    Incorporating Vintage Elements into Your Spring Decor

    12:30 PM - By 

    I am a suck­er for all things vin­tage. It is my jam. I see rust or chip­py paint and my heart real­ly does flut­ter and to answer your ques­tion, no I don’t think it’s going any­where in the decor world. In my Pin­ter­est search­ing, I found myself lin­ger­ing toward inspi­ra­tion that includ­ed nat­ur­al grass­es, flow­ers, moss ect. and decid­ed to gath­er a few of my favorites togeth­er for those that are like-heart­ed in their desire to mix in old­er ele­ments with the nat­ur­al beau­ty and new­ness that Spring brings. The pho­tos con­tain links to the orginal sources. Take this arrnge­ment…

    Dollar Tree Bowl Filler

    9:47 PM - By 

    I love using sim­ple items and bring­ing them togeth­er to cre­ate a unique piece of decor for my home. Today’s project does just that. After a recent trip to my local Dol­lar Tree I came home with some flo­ral moss, a bag of riv­er rocks and wood slices. Instead of just sim­ply throw­ing every­thing in a bowl, which you could total­ly do, I decid­ed to take things a step further. Sup­plies you will need for this project include: Rocks Flo­ral moss Wood Slices Dec­o­ra­tive Bowl Hot Glue There are real­ly only two easy steps to this process. Step one being attach moss…

    10 Decor Ideas Using Vintage Books

    5:42 AM - By 

    If you know me, you know I have a love for things with a touch of vin­tage. One of my favorite things to look for at thrift stores are old books. They are per­fect if you are look­ing to inco­po­rate a bit of the old with the new. I have gath­ered 10 beau­ti­ful­ly inspired decor ideas using old books.  Be inspired. A cute lit­tle stack wrapped in jute may be all you need to com­plete a cute lit­tle vignette. I love the com­bi­na­tion of the tex­tures here. The wood cheese box, the flow­ers and the books com­pli­ment each oth­er well. Did some­one…

    Vintage Valentine’s Day Mantle Decor

    6:20 PM - By 

    Ok y’all. So I have jumped on the band­wag­on and decid­ed to add just a touch of love to my decor for Valen­tine’s Day. I have not giv­en it much thought in years past but I am real­ly enjoy­ing the chal­lenge of incor­po­rat­ing the “feel” of Valen­tine’s with­out so much of the reds ros­es and pink plas­tic hearts.  I cre­at­ed this look by gath­er­ing a few signs I had in oth­er rooms of my home and brought them togeth­er to cap­ture a cen­tral theme. The largest one came right off my mas­ter bed­room wall. No kid­ding! When I dec­o­rate it…

    Rustic Farmhouse Kitchen Makeover

    9:02 PM - By 

    If you would have told me a year ago that I would be shar­ing images of my new­ly updat­ed dream kitchen I would have lol’d…BIG TIME! We were no where near buy­ing our for­ev­er home, in fact, we were rent­ing and bank­ing on buy­ing that place! But God…GOD had dif­fer­ent plans for our fam­i­ly. I din’t know exact­ly what they were at that point but I just had this feel­ing that we need­ed to wait.  The iron­ic part is I am a very VERY impa­tient per­son. When I get some­thing in my head, I want to jump to it right them…

    Easy Picture Frame Using Paint Sticks

    6:46 PM - By 

    Let me just start by say­ing this project is soooo sim­ple. But do not, I repeat, do not let the sim­plic­i­ty of some­thing fool you. This lit­tle frame packs a pret­ty big punch in the shelf sit­ting are­na. It all start­ed with a craft cart full of ran­dom­ness and a han­kerin to mae some­thing with my hands and..whala! Here is how you can recre­ate your very own! Start with some basic sup­plies, a glue gun, some quart size paint stir sticks or (even some lit­tle shims would work too) the back of an old pic­ture frame with the “leg” thingy attached,…

    How to Prep Your Cabinets for Paint

    4:51 AM - By 

    Okay, y’all. Let me just start by say­ing, I am not a pro­fes­sion­al painter. This is my sec­ond time tak­ing on this type of project but my first time doc­u­ment­ing the process. I com­plete­ly under­stand how over­whelm­ing it can become with the crazy amount of cab­i­net paint­ing tuto­ri­als that are out there. That is why I have tried my very best to break it down in the clear­est way possible.  We recent­ly moved into our for­ev­er home and even though I fell in love with the house, I did not love the cab­i­nets. And let me tell ya, if there…

    Simple Heart Clips for Valentine’s Day

    6:53 PM - By 

    Valen­tine’s Day is such a fun lit­tle hol­i­day to me. From mak­ing cards to giv­ing choco­lates, and all the roman­tic things in between; I think it’s fun. Is it super cheesy? Oh my word, yes! haha but… I real­ly don’t mind the label of a hope­less roman­tic if you choose to call me that. Even with all the love I have in my heart for the cel­e­bra­tions, it is just sim­ply one hol­i­day I don’t get excit­ed to dec­o­rate for sim­ple because of the bold col­ors that typ­i­cal­ly some along with it. Pinks, and reds, espe­cial­ly, just aren’t what I…

    Winter Decor Ideas for After Christmas

    8:45 PM - By 

    Although it is 60 degrees and I have my win­dows open, win­ter sol­stice has offi­cial­ly arrived here in West­ern Ken­tucky. Lucky for me this year I have focused more on win­ter­ing my decor from the begin­ning of the hol­i­day sea­son. Aside from tak­ing the Christ­mas tree down in a few days there is very lit­tle I will have to do to tran­si­tion the home­stead into a cozy abode this winter. I hope you enjoy gath­er­ing inspi­ra­tion from these spaces like I did bring­ing them togeth­er. Each idea is unique and would be a won­der­ful win­tery addi­tion to your home. I…

    Hey there, I’m Kaycee, just a small-town girl from West­ern Ken­tucky, shar­ing the ups and downs of my jour­ney. I live in a cozy lit­tle house with my two boys, Lin­coln and Ledger, and let me tell you, life’s been quite the ride! In 2018, I start­ed Roost and Restore Home—it was my lit­tle pas­sion project. From DIY crafts to home­made recipes, I poured my heart into cre­at­ing a warm and wel­com­ing space for every­one. By 2021, things were real­ly tak­ing off, and I was over the moon to open my own brick-and-mor­tar store. But then came 2022, and with it, a…
