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

Our friend, Tiffany, from Tee Diddly Dee, is a master wood worker in my book. Last week she shared another one of her original creations that I took to be vintage, even though it was new! She's that good:) It's truly a talent to be able to make something new look old, and she's certainly done it with her DIY Vintage Calendar Display. Be sure to drop by and check it out along with her great tutorial!

Cecilia's Pick

Our friend, Lisa from Fresh Vintage by Lisa S. used Old Silverware to Craft Wind Chimes and her post includes a video so you can hear how they sound! Lisa used one of my favorite go-to-supplies to construct her fun project but I'll let you find out for yourself when you pay her a visit!

(Does #6 say "Prizes"???)

1. Content: Submit up to three posts that involve vintage finds, crafts, DIYs and other vintage subject matter. No shops or direct advertising, please.

2. Link-back: We'd love it if you'd include the Vintage Charm button or a text link back to the party in your linked post.

3. Visitation: Please visit other blog posts -- after all that's what a link-up is all about. When pinning please go to the source of the photo to pin it so the originator of the post gets the credit.

5. Spread the Word: Consider mentioning Vintage Charm on your social media to help spread the word and make this party a great experience for everyone.

6. Prizes: Keep in mind that each month we will select one of the month's featured posts to be featured on both hostesses' blogs. At the end of the year one of the twelve monthly features will be selected as the Grand Prize Feature of the Year. Prize TBA.

7. Permission: By linking up to Vintage Charm you assert that the photographs are yours (or you have permission to use them) and you give your hostesses permission to feature them on social media or a blog party with a link back to your blog.
