Welcome to Vintage Charm Party #331 and the March Feature of the Month!
Happy Monday, Friends! Most of my kitchen decor is pretty consistent year round, but I do like to add a few seasonal accents here and there. As promised, today I'm sharing spring and Easter decor from my vintage kitchen...
Thank God it's thrifty Friday, Friends! After years of coveting the beautiful plants, flowers, and other goodies that I've seen blogger friends score from Trader Joe's, I finally made the 65 mile trip to the one nearest me...
If you shop regularly at Trader Joe's, please humor my newbie obsession! Every time I visit Colorado, Dear Firstborn treats me to their favorite foods from their local Trader Joe's. For Christmas, she and EL gave me a TJ gift card, hence my recent haul! I started in the floral department and brought home several bunches of fragrant eucalyptus and chamomile. I also stocked up on these amazing grapefruit candles--they're made with coconut-soy wax and smell ah-mazing! The bouquets and candles were all $3.99 each--better prices than I can find locally!
I am a fan of sweet and sparkling wines which were also very reasonable.
Dear Firstborn gave me some lavender scrub for my birthday. I liked it so much that I bought some more and also decided to try a few of their other bath and body products.
This dish soap smells great! I've used avocado oil spray before so I look forward to trying theirs.
Stay tuned for the second half of my haul next week! Until then, happy hunting!

Welcome to Vintage Charm Party #329!
Happy Monday, Friends! It's finally spring and I'm delighted to join the Bloggers' Best Spring Home Tour! You'll see lovely home inspiration from several different bloggers every day this week. Join me today as I share my vintage favorites gathered from my thrifted collections.
If you hopped over after visiting our sweet host Kelly from the Tattered Pew, welcome! I always enjoy seeing her beautiful home! Have you noticed that many decor styles tend to overlap these days? Instead of being defined by a specific label, I tend to decorate with what I love, allowing my home to tell my story.
Having said that, I have come to realize that most of my decor embraces the cottagecore aesthetic. The trend has been used to describe everything from clothing and decor to lifestyle choices. I've heard it referred to as "romanticized rural living" and "the feminine cousin of farmhouse decor"--these descriptions definitely tick my boxes!
I also love that cottagecore combines floral accents, handmade decor, vintage dishes, and timeworn textures. I'll be sharing more spring accents from my kitchen in a few weeks. In the meantime, you can find the tutorial for my botanical spritzer can upcycle, here and look here to find my rustic flowerpot wreath!
As we head to the dining room, I never tire of my vintage transferware plate wall. This mostly thrifted collection has been gathered over time.
I named this handsome fellow, Leonardo.
Find this floral cross upcycle here!
I had so much fun styling this "garden thyme" spring mantel and gallery wall--best of all, I gathered everything from my home and garden!
It was inspired by a pair of $5 statuary that I scored at an estate sale several years ago. I call them Eve...
...and Adam.
The whimsical decor brings a smile to my face each time I pass by!
Do you like the scent of hyacinths or do you find them cloying? I enjoy them in a larger space, but the sweet fragrance might be overwhelming in the bedroom.
You'll notice plenty of bunnies and blooms in my spring decor.
Here's a closer peek inside my china cabinet.
I found these cute burlap bags of bulbs several years ago on clearance. Since then, I use them for seasonal blooming bulbs.
Thanks so much for dropping by today!
You're in for a treat--next on the tour is Stacy from Bricks 'N Blooms! Remember to visit the rest of my friends to find spring home inspiration each day this week!
