Saturday Morning Gather is my weekly newsletter where I share what’s going on at Vintage Home and also share inspiration and things I have found during the week that I think you might enjoy.

If you’ve been around a while, as always, I am so grateful to you! I truly appreciate you showing up and continuing to support my blog.

Gather round and grab your coffee or favorite morning drink of choice and let’s take a look at what’s been happening this week.

In honor of the upcoming Memorial Day holiday, I thought I would share some red, white and blue decor and patriotic inspiration I found that you might enjoy.

Unfortunately, I got a little behind with the blog because of the barn sale last week.

But, I wanted to share a red, white and blue tablescape I created a couple of years ago in case you are looking for some patriotic table inspiration.

    Michele, can you share a rough estimate of measurement on your open face hutch. I am looking for a wall unit and love the amount of room you have for your collectibles. I would be embarrassed if I had to admit how many times I have watched your videos. Absolutely love all you do.

      Good luck finding a hutch!!
