Vintage Charm Party #96

August 17, 2017

Vintage Charm is a vintage-themed link party where awesome thrifters and collectors link up each week with something new!

Welcome to Vintage Charm Party #96! 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 first, let's find out what our hostesses have been up to!

Weekly Features

It's been difficult for us to choose just one feature each. Your vintage finds, vignettes and just plain creativity have been awesome!

Kathleen's Pick




Michelle from Our Crafty Mom really IS a crafty mom! As a Dollar Store junkie, I'm always on the lookout for thrifty home decor projects. And this one of Michelle's is genius! In her DIY Lantern With Dollar Store Frames post she shares a tutorial on how she made a coastal-vibe-y hurricane lantern for $6.00! This might just have to be my summer-is-almost-over DIY project.....be sure to stop by and get all the details. 

Cecilia's Pick



Rita from Panoply shared a charming tablescape featuring her collection of vintage blue and white china. Am I Blue Plate Special is a delightful reflection that includes related trivia plus the history of her post's title, as well as the patterns and dates of her lovely collection. It doesn't get much better - oh, unless you add gorgeous fresh hydrangeas from Rita's garden!
