Our Hopeful Home: Vintage Charm Party #476 and January Feature of the Month

Welcome to Vintage Charm Party #476

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:

Missy from Sonata Home Design!

As a flower lover, I'm a huge proponent of finding new ways to refurbish vessels in which to display my garden flowers. Missy from Sonata Home Designs understands that, and has created a beautiful, unique vase we can all DIY. Visit How To Make DIY Crackle Glass for the tutorial.

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

I'm a huge fan of quick and easy Valentine's crafts. That's why I love the one created by Darcy from Life with Darcy & Brian. My kids made this back in the day and I loved it! It's quick and easy and you can make it yourself or with the kids! Visit Tissue Paper Heart Suncatcher Craft to see it and get the details.

Cecilia's Pick

I am always on the lookout for unique wreath alternatives like the sweetheart of an idea shared by Ann from The Apple Street Cottage. How cute is this?! Drop by Upcycled Tea Towel Becomes Sweet Valentine Wreath for all the lovely details!
