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 think of Fourth of July as a no-muss, no-fuss holiday. Cold salads, cool drinks, a pool or other body of water (if you're lucky) and a yummy dessert, followed by fireworks, of course! Our friend Raquel from Organized Island has just the dessert - fresh, inviting, easy to make and patriotic to boot! Visit Fourth of July Fruit Skewers and grab the recipe!

Cecilia's Pick

I love a pretty collection and Moss Rose China in the Dining Room shared by Debbie from Debbie Dabble Blog does not disappoint! I intentionally featured the photo of our friend's gathered dishes before she arranged them in her hutch to give you a closer glimpse of the lovely little details, so be sure to hop on over to see Debbie's beautiful displays!

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.

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.
