June 16, 2021 by thevettelfarm

When I first walked through the Victorian on Van Buren the upstairs kitchen truly captured my heart. It dated back to 1895 and had all bead board cabinets and the original vintage sink.

I am so ecstatic to be sharing the first bathroom of the Victorian on Van Buren renovations. Bathrooms were the one area in our farmhouse that we have not yet tackled, so to renovate these historic spaces in the Victorian on Van Buren was such an exhilarating project. The main bathroom was original to the home in 1895 (when the second story was added). It had marvelous bead board surrounding the entire space and an epic claw foot tub. The footprint of this bathroom stayed very close to what it originally was in 1895. Here are a few elements that were changed: 1) The original claw foot tub was moved out and a smaller, more appropriate size, historic claw foot tub was put in it's place. ...

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. 🇺🇸
