Originally from a small beach town in South Jersey, Danielle Williams has always had a passion for design and fine stationery. From a young age she appreciated the romance of sending handwritten letters; spending hours rewriting them word by word until they were flawless. Danielle considered no detail too small— hand selecting the finest papers, perfect ink colors, and ornate vintage stamps to compliment her creations. To this day it is these small touches that define her style.
Art and design have always been part of Danielle's life. She constantly finds ways to make the most ordinary things unique; a trait that was exemplified when it came to planning her 2014 Hamptons wedding— the same event that lead her to fall in love with not only calligraphy, but the wedding industry itself.
Danielle graduated with a degree in psychology from Syracuse University in 2011 and spent the first part of her career in visual merchandising, but in her heart she knew that she wanted to follow a more creative path. It was a relocation from New York to Texas that gave her the opportunity to make that dream a reality.
Enchanted with the art of calligraphy, Danielle began self-educating herself on the practice by taking every moment that she could to explore the various methods. This fascination then expanded into attending Modern Calligraphy Summits and taking courses on Skillshare as she set out to perfect the skill. As custom orders began to come in it was becoming clear that calligraphy was evolving into more than just a hobby for Danielle, and in 2017 Danielle Williams Calligraphy was born.
After spending 5 years in Houston Danielle now lives in Linwood, NJ with her her husband and two young children. When she's not chasing around her two toddlers you can find her at her exploring new gluten-free restaurants, reading home decor blogs, and binge watching way too much Netflix. A few of her favorite things include: drinking iced lattes no matter the temperature, enjoying a crisp glass of rosé or Ranch Water on a sunny day, and day dreaming about being on the beach.
