I have to tell you the truth, this has been a busy week.
With announcing my opening Common Ground
to stocking my Etsy Shop with Valentine Pendants,
My little pea brain has been in a whirlwind...
So when I saw this feature in the February issue of
Martha Stewart Living
I knew I had to share it with you.
I totally fell in love with these images of vintage jewelry hearts (in a heart)
"Charmed, I'm sure..."
When I was young we all had a charm bracelet that told our stories.
Oh how I'd love to find a stash of these now!
Bring back memories?
So let's see what was happening last week...
Holly at Down to Earth Style has redone her mantle for winter
with a nature inspired theme. Love the window screen and sign.
Barbara Jean from Treasures from the Heart has found the sweetest spot
for a little nest...her coin purse!
If you want to have your socks knocked off then
be sure and check out the house reno at Classic Casual Home
Dana over at Circa Dee found a new toy this Christmas
check out using it to make some great vintage look signs.
Linda from It All Started with Paint shows off some of her
mad crafting and painting skills in her wonderful Entry.
AND,You all know how much I love me some sheep,
well, go check out the funny story about painting these adorable guys
over at Pumpkin Pie Painter, really a cute post!
New Year and some new things happening here. I switched to the format of requiring a "link back" to my blog in your VIF party posts. I know it takes a few minutes to do this, but I join lots of parties too, so I have to do it as well. Besides, it's only right that if we link to a party that we give the hostess a nod for joining in. So please be sure there is a link back in your post, otherwise you won't be able to link up. (insert smiley and happy face)
Love you guys bunches, thanks so much for partying over here. I may not get to leave a comment on every blog, but I do try to drop by. Thanks for making Vintage Inspiration such a success!
And remember, you have until Saturday Night January 14
to enter the Shabby Apple Earring GiveAway.
xoxo,
joining in for these parties:

I have my charm bracelet from my youth - it has several hearts on it including 5 tiny hearts that spell out my name which was a gift from my father one Valentine's Day in the 1950s. Thanks for hosting one of my favorite parties. Sally
ReplyDeleteI think anyone who hosts a party each week definitely deserves to have her blog acknowledged. I try to always do that, although a few times I've forgotten. Re: charm bracelets, I still have mines from the 60s, no hearts but great charms from many places around the US that I visited. Thanks for hostessing the party, I linked about something I copied from my Pinterest boards. Hugs ~ Mary
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for hosting! Happy New Year!
ReplyDeleteI love the Martha's heart collage, and esp. the charm braclets. Thanks for hosting the party. I love your banner. Kathy
ReplyDeleteHi Debra, You are such a gracious host. Love the parties and viewing the links, Kathy
