint, Business; Tiffany Aliche, Finance; and Tisa Key, TV & Film.

I also got to meet fellow savings blogger, Tiffany Aliche — love her!

My Feature on Alleywire


Happy Friday guys…..man, these weeks fly by faster and faster 🙂 Ok, so you all know I have been feverishly creating more DIY’s this summer…what you may not know is, I was recently honored to have Alleywire — a company who spotlights startups and innovators — reach out to me for an interview.  I was so very excited to be able to showcase my work to a new audience, and am SO very pleased with the outcome — I couldn’t wait to share it with you all (that’s if you haven’t already seen me shouting it from the rooftops on Twitter 🙂  But feel free to watch it, share it, and hop over to their site to comment to show them you’re a fan.  I appreciate everything you all do to support my endeavors — it really helps keep me going. Have a wonderful weekend. xoxo, Brandhyze

Schermerhorn TShirt Necklace DIY Workshop


Happy Wednesday guys!  I have been gearing up to do more DIY Workshops, and I wanted to share one that I did for my recycled tshirt necklace.  The ladies at the Schermerhorn were great to work with and really chose some beautiful tshirts that made necklaces that really popped!  Want to see more workshops or even participate in one? Visit my gallery page and tell me which workshops you’d like to see me do/attend. Enjoy the rest of your week!
