Welcome to Vintage Charm Party #33
and May's Feature of the Month!
Thanks to all who linked up last week. And if you're new here, welcome! We appreciate each and every one of you who continue to come back and party with us. We're in constant awe of your creativity and talent! And once again we can’t wait to see what vintage goodies, finds and projects you all have to share with us today.
But before we get this party started, we'd like to reveal Vintage Charm's May Feature of the Month.
Drumroll, please........
Vintage Charm's May Feature of the Month is
Start At Home Décor!
Brooke from Start at Home Decor claims that she's not an artist, but I don't think I believe her. I'd say that it's just the opposite! Her artistic talent is boldly displayed in her Dandelion Hand Painted Dresser that really pops with her fun, dandelion-covered drawer fronts. I love it so much that I think I might even try it myself! Stop by and check it out, along with more of Brooke's fabulous furniture projects.

Congratulations, Brooke!

Kathleen’s Pick
Michelle from The Painted Hinge shares her ingenuity and a gardening tip
we can all use. She creates a DIY
Clean Draining Planter Box out of an old grape box, and boy does
it look great! Stop on over and check out its vintage goodness!
Sharon’s Pick
Carol from Blue
Sky Kitchen inherited a gaudy gold cabinet from her Mother in Law.
After waiting a few months Carol decided it was time to give the cabinet
a makeover. She painted the outside of the cabinet Annie Sloan Paris Grey
with an Old White wash. She waxed the whole piece with clear wax then
went over the leaf motif with Annie Sloan Dark Wax to enhance the details. Go pay Carol a visit to see her gold and gaudy cabinet
makeover into a lovely
cabinet that she loves and enjoys.
Cecilia’s Pick
Cathy @My 1929
Charmer shares one of her favorite garden blooms--wisteria! Her photos of
the gorgeous blooming vine are stunning. She shares tips and cautions on caring
for wisteria and then delights us with her Wisteria
inspired tablescape. Wow! Cathy is a girl
after my own heart with her talent for pairing Goodwill linens and vintage
dishes and the result is simply charming!
Diana’s Pick
Don't you just love to
hear about "junk" being rescued and repurposed? Donna at Adventures
in Junking tells us, in Graniteware Gardening, about a hot tip her Uncle gave her. He passed
on some inside info about a pile of seriously cool cast-offs destined for the
dump that could be hers for the taking. And take she did...
Tuula’s Pick
I love transfer ware, but I've never found any in good condition in my neck of
the thrifting woods. Debbie from Debbie-Dabble shared her
amazing red
transfer ware estate
sale find...17 pieces, and at such a great price! You'll have to pop over and
check it out. It's so beautiful!

Thank you for hosting, Ladies. I never cease to be amazed by the creativity that is out there. That neck tie wreath is pure genius. And I know Kathleen and I will both be salivating over the antique Irish lace.
Thank you for the party, Kathleen! As usual it is full of wonderful projects :-) I hope you are having a wonderful week!
How great of you to host a party, it is a lot of work, but so appreciated! I have been out of blogging for a while too with the Polka Dot Flea preparations....But in a week I'll have all the time in the world to catch up
Carol
