About

hello dear ones!  i’m bonnie and going home to roost is dedicated to everything handmade and anything homegrown.  i love to roost, and to me that means nesting in my home and doing the things that i love.  i’m always seeking the next creative endeavor, inspiring artists and beautiful material- and my purpose here is to share those with you!

since i was little, i’ve always loved learning to create things.  i live snuggled back in the beautiful mountains of north carolina and gather endless inspiration from living a simpler way of life. along with writing here, i own a few etsy shops for handmade pillows, kitchen aprons and tea towels and the occasional vintage find. over the last seven years, i’ve become a knitter, a gardener, a candle maker, a cook, a jewelry designer, a wife, an illustrator, a yoga instructor, a blogger and a keeper of chickens!  i would love for you to join my journey in finding out what’s next!

you can find us here every weekday discussing the handmade life, diy projects, recipes, shop reviews, gardening, creative ideas, and living a more sustainable life.  i look forward to getting to know you!
