hello lovelies! it’s so nice to meet you! i’m bonnie and going home to roost is the blog 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!

i live snuggled back in the beautiful mountains of north carolina and gather endless inspiration from living a simpler way of life.  over the last seven years, i’ve become a knitter, a gardener, a candle maker, a cook, a jewelry maker, a wife, a yoga instructor, a blogger and a keeper of chickens!  i would love for you to join our journey in finding out what’s next!

you can read about what home means to me, see the big makeover, visit my etsy shops and find out more about how going home to roost began.  learn about my very first garden, my attempts at eating local foods and the loves of my life: my husband and our pup, toaster.  you can meet my backyard chickens, our latest additions, and the reason why i love having them so much in the first place.  feel free to ask me any questions, and i look forward to getting to know you!

you can find us here every weekday discussing the handmade life, diy projects, seasonal recipes, organic gardening, indie biz tips and ways to live a simpler life. see you soon!

stay in touch!
