Vintage Charm Party #131 and April Feature of the Month

May 2, 2018

Welcome to Vintage Charm Party #131! 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, we'd like to announce our

APRIL FEATURE OF THE MONTH:

Drum roll please..... Congratulations goes to 

Virginia of Artsy VaVa



Our friend Virginia from Artsy VaVa received a free table after purchasing some furniture from a fellow junker. Though it had seen better days, Virginia transformed her freebie with paint and succulents to create a charming statement piece.  Visit Virginia to see the step by step tutorial for her fun succulent table. Great job, Virginia!

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


Jonni from Minnie's Milestones is a true kindred spirit. She loves vintage, white paint and DIY! She purchased some white doors from Lowe's with an idea for a headboard. And boy, did she deliver! You have to see it to believe it -- her Transfer Art Headboard is a true thing of beauty. I want both the brick wall AND the headboard! Drop by to see her fabulous DIY headboard and learn exactly how she did it. Trust me, you can do it, too!   


Cecilia's Pick



Oh, how I love a thrifty dollar store upcycle and I bet you're going to love this one too! Amber from Follow the Yellow Brick Home shared simple, yet elegant DIY 5 Minute French Country Lavender Pots. Her creative use of peat pots added that little something extra to the potted lavender she found at Dollar Tree to create the prettiest little gifts--just in time for Mother's Day! Drop by her blog to get the details to make your own.
