Welcome to Vintage Charm Party #442
and May 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 May Feature of the
Month:
I've always loved crafts that incorporate vintage
and/or unique items that hold a special place in our
hearts. Our friend Lora from Create & Ponder has found a way to do just that. She incorporates
vintage hankies she's received from family members
into a fabulous "wreath" embellished with -- wait for
it -- vintage brooches! Be still, my heart! You can't
get more unique than that. Drop by Nostalgic DIY Handkerchief Wreath With Vintage
Pins to see her stunning creation and get the
tutorial.
Now let's find out what our
hostesses have
been up to!
Kathleen
Cecilia
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 true chandelier junkie, especially when they're
the result of a great DIY. Our good friend Kim from
Exquisitely Unremarkable has done just that -- she's taken a plain Jane generic
chandelier and turned it into a one of a kind light
fixture. Drop by Romantic DIY Cottage Style Bedroom Chandelier to learn how she did it!
Cecilia's Pick
Carol from The Answer is Chocolate shared lovely DIY Embossed Metal Flower Bottle Tops--talk about elevating a dollar store find--WOW! The
bee-adorned bottles were pretty to begin with but our
friend's embellishments are next level. Visit Carol
for all the details!

Happy Wednesday and what a lovely surprise to come and link up and find my Metal Flower Bottle Toppers featured. Thank you so much!
Thanks for having us over, Kathleen. Loved seeing all your great plate racks and gorgeous transferware.
I love the handkerchief wreath, it reminds me of my Grandmother, she always carried a pretty floral hanky in her pocket or purse. Thanks so much for hosting, I appreciate coming to visit and share with your readers, have a great week ahead! Melynda @scratchmadefood!
