Welcome to Vintage Charm Party #425 and January 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 January Feature of the Month:
Steph from Steph Creates!

Diy tea bag holder

Our friend Steph from Steph Creates has created a most lovely DIY gift. And if you're a tea lover you're gonna love this! Check Out How To Make a Charming Tea Bag Holder Using a Garden Pot and Wood Circle  to get the details.

Now let's find out what our 
hostesses have been up to!

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  

25 Elizabeth Blackwell Curious Herbal Prints

One easy way to transform your decor is to switch out wall art from time to time. And our friend Claire of Picture Box Blue has just the thing you need to accomplish that transformation. Claire shares wonderful works of art in the public domain that you can download and print out for yourself for free! Most recently she shared some beautiful herbal illustrations. My favorite is the red poppy! Drop by 25 Free Elizabeth Blackwell Curious Herbal Illustrations and pick out a favorite of your own!  

  Cecilia's Pick 

Santos sculpture with rosaries

MaryJo from MasterPieces of My Life has been featured here more than once for the kind of lovely things we all love to admire. Although life isn't always "pretty," my admiration for our friend has only grown stronger as she shared from her heart this week about her Prognosis and Living with MS.  I can't recommend this post enough for anyone who is living with or caring for someone with chronic illness. Pay MaryJo a visit and share some love!

Party Guidelines
(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.

4. Hostess Love: Consider following each of your party hostesses' blogs and/or one or more forms of social media. We love connecting with each of our guests and will be highlighting features on all of our social media.

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. You will likewise assert that the content of the post is your own.

What a great shared feature this week, Kathleen! I'm one who loves to change art in the house through the year. Claire's find is sweet! Thanks for the party, and have a great weekend.
