Merry Grinchmas Bedroom 2022

November 27, 2022 by thevettelfarm

Do you remember the girls' Grinch bedroom from last year? We had so much fun with it last year, that we decided to recreate the look in the nursery for this year! We found the most adorable Grinch blow mold at Walmart and we had to have another fun Grinchy bedroom! I can still remember watching the Grinch on cable television every Christmas and how excited I was to read the story in school too! It is such a colorful story with a wonderful meaning. One of my favorite additions to the bedroom this year was a sign that reads, "“Maybe Christmas he thought doesn’t come from a store. Maybe Christmas perhaps means a little bit more.” Click any of the photos below to shop some of the ...

This is what nostalgia looks like in red, white, a This is what nostalgia looks like in red, white, and blue. 🇺🇸 An antique carousel horse, weathered crocks, and American flags waving in the summer breeze.

Maybe that’s why we love old things. They remind us of county fairs, Main Streets, front porch conversations, and summers that seemed to last forever. Not because the past was perfect, but because these treasures help us hold on to the memories that matter most.

Here’s to preserving history, celebrating Americana, and finding beauty in the stories that came before us. ❤️🤍💙

Happy Memorial Day! 🇺🇸 AI images are starting to r Happy Memorial Day! 🇺🇸 AI images are starting to really get me down,  so here are a few real collections, faded colors, timeworn details, and the kind of nostalgia that can’t be generated by a prompt. Every flag, crockery, rusty sign, and patriotic trinket carries a little piece of history with it.

Americana was never meant to be perfect. It was meant to be lived in. 🇺🇸

I find vintage books all the time, so I’m always l I find vintage books all the time, so I’m always looking for unique ways to use them and display them. For this DIY, I rolled the pages of vintage books into delicate little holders for faux florals, turning worn paper and timeworn pages into something full of charm.

Sometimes the loveliest décor comes from the things people overlook at antique stores and thrift shops. A faded book. A little imagination. These would be fantastic for any season, wouldn’t they be magical for Christmas?!?!
