Welcome to Pallet and Pantry! I’m so glad you stopped by!
I’m Christine-the voice behind the blog. I live in a small town in SE Minnesota with my husband, Michael, and fur baby, Bentley!
Together we have four children and two grandchildren!
I started this blog as a way to document the renovation of our current 100+-year-old home, but over the years it has morphed into something quite bigger than that.
Renovating an older home can be a big challenge and cost quite a bit of $ To stay within budget I’ve taken one of my greatest passions-salvaging old thrift store items and have repurposed them to create modern decor and furnishings. I’ve also learned through trial and error that sometimes if you use a little ingenuity and creativity you can turn something simple and inexpensive into high-end-looking decor pieces!
Sharing these simple, fun DIY projects and having them inspire you all is one of my greatest joys!
Along with another great passion of mine, which is baking fresh homemade recipes that even us busy folks can do! Without a lot of fuss, of course!
Over the years I’ve changed up many traditional recipes with different flavors and ingredients to fit our needs while trying to maintain a “healthy-ish” lifestyle!
My hope is you’ll find plenty of inspiration here at Pallet and Pantry for your home and your tummies!
Christine
