Vintage Inspired Spice Drawer

January 13, 2022 by thevettelfarm

The New Year is that special time when we all have the urge to ORGANIZE, or at least I do! Each year I break down areas in our house and tackle small spaces with quick organizational projects. A few years ago I took on this spice drawer and I can not tell you how happy it makes me feel every time I open that drawer. I can easily see every spice and the jar labeling I used is so darn cute. Now I know that everything in our house can not be vintage, but if I can incorporate some vintage inspired style I am going to try. These mini Ball canning spice jars are so adorable and the perfect size for all your spices. I love the look of the embossed labels too. The Dymo label maker uses all ...

Pantry Organization Tips

January 4, 2022 by thevettelfarm

Our pantry is really the heart of our kitchen. We have a tiny kitchen, so having an organized pantry is essential! It seems like after the holidays our pantry is quite used and abused, so a reset in January is always a must. Here are a few of my favorite tips to keep your pantry organized, while also adding in some fun, funky vintage flair! 1. Invest in quality storage containers I can not tell you how helpful these containers are to keep a tidy pantry. They are an initial investment, but they truly do last a lifetime. I am partial to the OXO brand to keep everything fresh with their lock top.I linked up my favorite styles and sizes at the bottom of this blog post. 2. Label in ...

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? 🫣🫣🫣
