About Craft Your Nest

To craft is to make or produce something with care. A nest is a place of rest, retreat, or lodging. Thus, to craft your nest is create - with care - a place of rest and retreat. 

Lately, I've been fascinated by the concept of rest. Oxford defines rest as to "cease work or movement in order to relax, refresh oneself, or recover strength." I think that in our busy-ness, we've lost times of rest - and it's in those periods of stress and overwork that we need rest the most. So I invite you to join me on this journey of intentionally looking for places of rest.

I'll be sharing areas of my life that provide rest to me, and I hope they'll be encouraging to you as well. My focus is on faith, family, and hospitality, so posts will range from Bible studies to vacations to meal prep and entertaining to scrapbooking - all areas that represent rest to me. Ultimately, I want to create a site where creativity is shared and friendships are fostered. 

I hope you'll join me for this journey...welcome to the nest!
