Hello, friend,

RIGN4253I originally started this blog as Southern Belle Grace in April of 2016 with the plans to just use this as a platform to share the things that I felt the blogging community seemed to be lacking. To me, there should be – to some degree – no topics off limits. I refrain completely from sharing my political views here because I feel that we all see things from different perspectives.

In April 2021, the official rebranding took place for the blog. I decided I needed to change things up and make it a little more cozy. Not just for myself, but for those that have found their home here on the blog. Thus, Magnolias & Crystals was born.

I created these spaces to also give me something to focus on that was just for me. I’m completely grateful for all of you who have chosen to follow my blog! But in the beginning, I had no intentions of aiming to get more followers here or to even create a Twitter, Instagram, or Facebook page for this. Not only do we have a Twitter, Instagram, & Facebook page for the blog, but now there’s even a TikTok where you can follow me and see exclusive content just for that platform in the way of my morning ritual teas, ritual baths, and many other things. There is also my Twitch channel where you can hang out with me while I play games or cook with me in the kitchen!

The biggest thing that I love about the media platforms is the same as here on the blog. I absolutely love getting to connect with those that read what I have written or watch the content I have created on other platforms.

As for me, well I’m just your simple Witch living in The South. I enjoy doing crafts, reading, writing – obviously -, hanging out with my friends, and just loving and living my life to the best of my ability. That and spending time with my mama and my beloved darling, Ms. Katherine Elizabeth, who you can follow at her own Instagram here. I love to get dressed up some days while other days my hair is in a messy bun and I’m wearing my favorite my favorite comfy clothes.

So, please, come on in, grab your sweet tea, and sit a spell!

My love,


Trula Marie
