5 Vintage Fourth of July Tablescape Ideas

June 28, 2022 by thevettelfarm

Fourth of July in our area lends two paths - lake time or rodeos paired with parades. Most of my Fourth of July celebrations have been spent on the back of a horse in a rodeo arena carrying an American flag or waving to fans in the parade but I’m happy to report that this year will be much cooler for our family - AT THE LAKE! To kick off this Fourth of July pre-week I wanted to share a few patriotic ideas to incorporate a little vintage into your 4th of July festivities! Vintage Tablecloths Interestingly enough I only allow myself to collect vintage tablecloths that are red, white, and blue (and vintage Christmas tablecloths too). Vintage tablecloths have the cutest patterns and the ...

Vintage Patriotic Decor

July 1, 2019 by thevettelfarm

First it's Memorial Day, then Flag Day, then the FOURTH of JULY! So naturally summer is the best time to deck the halls with some red, white and blue of course! I want to share with you some fun ways to incorporate vintage charm into your patriotic farmhouse decor. Vintage Crocks - I have been an avid collector of Red Wing vintage crocks for a couple of years, which has graduated into collections of any vintage stoneware! This beautiful pottery with the blue accents makes for the perfect pieces to display greenery or a few American flags. Hang a large American flag - I lucked out and found this flag in the giveaway pile at my workplace, but I have seen glorious vintage American ...

I’ve recently noticed ads for 4-H in magazines and I’ve recently noticed ads for 4-H in magazines and I will tell you I am HERE FOR IT! 🍀 4-H was such an impactful program for me growing up and this collection brings me so much joy because it reminds me of all the wonderful memories I have in 4-H. I added a few key pieces this year that have been so fun, the 4-H dress, this new pennant and the sheep “GLAZE” crate. 🍀🍀

Were you in 4-H? 🍀🍀

This little Easter basket decor piece started as a This little Easter basket decor piece started as a well-loved vintage enamelware bowl, the kind that’s seen decades of kitchens, garden harvests, and family gatherings. Instead of letting it sit tucked away on a shelf, I wanted to turn it into something that feels like spring… soft, nostalgic, and full of charm. 🐇

I layered in faux grass, tucked in a few speckled eggs, added the sweetest vintage bunnies, faux florals, and let the character of that chippy enamel do all the talking. There’s something about the worn edges and tiny imperfections that makes it feel so much more meaningful than anything brand new. It tells a story and now it gets to be part of our Easter story, too. 🐇

I love creating pieces like this because they’re not just decor… they’re conversation starters. They feel gathered, not bought. Thoughtful, not rushed. And the best part? You don’t need anything fancy. Just an old bowl, a little imagination, and a love for keeping beautiful things in use.

Proof that even the simplest vintage piece can become the heart of your spring table! 🌷

Would you style this on a kitchen counter, dining table, or entryway?

I challenge you to use a little vintage this year for your Easter table! 🐇

This vintage cooler was too charming to leave behind, so I brought it home and gave it a new purpose, now it holds faux blooms. A little rust, a lot of history, and a few more chapters to live. 

Right? 🫣🫣🫣
