I have been making the heck out of some Christmas ornaments lately. I am looking for any and every way to add something cute to my tree and it’s new theme without breaking the bank. Making ornaments has never really somehting I have been too passionate about until now simply because I typically like to my tree to be perfectly styled and “themed”. Nonetheless, all of the homemade ornaments are staring to grow on me. This tree in particular is taking on a more modern, neutral vibe without sacrificing that little something special. This ornament is super easy, cheap and…

Lately I have been on a roll with Christmas projects. I have slowly been “winterizing” my house with flocking and trees all over the place! I have also been crafting away at some DIY Christmas ornaments to add to the my newly themed tree this year! As you may already know, I am incorporating a lot of neutrals this year, and in addition to my flocked tree I am slowly adding lots of new DIY ornaments. Recently, I shared how to make these STAMPED WOOD BLOCK ORNAMENTS and today I am showing you a completely new type using mod podge, ribbon,…

Y’all.… in case you didn’t already know, I am in full blown Christmas mode over here! No I am not decorating yet but I sure am doing my best to prep and create decor for my transition from traditional reds and greens to a more neutral palette. Changing color schemes can be difficult and those price tags will start racking up quick! So far I have been making plenty of ornaments and picking up some here and there at the dollar stores around town. However, the trouble I am running into is that most of all the jumbo styled ornaments…

This is one of those projects that I didn’t totally come together until the very end. At first, the plain ole wood blocks do not look that impressive. I encourage you to stick this one out until the end. I think you will be presently surprised. I started with these cute little pre-cut wood blocks I have available in R+R SUPPLY. They are made of pine, and can easily be stained or sanded. A stamp set, paint, sandpaper and some string are all you need to complete these little gems! Start by painting your blocks and allow them to dry. Nothing…

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!…

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…

If you know me then you know how much I enjoy walking the isles of the dollar store. It’s exciting to see all the amazing goodies you can find for $1. Even if the product itself is a little “meh” I encourage you to think outside the box and imagine it with a fresh coat of paint or re purposed into something completely different! In this case a little spray paint and a coat of laquer was all I needed to transform a cheap looking tray into a beautiful piece of farmhouse fall decor! I chose a white spray paint because…

I seriously can’t believe it time to start thinking about Halloween already! This time of year for us is insanely busy…from birthdays to holidays it stays jam packed! So I get that it may be a bit early for Halloween for some but if I don’t plan ahead it just will not happen. This projects is super fun and made almost entirely of Dollar Tree supplies…even better! Start by adding hot glue to the rim of your terra cotta pot and pressing your Spanish moss to the glue. I really love the eeerie vibe the color of this moss gives…
