Spring Target Finds

February 16, 2022 by thevettelfarm

February can be quite blustery in North Dakota, so the thought of Spring is a bright light in the depths of winter. I am loving some of the sweet, new Spring decor items from Target recently. I rounded up a few of my favorites. Several are great staple decor pieces, several are great Easter decor pieces, and they are all guaranteed to get you in the mood for Spring! I will be sprinkling in little bits of Spring over the next few weeks, these will all be great additions to my springtime decor. Click the photo to shop! And if you are lucky enough to live near a Target (mine is 2 hours away) then run on over to the dollar spot to find these adorable topiaries and wooden bunnies ...

Target Valentine’s Day Finds

January 8, 2022 by thevettelfarm

ONE | TWO | THREE | FOUR | FIVE | SIX | SEVEN 1. Can you ever have too many Valentine's Day pillows? This one is super cute because of the knit detail on each heart. It is the perfect blend of winter cozy and Valentine's Day. 2. I am styling a fun Valentine's Day bar cart this year and this pom-pom garland will be just what it needs to sparkle. This would be a great addition to a mantle or your favorite hutch too. 3. Obsessed is the appropriate world for these cutie felt characters. There are several different varieties, avocado and toast, bacon and eggs, all perfect pairs with each other. I am going to use these to decorate the girls' bedroom this year. 4. A new doormat is always ...

There’s just something about an all-American state There’s just something about an all-American state fair… 🇺🇸🎡 The glow of carnival lights, striped awnings fluttering in the summer breeze, pie tins cooling beside blue ribbon quilts, and vintage treasures that feel stitched into the story of summer itself.

Don’t miss the @weatheredwhitebarn Summer sign sale this Friday, May 15th at 9am MST on her website! A portion of the profits will go to the Wounded Warrior Project! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

This little collection feels like a walk through the fairgrounds at golden hour, where every corner smells like lemonade and kettle corn, every song sounds a little nostalgic, and every piece carries that timeless red, white, and blue magic.✨✨

Vintage Americana will always feel like home to me. ❤️🤍💙

Maybe it’s the years of thrifting and collecting, Maybe it’s the years of thrifting and collecting, but I can’t look at the simplest objects without imagining what they could become. This little terracotta saucer started as an ordinary garden piece and ended as a cloche that feels like it belongs in an old weathered greenhouse. ✨

I love projects like this because they remind me that beauty doesn’t always have to be expensive or complicated. Sometimes it’s just seeing ordinary things in a different lens. ✨

Motherhood has been one of the most rewarding acco Motherhood has been one of the most rewarding accomplishments of my life… sticky hands wrapped around mine, the car rides, muddy boots by the door, and laughter echoing through our home long after the day is done.

My children are the reason ordinary days became the sweetest memories. They’ve filled my life with purpose and a kind of love that changes you forever.

Someday, I hope they remember the way home felt, warm cookies cooling on the counter, holiday magic, vintage treasures scattered about, and a Mom who loved them with her whole heart.

Being your mom is my favorite story I’ll ever tell. 🤍

Happy Mother’s Day to the women preserving memories, creating magic from ordinary moments, and loving deeply through every season. ❤️🍀🐣🇺🇸🎃🦃🎄

Soft whites, gathered lavender, weathered details, Soft whites, gathered lavender, weathered details, and vintage pieces that feel like they’ve lived a hundred beautiful summers before finding their way here. This collection was inspired by slow garden mornings (which start very soon here for us in North Dakota). 🪻

This morning’s Etsy restock is filled with handpicked treasures ready for a new home and a new story. McCoy pottery, ironstone, garden decor, it’s all here! 

The garden gates are open… and every piece is waiting for someone who loves a little vintage romance as much as I do.

Unfortunate UPDATE - it did in fact work for ten m Unfortunate UPDATE - it did in fact work for ten minutes but then proceeded to play static over the movie 🫩 BUT per my research, the tape heads inside are dirty and I need to run a VHS cleaning tape through the TV. So two different cleaning VHS tapes will be arriving on Thursday and I will have an update for you, hopefully a good one so we can watch more Fried Green Tomatoes! 🍅

And before you ask, I did in fact use the tracking buttons to try and fix it, I surprisingly remembered how to do that, but it didn’t work. 🫠
