So there is a funny back story to how this cabinet came to be. If you know me then you know I like to online shop in the middle of the night. I sometimes wake up in the middleof th night and have trouble going back to sleep so I shop and daydream until I get drowsy again. Weeeeeell, here’s the thing. I sometimes buy things and completely forget about my commitment to pick them up or that I even bought it in the first place. Yeah, I know, weird huh? That is exactly what happened here, with this cabinet. I…

I am elbows deep in packing boxes and cleaning out soooo much clutter before we move. That is how I discovered the peices for this little gem. I was in my “office” which has really just become a storage area forall of my supplies and projects when I came across these candles, and an old broken tray. They were not stored together and, in fact, separately, they all looked pretty sad. With me being in clean-out mode they were tossed mindlessly into the donate box. Yep, this project almost didn’t even happen. It wasn’t until I was loading things into…

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!

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!…
