Vintage homes weren't as aesthetic or matchy matchy as now a days. If we fill our home with 2nd hand market finds and handed down items we instantly get a vintage homey feel

Now that I'm middle-aged, as much as possible, I'm wanting to live a slower pace of life. The astethitic I'm wanting for my apartment is Cottage core/grandma core/vintage. To achieve this, I've been using things I already have on hand and pieces I find when thrifting. I do love to thrift. Thrift stores are one of my happy places and I'm loving turning my apartment into an oasis of simplicity and calmness. Where I can sit and crochet and destress and relax at the end of a long day.

I have a 1910 house in Nebraska USA, I LOVE this old house . My kitchen is vintage red and white decor, crocheted red and white vintage pot holders line the walls, my dining room has the waterfall buffet and other vintage pieces . I absolutely love the 40s . When I get it finished hopefully when people come in, they suddenly step back to the 40s, it's a work in progress . Love your videos

So true. You don't need oodles of money to achieve vintage. In a couple of days I'm picking up old Axminster carpet that's in mint condition. I can't believe my luck. This stuff sells for hundreds for a small mat. Im getting nearly 32m² for $200. Whoop whoop! I'll have such pretty, large rugs for my 1850s farmhouse ☺️

I love thrifting decor! I also decorate with items that belonged to my late grandparents because the items remind me of them. I also have my late aunt's oil painting of dogwood flowers above my fire place. I have lots of things made by my paternal grandmother because she was a quilter and very accomplished dressmaker. I don't have as many things that belonged to my maternal grandmother, but I search for Pennsylvania Dutch decor items at thrift stores because her ancestors were Pennsylvania Dutch and those items connect me to her.

First tip is really good. I live in a 388 sq ft studio with my fiance. Space is TIGHT. I have a couple knick knacks and hand made doilies on my bedside table that I thrifted. It makes me so happy when I look at them and gave it such a "homey" feel. Its not a lot but it brightens such a tight space.

Plus, vintage furniture and clothing were usually made to last, whereas a lot of today's goods are made to last maybe a season - so you're more apt to buy the next season's offerings.

I love your enthusiasm and your style of presentation and I've just subscribed to your channel. I'm 81 and get very nostalgic for the 'old days', though admittedly not all of them were good. I like to look in antique centres and charity shops for old stuff like my parents had when I was growing up.

[ashlingsmith]

Such great ideas! My husband always teases me over my "leisurely breakfast" as I always make time to enjoy my tea and toast every morning, haha!

[Didomum]

Thanks for the fire place tip I have a non working fire place and haven't used it for years but every year I think of getting it repaired but the cost and mess puts me off. Im trying to find ways to hid all the modern doodads we have in our life it's like a get away for me someplace to forget all the drama of the real world just for a night or two.

[fionaludbrook]

Oh Hannah, your advice is fabulous. You are quite an inspiration!

[SylviaLaidlow-Petersen]

Your dear cat was playing on the bed at the end but when you left the room, he stopped and looked in your direction!

[practicalspirit]

Sending love and solidarity from a similarly curated home FULL of thrifted vintage objects that are, according to your countryman William Morris, both "useful" and "beautiful!" LOVE your channel!

[brandipiecora]

I am a fan of US ghosts so I watched the BBC one too and I was shocked at how real the sets were compared to the US version. Actually the US version is probably sets and the UK one seemed to be filmed in an authentic old run down home. It’s great ! The UK version has a lot more yelling just fair warning to us noise sensitive 😅

[cindimams]

OK this is the best and most inspiring and realistic vintage home channel I’ve ever watched. Thank you ❤

[aceofspades]

Great tips but I urge people to not be afraid of mixing different woods when selecting furniture. Unless you're going for a certain look that is. Or maybe I just like my house looking like an eccentric wizard cottage lol

[mmthomas]

I love fine china - or any china really. I was at a church tea in Georgia where each 8 seater table was was set by different ladies using their own china and linens. So much of it was their grandmother's china that almost never got used. Why not use it more often? I find joy in using something beautiful every day even if it is just a pretty silver spoon to stir my morning coffee.

[VeraRoseMcCarthy]

I absolutely love you … I’m so happy that I happened on your video!!! I love the the old days I often think about it myself and watch every program I can find! Just love you!!!!🥰

[Dollith]

I had never heard of the ethanol box thing before, so that was neat! I also like the lady who made the tiny pond in her garden. I will definitely try both of these someday!

I have so much more space since I threw out my large upholstered three piece suit, and replaced it with a couple of high backed Ercol Windsor chairs. I bought 2 tatty chairs from Ebay and a local secondhand shop. Then replaced the seat rubber straps. Will eventually get around to replacing the cushions. I find them much better to sit on, now that I am getting older.
