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

I am a huge fan of chippy, rusty things, especially galvanized metal. Even better if it can be upcycled into something useful and new. That's what Lisa from Fresh Vintage By Lisa S did -- with an old, worn out chicken feeder! She planted Succulents In A Stenciled Chicken Waterer/Feeder and created a lovely outdoor attraction. I'm not sure where I can find one of those feeders, Lisa, but you can be sure I'm on the lookout!

Cecilia's Pick

Carol, blogger at From My Carolina Home has been busy this summer Creating Yard Art. I especially love that she repurposed the doves from her wedding cake topper so that she can enjoy them daily in her garden. Don't they look lovely tucked in the colorful dianthus pinks? Pay Carol a visit to see what she used to transform her doves!
