Our Hopeful Home: Vintage Charm Party #484 and March Feature of the Month

Welcome to Vintage Charm Party #484

and March 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

March Feature of the Month:

Cindy from Country Road 407!

I've always loved shabby chic just about anything, including lamps. One of my favorites is a deconstructed lamp with no shade that I've had in my craft room for years. Well, now I have an idea for a "shade"! Cindy from Country Road 407 shares a simple yet stunning idea in How To Create the Easiest Vintage Lampshade Ever. Visit to get her easy DIY!

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 always love a good picture frame project, and this one is absolutely darling (not to mention inexpensive and easy)! Steph from Steph Creates Things has transformed a Dollar Tree frame into some truly spring-y 3-D tabletop decor. Visit Cute Spring Decor: DIY Dollar Tree Frame to get the tutorial.

Cecilia's Pick

Lynn from Thrifting Wonderland welcomes the new season by celebrating the beauty of nature in Spring Awakening: A Garden's Journey. If you've been busy in the garden like I have, you'll appreciate our friend's thoughtful reflections and lovely photographs like this sweet feathered friend she captured. Drop by for a visit and blooming inspiration!

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.
