I haven’t crafted a whole lot of Easter decor this season and I have been saving a little wood cross I found at my local dollar store for when the inspiration hit. Today was the day! I made the most beautiful Easter cross decor display using that dollar store find and a few items from my home decor boutique, Roost and Restore Home. It all started when I was making my usual Monday morning stroll through the store. I like to look around the displays after a couple days off to see if there is anything that needs to be…

Everyone needs a little cabinet of curiosities, right? If you haven’t owned one at some point I am willing to bet you know someone who does! I remember the old fashioned curios that we’re really popular in the late 80s early 90s. My mom had one filled with angels she used to collect. Glass cabinet styling back then meant you placed your most prized possessions behind the glass doors and then truly they became dust collectors that no one was allowed to touch. I was recently gifted an old-fashioned oak curio from my aunt and I was excited to get my…

Styling coffee tables has become one of my favorite ways to quickly change up my decor for different seasons or occasions. Lately I have been making a lot of new DIY decor pieces from the DIY DECOR BOX and I was so excited to see them all come together so beautifully as my coffee table decor for Spring.

I grabbed a collection of Springy florals from the local dollar store recently and I knew i wanted to create a Spring dough bowl flower arrangement with them. I loved the combination of colors when I brought them together and thought it would be a fun project to try my floral arranging skills with. It would be fairly simple to achieve a similar look. If you don’t have a dough bowl, we offer them at R+R Home. They come with a beautifully scented candle inside that can either be repoured or repurposed like I did with this arrangement. I started…

I was recently gifted an older style cabinet of curiosities from my aunt and I immediately knew I would use it to display some of my favorite collected items from our wedding. We had an old fashioned style wedding so it seemed fitting to create an old fashioned curio cabinet display that would revive the memories of our special day. For nearly 9 years I have been shuffling keepsakes from my wedding around my home until eventually I tucked them in a tote in the back of a storage closet never to be seen. After you see how beautiful everything looks…
