    A Fresh Farmhouse Tablescape

    Tablescapes are becom­ing one of my very favorite things to cre­ate in my home. I real­ly like for them to non-tra­di­tion­al in a way. Like most of my decor, I enjoy shop­ping my own home for items that I can bring togeth­er for a cohe­sive look or theme with­out going out and buy­ing a bunch of new decor. I mean, if it’s alreayd in your home it is like­ly gonna already fit into your over­all theme. In addi­tion to not want­i­ng to spend a ton, I want­ed to cre­ate a tablescape that would wear well for an every day fresh…

    Vintage Valentine’s Day Mantle Decor

    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…

    Simple Wood Block Houses

    I am see­ing these adorable ceram­ic nest­ing hous­es all over the place. Not only do they make adorable addi­tions to your Christ­mas decor, they are also great piences to have sit­ting out year round. My favorite part you may ask? The sim­plic­i­ty, of course. I like to keep things neu­tral over here at R+R and these lit­tle beau­ties just sim­ply make me happy. These are just your basic 2x cut to a point so that they resem­ble a rooftop. My lengths from bot­tom to tip are 10,7, and 5 inch­es. Cut them your­self or sim­ply order a set HERE Then, paint…

    Simple DIY Nativity Using Cinnamon Sticks

    I orginal­ly shared this project over on my Face­book page. It was such a hit I decid­ed to write it down step for step for easy ref­er­ence lat­er. Go ahead and save this one to your Christ­mas Pin­ter­est board…you will thank me later!  It all start­ed with a piece of scrap­wood or you can get a pre-cut wood block HERE and my favorite shade of white, Alabaster by Sher­win Williams. After paint­ing my wood block I cut a piece of hym­nal paper in a basic house, or in this case, sta­ble shape. This step can eas­i­ly be sub­si­tut­ed with an old…
