Plaid on Plaid on Plaid Christmas Bedroom

December 20, 2022 by thevettelfarm

For some reason I always envision that my Christmas bedroom needs to mimic Kevin McCallister's parents bedroom. I love the deep red and green tones, the plaid and the stunning wallpaper. This year, I believe our bedroom gives that same cozy feeling, with more a more modern feel. Don't worry, there are lots of vintage elements sprinkled throughout too. Plaid This bedspread was a huge inspiration for this bedroom, it had all of the perfect colors for my room. It included the deep greens and the soft blues that coordinate with our Sea Salt (SW) walls. The bedspread also has a soft, cozy furry side too, which will be perfect all winter long. A winter bedroom is not complete until you have ...

Kid’s Halloween Bedroom

October 15, 2021 by thevettelfarm

We ALWAYS use the "if you clean your room, you can decorate" tactic at The Vettel Farm. Most times it's a great excuse to deep clean the girls' bedroom so that we can sprinkle in some holiday fun. This year we tried to stick to a Hocus Pocus theme, all inspired by this fun barn wood sign we purchased. One of my favorite elements of this cute shelving unit is the vintage style die cuts we added. This witch is so cute and it even tells you your fortune. Vintage Halloween die cuts can be very expensive, but this one is such a reasonable price! Each of the girls has a jewelry box that they keep all of their treasures in too. This vintage blow mold was a recent garage sale find and ...

Let’s make a JAM-o-rita! 🍓 Every few weeks I Let’s make a JAM-o-rita! 🍓 Every few weeks I get to enjoy my favorite type of margarita, one made with the remaining jam at the bottom of the jar. 

Jam-o-Rita
Add ice to your jam jar. Shoot for 1 T. of remaining jam in the jar. Add in 1 shot of tequila, lime juice and a few splashes of margarita mix of sparkling water. Shake! I like to rim the jar after this step with lime juice and salt. Enjoy! 🍋‍🟩

P.S. Any type of jam will work!

I collect yardsticks for two reasons: 1) To create I collect yardsticks for two reasons: 1) To create these STARS! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ and 2) I have a hope that someday I will be able to fill the risers of my basement stairway with them, probably in 20 years or so! 😆 

If you don’t have yardsticks, the vintage folding rulers work great for stars too! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Gardening can be SO MUCH WORK in the beginning bu Gardening can be  SO MUCH WORK in the beginning but it is truly worth the work in the end. Every year we plant A LOT of pumpkins to use in all our fall decorations. We plant them from seed and transplant to the garden. I can’t wait to see all of them this fall. 

Fall is 117 days away, but who’s counting! 🙋🏻‍♀️

Done and Done! You don’t have to tell me twice. Done and Done! You don’t have to tell me twice.  I have never felt bad for buying more vintage. 

💚 It reduces waste. Just think you are keeping those items out of landfills.

💚 One of a kind style, that is often made with high quality materials. Vintage lasts a lifetime. 

💚 Vintage can be cost effective (besides a few crazy thrift stores) and can sometimes have investment potential. I often believe this of my jadeite collection, many values have almost tripled. 

💚 Vintage pieces have history! They each tell a story and carry charm with them. 

Have I convinced you yet? Isn’t that jingle catchy!

Riding my bike in the summer growing up was the ul Riding my bike in the summer growing up was the ultimate freedom. We would ride to our friend’s houses, to the lake, and everywhere in between. 🚲 It’s the essence of summer fun! 

Each year I like to add a few decor pieces to vintage bikes to display around our farm. They bring me back to those childhood days of freedom. From flowers to patriotic decor, they each add a decorative flair to welcome summer. ❤️🚲❤️
