Our Hopeful Home: Vintage Charm Party #348 and July Feature of the Month

Welcome to Vintage Charm Party #348

and

July 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

July Feature of the Month.

Congratulations Go To Ann

From Apple Street Cottage!

Our friend Ann from Apple Street Cottage has accomplished not one, but two awesome Dollar Tree wreath form projects. I never bought the witch's hat wreath form before but you can bet I will now! Her most recent creation using that wreath form is a gorgeous Summer Ice Cream Cone Wreath! And if you read the post you can find out about her other nifty witch's hat wreath form transformation (can you say carrot?)!

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

Diane from In My Own Style has created her own version of a high-end piece of furniture (from Serena & Lily!) -- and I like her DIY version better! She shares how she did it, including a fabulous step-by-step tutorial you absolutely must check out. I'll be adding it to my arsenal of DIY tips and tricks. Visit Designer Inspired Two Tiered Table Makeover to get all the fabulous details.

Cecilia's Pick

Our friend Kristin at White Arrows Home shared her recipe for a Peach Arnold Palmer. Doesn't it look refreshing? Visit Kristin for both the alcoholic and virgin versions so you can indulge in this yummy cocktail!

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.
