Welcome to Vintage Charm Party #99! Thanks to all who linked up last week. And if you're new here, welcome! We appreciate each and every one of you who continues 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.
AUGUST'S FEATURE OF THE MONTH:
Congratulations Goes To.....
Kathleen of Everything Karupped!
Now, let's find out what our hostesses have been up to!Congratulations Goes To.....
Kathleen of Everything Karupped!
I was so impressed with the lovely Reupholstered Bench Before and After by Kathleen from Everything Karupped. Not only did she see potential beyond some pretty dreadful stripes and breathe new life into a bench that had seen better days, Kathleen was oh-so-thrifty and just plain smart in the process! Pay her a visit to see just how she did it and how little she actually spent!

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
Roxanne over at The Honeycomb Home has completed an awesome DIY project that I SO wish I had done myself! She and her husband took a vintage, chippy, shabby fireplace mantel and created the perfect custom DIY fireplace surround for it. They then put it all together and installed it as a gorgeous, decorative focal point in their living room -- and it looks so real! And I'm not kidding when I say I wish I had done this -- I already had my husband scouring Craigslist for a vintage mantel (to surprise me with at Christmas, of course!) before I even read about this one. You've got to stop over and see this beauty, as well as Roxanne's detailed instructions and tips on how to DIY it for yourself. Thank you, Roxanne!

Lauren at Wonderfully Made shared her latest project, a charming Vintage Shabby Chic Bedside Table that she upcycled from a thrift store find. I just love how it turned out! Pop over to see the tutorial for her timeworn technique and the before photo of her transformation.
