About Roofresh

My name is Kelsey, not Roofresh, but Roo IS my nickname. I live in the Phoenix area with my husband and we are having fun being newlyweds and going on crazy adventures together. We like finding new hangouts, food, art, music and friends; so that's pretty much what my blog is about. You'll find a bit of fashion, design, nutrition and family sprinkled throughout my content, or anything else that catches my eye at the moment. My blog has changed a lot over the last year, but you'll see that it's really just a record of our lives together; our public journal.

Valentine's Day Freebie!

So I've been experimenting with a lot more aspects of design lately. I would still very much consider myself a beginner, but it's still fun to play around and experiment.

I had a friend at work tell my about how their child's school is no longer calling the 14th of February 'Valentine's Day' but 'Friendship Day' instead. I think situations like that are a little ridiculous, and maybe it's just because I personally have a thick skin, but I think people are too easily offended sometimes. I understand that there are certain situations in which standards may need to change, or an individual may have a right to feel slightly hurt...but V-day, come on.

So I got to thinking, what if we couldn't call it Valentine's Day at our work or place of employment? What would our Valentine's look like? Thus my free download was born! These are just a cute little play on the concept, and I brought them into my office and they were actually a hit!

Let me know what you think!

A Sprinkle of Lovelies {#1}

I think one of the best parts of being a blog follower is all of the fun inspiration it brings. Sometimes it's nice just to see a photo and enjoy it. So I thought I would sprinkle you with a few I've been enjoying lately from the inter-webs...

Practical Art

When Jim and I went to the Clarendon in Phoenix last month, I was really inspired and attracted to their window coverings. That sounds funny, but I thought this was a great way to decorate but be practical and add color to a room all at the same time. This piece was a canvas painting that was modified to run along a track. The track was just metal tubing on the wall and the painting was attached with some PVC* that went on the outside of the tubing. They left theirs white, but if the industrial look isn't for you, the hardware could always be hand painted or even spray painted a uniform color to go along with your motif. 



I hope you've been inspired to change your space!

*When shopping for PVC or other plastic/hardware items please look for safe plastic items. If there is a "3" above the "V" on the material that could mean that it is not made out of a safe plastic. If items have a distinct vinyl smell to them, it could mean that they are made out of polyvinyl chloride which is a potentially hazardous material.
