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.

Roofresh {Summer Goods Sale}

When I started my blog, it was actually to promote my Etsy store that I was hoping to open shortly after. If you've been paying attention to my blog at all, you'll realize that I have not announced any kind of store opening in the last 11 months. I think it's safe to say that I will not be opening my shop any time soon despite my good intentions. With that out in the open I will say that I did actually make some merchandise for my store and I would still like to sell it.

I think part of my fear of opening a shop was that I would not be able to keep up with the demand if it got popular. I have always enjoyed customizing things, and one of my favorite crafts growing up was always customizing my journals. Below you will find mostly custom made, hand-bound journals. They take quite a bit of time to make and it is a PROCESS. I love making them regardless of the work, and they are all one-of-a-kind.

If you see a journal that you like you can email me and if it's still available I will set up payment and shipping arrangements with you. I am still open to doing custom orders; If something you like is already sold, I am willing to make you a similar item but nothing identical to what's already been posted (excluding the Switzerland Wreath which is replicable).

{Rosebud Journal} Page Dimensions, 5 1/4 x 8, blank card stock pages
{$25.00}

{Cat Eyes Journal} Page Dimensions, 5 1/4 x 8 1/4, blank card stock pages 
{$25.00}

{Powder Blue & Lace Journal} Page Dimensions, 5 1/4 x 8 1/4, blank card stock pages
{$25.00}

{Rotatory Journal} Page Dimensions, 5 1/4 x 8 1/4, blank card stock pages
{$25.00}

{Mustache Plaid Journal} Page Dimensions, 5 1/2 x 8 1/4, blank card stock pages
This item differs slightly, it is made with the pages tied into the journal through grommets on the spine. The benefit of this is that the pages may be taken out and replaced when done. Keep in mind that the pages will slide around slightly in the cover.
{$25.00}

{Wallpaper Blue Notepad} Page Dimensions, 3 3/4 x 5 1/2, blank card stock pages
Note: Keep in mind if you plan on purchasing this item, that the cover is card stock as well and will be slightly more delicate.
{$5.00}

{Wooden Bead Necklace} Handmade, 12" long, approximately 15 1/2" neckline  SOLD
{$15.00}

{Rosebud Tweed Necklace} Handmade, approximately 24" chain  SOLD 
{$12.00}

{Switzerland Wreath} 12" Frame
Pinwheels made from recycled book pages; named after its neutral tone. This is the only item that I will duplicate upon request, also available in a larger size. 
{$40.00}

{Patchwork Pinwheel Wreath} 20" Frame Update, 18" Frame 
Card stock colored paper, custom orders only, this is a non-replicable item - item pictured below not for sale.
{Pricing based on order}

I hope that you found something you like! If so please email me and I would love to send one to your home! If there is an item that you really love but it already has another home now, I would love to work with you on making a new version to fit your style. 

Keep in real,
Roo

Please keep in mind while ordering that all of these items are handmade and that small flaws are common in handmade goods. All sales are final unless the usefulness of the item is compromised due to error in the creative process. No refunds are provided due to shipping damage.

Give Away on Femmena Mala!

I was approached a couple of weeks ago by Stephanie from "Femmena Mala" (via twitter) about doing a giveaway on her blog. I've never done a giveaway before, so I'm excited to do my first! Let me tell you, opening up your own online store, where everything on it is made by you, IS A LOT OF WORK. So even though I haven't "opened my doors" yet, I still wanted to participate to hopefully show you all what I've been up to. 
Here's a little peek at the handmade journal I'm giving away on her blog. If you click the link Here it will take you straight to the giveaway page. Stephanie will go into further detail about how you can get your hands on this little gem, along with more pictures and a description of my fancy little book. This one is called "Gentleman's Journal."  

Yay!

So what are you waiting for?!? Go get yourself a journal!

Roo

ps. There are nine other lovely items being given away as well!

Sneak Peek

So I know it's been a while of all talk and no store, so since the Etsy store is still in the works I thought I would put up a little sneak peek! :)
Well there you go! I hope you get a little more of an idea of what RooFresh is about and remember to keep checking in for the store opening!
Roo
P.S. You may have noticed the banner at the top looks a little different now. I'm working on my logo at the moment and may be tweaking it as time goes on; for now if you have any comments or thoughts I would love to hear them!
