Spring Living Room

March 16, 2022 by thevettelfarm

    Topiaries | Moss Bunnies | Butterflies | Bust Planter | Moss Ball | Moss Bunnies Set of 3 | Garland | Birch Cloche | Rug | Tulips Spring was in the air today, it was 65 degrees in North Dakota! Our family room is decked to the nines in bright springtime tones and lush greenery, I mean faux greenery. For our mantle this year I decided to do a "moss" theme inspired by all the fun moss bunnies I have been finding lately. We got a new rug in our living room space and I think this is my all time favorite! The colors are just perfect, neutral but a faint hint of green. The crowning jewel of the room is the faux tulips that took center stage. I use these all spring ...

Vintage Lamp Base DIY Candle Holders

March 4, 2022 by thevettelfarm

Vintage lamps are always so unique and quirky. They have been on the top of my thrifting list lately because of all the fun up-cycles you can create with them.

Most lamps unscrew in many different pieces. You can ...

The Vintage Hunt – March Edition

March 17, 2021 by thevettelfarm

March has flown by! March for many is a time to start thinking about Spring, but for us North Dakotans Spring is oftentimes still a few weeks away! Nonetheless, I still start to dream about spring by adding in fun elements of spring decor. And let's not forget the great holiday of St. Patrick's Day! I am very Irish, so this is often a holiday I don't forget! Here are a few items to add to your hunting list. I am patiently counting down the days until I get to start my garage sale sprees and flea market trips! Garden Tools Garden tools have so much wonderful character. Just the sight of them gets me excited for the blooming garden on the horizon. I love to bring these tools inside ...

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?
