Doing things with intention.

About Heather Hunt-Benitez / A Cup of Dainty

As a mother to three little girls, it is more important than ever to learn who I am; for myself and my little ones.

Born in Lumberton, North Carolina, and raised in Georgia. I’ve always been a Southern girl at heart.

With roots that celebrate my vibrant Mexican-American and Lumbee heritage (Lumbee tribe of North Carolina), the values of family, tradition and storytelling have inspired everything I create.

Whenever I’m not chasing my little ones or filling the pages of my journal, you can usually find me thrifting or enjoying the rare quiet moments in our home.

A Cup of Dainty is my way of sharing this love for intentional living and reflection with others.

Let’s slow down together and get intentional

With gratitude,

Heather Hunt - Benitez

The Brand

Dainty - delicately small and pretty.

A Cup of Dainty is a love language, a love letter. Penned for my girls and myself. Inspired by the dainty, feminine art of being a woman. In a world where we are told to be a boss babes, grind, and do it all.

Join me, in slowing down, pouring ourselves a cup of herbal tea or coffee, journal, thrift, explore hobbies, and fix our cortisol levels together.

A Cup of Dainty is more than a brand, it’s a collection inspired by the women in my life, joy of cooking, planning, tricks, and what brings me joy.
