The Vettel Farm

DIY, Home Decor, & Lifestyle blog

About

Hello, I am so happy you are here. My name is Courtney and I am the creator of The Vettel Farm. I am a wife, mom, retired school counselor, cook, photographer, writer, and former rodeo queen.

A few fun facts about me:

  • I was born in New York and lived there until I was 9. I then moved to South Dakota (culture shock) and now live in North Dakota (my forever home).
  • I have watched Martha Stewart and read the Martha Stewart Living Magazine since I was 7. I have a collection of every single magazine.
  • I collect cookbooks. I have way too many and I have moved them way too many times.
  • I studied French in high school, with hopes of traveling to France to learn how to cook French cuisine, but I can really only tell you my name and that I like butter in french now.
  • I studied photography and journalism in college.
  • I was Miss Rodeo South Dakota in 2009 and was 2nd runner up to Miss Rodeo America in 2010.
  • I have a masters in Counseling and worked as a school counselor for 10 years. I retired two years ago to stay home with my littles and run The Vettel Farm full-time.
  • I hope to write a cookbook or vintage home decor book someday.

~Courtney

Red, white, and blue never tasted so good. 🇺🇸 A l Red, white, and blue never tasted so good. 🇺🇸

A little nostalgia, a little summer sunshine, and a board full of patriotic favorites. Whether you’re gathering around the backyard picnic table, watching fireworks, or making memories with family, sometimes the simplest traditions become the ones we remember most.

Because the best Fourth of July decorations are the ones you can eat, right! 😆

Two pieces of American history… one frame. 🇺🇸 A v Two pieces of American history… one frame. 🇺🇸

A vintage flag that once flew proudly and sheet music that once filled a room with song, layered together to tell a story of home, heritage, and the generations that came before us.

I love finding new ways to preserve old treasures, especially when they carry so much history. I found this fantastic flag at the thrift!  What’s your favorite piece of Americana you’ve collected?

A stack of worn vintage tennis rackets, a handful A stack of worn vintage tennis rackets, a handful of small American flags, and a little imagination turned into the sweetest nod to summer nostalgia. 🇺🇸

There’s something special about giving old pieces a new purpose while preserving the stories they carry. These rackets have likely seen countless matches, and now they get to celebrate the 250th birthday of America! 🇺🇸

Proof that vintage treasures and a little red, white, and blue can make everyday decorating feel like a cherished memory. 🇺🇸

❤️🤍💙
