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 Niky from The House on Silverado noticed something that I did, too -- copper has become an uber-popular fall decor color. So much so that, according to Nicky, "Copper is the new orange!" Drop by Easy DIY Copper Pumpkins to see exactly what she means and how she embraced the trend!

Cecilia's Pick

When these darling fabric mushrooms created by Claire from Pillar Box Blue appeared in my Instagram feed, I was instantly smitten! Our friend uses a variety of fabrics to craft her whimsical toadstools, but my favorites are those created from leftover velvet swatches from her recent sofa purchase. Clever Claire provides a detailed tutorial so you can make your own, and she also shares photos for different ways to use them--like the embellished Christmas ornaments below! Pay her a visit for more creative ideas!

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.
