Our Hopeful Home: Vintage Charm Party #292 and June Feature of the Month

Welcome to Vintage Charm Party #292

and June Feature of the Month!

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

June Feature of the Month:

Drum roll please......

Congratulations goes to Claire

Pillar Box Blue!

Our friend Claire from Pillar Box Blue is a super-talented artist in so many ways. Most recently she conjured up some absolutely lovely paper mache teacups. Not only are they oh-so-pretty, they double as cute catch-alls and all-around pretty decor. Oh, and her tutorial is fabulous as well! So be sure to visit How To Make Decoupage Paper Mache Teacups for all the details.

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 Linda from Paper Seedlings is a super-talented paper crafter. She creates professional quality greeting cards that I know I would buy in a heartbeat if I saw them in a store. Most recently she created some fun, summer cards to reflect the season. Drop by Summery Paper Pumpkin to see them and check out her blog for other cards and crafts as well!

Cecilia's Pick

Sharing a fabulous throw pillow hack, Regina at Saved from Salvage is a girl after my own heart! She creatively repurposed a table runner to create a budget friendly pillow with high-end appeal! Pay her a visit for all the details!

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.
