    Simple Winter Display Using Upcycled Garland and Painted Sticks

    Christ­mas is less than a week away and that means it will soon be time to start prepar­ing to tran­si­tion your home decor from fes­tive to some­thing more sea­son­al. I love dec­o­rat­ing for win­ter because by-nature things are more sim­ple. I love the shades of whites and woods found in nature dur­ing this time of year and it is the per­fect time to bring a lit­tle bit of the out­doors inside…where it’s warm. This project uti­lizes sticks from the yard, seri­ous­ly it does­n’t get any cheap­er AND upcy­cled gar­land that I found at the thrift store a cou­ple weeks ago. I…

    How to Make a Rustic Embroidery Hoop Wreath

    This DIY embroi­dery hoop wreath is the per­fect addi­tion to your rus­tic Christ­mas decor. This project start­ed much like the oth­ers, with a trip to the thrift store! Which if you know me, is my absolute favorite place to shop for sup­plies. I always keep my eye open for wood hoops, wood uten­sils and any oth­er pieces that can be repurposed. When I’m not thrift­ing I am raid­ing the scrap wood pile for sup­plies. That is exact­ly why I cre­at­ed Roost + Restore Sup­ply; to give peo­ple access to the wood you need to make your projects come to life!…

    Fall Front Porch Styling Tips

    I am knees deep in trans­form­ing dif­fer­ent parts of the home­stead into beau­ti­ful fall bliss. My man­tle is fin­ished and pump­kins are scat­tered through the liv­ing space. Next up on my agen­da is the front porch. My porch area, in this home, has always pre­sent­ed itself to be chal­leng­ing ans some­times pricey to dec­o­rate. For one, I am not in love with the exte­ri­or col­ors of the house, and the bud­get does­n’t have room for a fresh coat of paint, let alone all-new sid­ing. Soooo, all my wor­ries aside, I plan to do my best to light­en up the space…

    Easy Natural Fall Tablescape Step-By-Step

    Since mov­ing in our home a lit­tle over a year ago, we have done sev­er­al DIY projects togeth­er as a fam­i­ly. Most of which I regret not doc­u­ment­ing. My favorite project to date was the din­ing room table we built as a fam­i­ly. I did cap­ture a few of the spe­cial moments of us build­ing as a fam­i­ly but I cer­tain­ly wish I had more of the process to share with you all. Any­way, all feel­ings aside, I had nev­er had a table like this before. It’s approx­i­mate­ly 7 ft long and can seat up to 8 peo­ple. Need­less to say,…
