A Shower for Baby Mirielle

 October has been a busy month at The Vintage House
for baby showers.  I LOVE the innovative way 
this banner was hung on the front porch of the house...
with the beautiful momma-to-be sitting on our swing!
 These guests painted pumpkins pink for additional decor 
to the front of the house...being the harvest time of year.
 This great space in the dining room has a mirrored wall and is 
decorated with a lovely sheer drape knotted softly.  It is a favorite area
 used for displaying food or drink for many guests of The Vintage House.
 You can't beat the vintage cabinet in our kitchen for displaying food and drinks...
the enamel table top pulls out for additional space.  The Vintage House
has several serving pieces to display your goodies...as shown here.
 The back porch of The Vintage House is a popular space 
to set up a craft area for the guests to make something for the new baby...
whether it is a painted onesie, decorating barretts, or headbands or
doing a scrapbook page for the new baby.
Additional tables can easily be set up in the living room 
to accommodate a sit down brunch or luncheon, as we 
did for these lovely ladies.

A "Sprinkle" for Baby #3

A beautiful fall day at The Vintage House...perfect for hosting a "Sprinkle" 
in celebration of a third "little pumpkin" coming into the world soon for one special momma!
I did not know what a "Sprinkle" was until I opened our house up as an event space. 
(as apposed to a full blown "Shower" for the first baby...in case you didn't know either)

The front porch is decorated for the fall season, with pumpkins here and there...
 The theme of the Sprinkle followed the fall season...
with the arrival of a new little pumpkin coming soon!
Little white pumpkins where nestled in a wooden bowl, with
bittersweet, and little pumpkin embellishments.
 The Vintage House has beautiful white vintage ironstone dishes which can be used
by any guest of the house... burlap pockets with added embellishments to
 keep with the fall decor were used to display the silverware.
 The repurposed potting table is a perfect surface to prepare
food, and then to display the delectables, buffet style.
 The Vintage House is the perfect place to celebrate 
anything in life, especially new little ones...
 The shabby chic green side table that is in the dining room is used 
frequently by guests for displaying desserts.  The Vintage House has 
a plethora of serving pieces for the guests of the house to use.
 There are plenty of places at The Vintage House to display a garland or two or three...
whether it be on the mantel of the faux fireplace, across one of the archways
that separate the three front rooms, just to name a couple...
 Some guests prefer hosting a sit-down type of event.  
We have additional tables that can be set up to accommodate 
additional seating for guests, upon request.
 Buffet style...so easy!
The shabby chic dining room table is always 
available for use at The Vintage House. 
 Special memories are always made at The Vintage House...
The memory of this special day for this beautiful momma will include receiving 
a hand made quilt created for baby #3 from her baby's great grandmother...
 The couch in the living room is the ideal spot for the guest of honor to sit 
and open presents where guests can see from any angle in the front rooms
of the house.

 The front porch swing is one of the most enjoyable seats at The Vintage House...
where you can sit and watch the world go by...as many have done throughout
the years, since 1906, when this vintage house was built.
To my dear two daughters...whom I LOVE sharing beautiful
times, and creating new memories with...looking forward to many more...
Love you...always and forever!

new special memories...at The Vintage House.

A Baby Shower for Two...(Two Mommies that is...)

A baby shower is typically for your first baby.  When you are on the second and the third baby, however, a second or third shower doesn't always happen.  This group of young mothers decided they would have a celebration for two of them who were on their 2nd & 3rd babies...and, why not? :) 

"Oh the Places You'll Go" is a wonderful Dr. Seuss story that was presented 
as gifts to the Momma's for their new little ones. 
Everyone wrote well-wish sentiments inside each of the books.
 The food was displayed in the kitchen using a selection of some of the serving pieces 
that are on hand at The Vintage House for use with any rental.
 
 The freshly painted back porch room of The Vintage House is perfect for doing crafts...
A creative station was set up so everyone could take a few minutes during the shower to make sweet little bow-barrettes for one of mommies who was having a baby girl.

Whether you have a friend, sister, or cousin who is having her 
first baby, second baby, or third...
The Vintage House is the perfect venue 
to gather & celebrate!!

A Lovely Baby Shower

These three girl's hosted a lovely baby shower @ The Vintage House 
for one of their dear friends who was having her first baby...
They chose to have additional tables set up to accommodate 
a sit-down dining experience for their guests, serving sweet and savory crepes...buffet style.
 The Vintage House does not really require much decorating for events 
that are hosted here...it is already very sweet and girly...
We do, however, encourage our guests to "make it their own" by adding their own special touches...this archway is the perfect spot to hang a personal banner that is specific to the event that is being held. 
 This vintage iron crib, which is part of the furnishings of the house, 
lends itself for a special place to display gifts for baby...

 Kalyn, one of the gals who hosted this baby shower, has her own business of creating beautiful invitations and stationary...Lilah Paper...and made these darling labels to add to the treats that were to go home with the guests.
 Our guests of The Vintage House are welcomed to use our treasure trove of
 lovely vintage ironstone dishes, serving ware, silverware, whatever is on hand to help create a 
beautiful, warm and charming experience... 
Needless to say...this momma-to-be was very pleased!

host your own event @ The Vintage House, 
please feel free to contact me...
If you would like to take a "peek" inside, 
I'd be happy to meet you there anytime!
