A place for creativity and discovery

read our little story
Meet the Raines family
When we first created this space, I wasn’t sure if I was ready to tell our family's story. This place became one of life, encouragement, and creative expression as time passed. Our family learned the power of our story, and I learned the joy of being a mother of four amazing children.
Our life will never be the same because of the freedom I found in this space, and I hope the same can be said for you. I wish I could sit down with you and have a conversation. But for now, scroll down and explore how I can help you wherever you are.

Shop some of my favorites
One of my passion is to help mothers, just like I discover the joy of creativity through videos, relational resources, and fashion essentials.
I want to invite you to begin the journey of building your family, wardrobe, and wisdom by shopping for my fun and exciting favorites. Feathers & Forest is all about discovering the joy and life of family, motherhood, and personhood. I hope you find something that you love!
FILAMENT HOOP, YELLOW GOLD
$ 36.00
A fine filament of gold — the slimmest hoops to wear every day. A nice finishing touch in extra special 18k gold when you want just the littlest hint of gold. They are sold as singles or pairs.
THOUSAND SUMMERS BRACELET
$ 56.00
Shines on and on, like a thousand summer suns. Works perfectly (like a charm!) with our charms, pendant, and tokens, also so good on its own. Hundred Summers is a Catbird exclusive, an ultra-fine, diamond-cut, and hand-twisted chain, like a streaming strand of sunlight to wear on days luminous and otherwise.
our story thus far
Four years outside of our comfort zone
“Like arrows in the hands of a warrior are children born in one’s youth. Blessed are those whose quiver is full of them.” - Psalm 128
It has been almost four years since my family and I began this journey of sharing our story publicly. We have since moved into an RV, bought 5 acres of land, built our dream home, and grew closer. This space has helped transform my life, and it has helped encourage others to learn, listen, and create more. When we started this space, I had no idea that so many people would find what we are doing inspiring. I am so glad we stepped out of our comfort zone and did this!
We are excited to see what our family does in the new year and share our latest project! Aaron and I will co-create a family-fueled, spirit-led, and creatively motivating e-course! Look for it in the fall!
