My colorful dining room and budget friendly kitchen are full of vintage charm. I thrifted a lot of these items including my formica dining table and vinyl chairs.

  4. Peggy Cockrum on September 4, 2023 at 7:11 pm

    I was a teen in the sixties and we had the mushroom canisters in addition to the chrome and Formica dining set. Wish I had a small set now.

  5. K Kar on September 4, 2023 at 7:14 pm

    My favorite is the rug in the dining room! But the jadeite and Pyrex are close seconds☺

  6. larajean1 on September 4, 2023 at 7:19 pm

    I think the pyrex is my favorite but I love your vintage hankie display too!

  7. STEP ON BEAT on September 4, 2023 at 7:21 pm

    Do you remember where the dish towel hanging on the oven’s handle came from? We can’t seem to find a match.

  8. Cheryl Slyter on September 4, 2023 at 7:22 pm

    So many things to love!! Thank you for sharing💛

  9. Megan W on September 4, 2023 at 7:24 pm

    I would have guessed your kitchen was older, reminds me of our 1930’s kitchen. I love white kitchens, they’re just so light and airy! The entire kitchen is adorable, if I had to pick a favorite it would be that green hutch with the pyrex and cows. I am really looking forward to seeing how you decorate it for Halloween!

  10. Emily Retro on September 4, 2023 at 7:27 pm

    What’s your favorite part of my dining room or kitchen?

  11. Jennie on September 4, 2023 at 7:27 pm

    Oh my gosh! I live in Hudsonville, I’m going to have to check out that thrift shop! ❤️❤️❤️

  12. Surajith Madhavan on September 4, 2023 at 7:28 pm

  13. Carol Sferra on September 4, 2023 at 7:28 pm

    Oh my…..I love it all!!!!!!

  14. KMOM on September 4, 2023 at 7:29 pm

    I love everything. You have such a good eye for detail. I especially love the chairs. My great grandmother had a similar set. Hers was a bit more on the avocado side though.😀

  15. Prohodaction on September 4, 2023 at 7:29 pm

    Yes, The 70s ~ the colors, the music and style! Great early childhood memories for me! Awesome kitchen.

  18. Christina Fox on September 4, 2023 at 7:31 pm

    I love the Orange Birds on the kitchen table! How’d you acquire those? Are you a Disney fan?

  19. Anne Elias on September 4, 2023 at 7:34 pm

    Love your dinning set, that green is amazing!

  20. Janie Porter on September 4, 2023 at 7:34 pm

    Girl!! I love everything!!! I had a bunch of those mushrooms from Sears and wish I never sold it!! I have alot of brown in my kitchen also and can’t decide if I want to paint it white. My dad built this house I’m living in now and still have the same counter stove and wall oven in 1964. Carpet floor in kitchen too! Copper hinges, knobs, and lighting. I love your colorful potholders cause I have short walls like that too! You have fabulous ways of using cookbooks of colors too! You’re such an inspiration to me!! ❤

  21. Dana Gilpatrick on September 4, 2023 at 7:34 pm

    I love all the color! I struggled to pick one favorite but I guess I would say the vintage rug, it’s such an amazing find.

  22. tlkcrafts on September 4, 2023 at 7:35 pm

    I love everything !! I especially love all the shelving and how you placed all your treasures! The background stories on how you got everything is also so interesting !! Love it ! 😊

  23. camping momlife on September 4, 2023 at 7:36 pm

  24. mendvalen03 on September 4, 2023 at 7:36 pm

    EVERYTHING IS BEAUTIFUL. THAT TABLE AND CHAIRS TO DIE FOR!

  25. micheleb4464 on September 4, 2023 at 7:36 pm

    Emily, I am so glad I stumbled onto your channel!!!! I just moved up to northern Indiana and when you spoke about shops in Michigan I was sold. Your kitchen is perfect. I love your style. It brings back so many memories of my great aunts, nanas, grandmas and moms homes!!! I love all the bright colors and how you put everything together. Magnificent!!!!

  26. Diane Williams on September 4, 2023 at 7:38 pm

    I really like your light fixture in your dining room and your collections bursting with color. I have a vintage dining set and the table has a design on it and the chairs have silverware-looking pieces on top of each chair. Love the vintage!

  27. mlspino on September 4, 2023 at 7:38 pm

    I like your kitchen…my only suggestion is you should switch how your frig opens up…seems awkward the way the door swings. Thanks for sharing.

  28. Mehri T on September 4, 2023 at 7:39 pm

    Absolutely everything so beautiful ilovet thanks for sharing.

  29. Petra vdBB on September 4, 2023 at 7:43 pm

    I love everything

  31. Nancy Snowden on September 4, 2023 at 7:46 pm

    That’s a very clever way to display your hankies! Love the colors you have brought in. The dining set is so cute and I love the rug. Thank you for sharing your home and your ideas.

  32. kaymedwa on September 4, 2023 at 7:46 pm

    Love ur ideas! It all works together beautifully. I’m inspired to find shelving and /or dressers for storage now

  33. Sergio Brunati on September 4, 2023 at 7:48 pm

    Everything looks awesome.

  34. Lourdes Rivera on September 4, 2023 at 7:50 pm

  35. Surajith Madhavan on September 4, 2023 at 7:50 pm

    I liked your dining table & chairs.

  36. Angella Herrmann on September 4, 2023 at 7:50 pm

    Emily, your home is precious and so cheerful! I had the same mushroom 🍄 canister set , plus all of the other mushroom accessories that came with that canister set. They were sold at Sears in 70’s and I just loved them. My curtains, rugs, and napkins were green and they were called Priscilla curtains. They had ruffles with matching tie backs and I added white sheer panels in my windows. I think the kitchen colors were avocado green and harvest gold. We had wood floors all through our home except for our bathrooms which were ceramic tiles on the walls and floors. Seeing all of your vintage antique pieces is just so much fun to reflect on and remember my own first home. I don’t have the mushroom accessories anymore, I gave them to a dear friend that still uses them. I have a few pieces that I just couldn’t part with. I’m new to your channel and I’m so happy that I ran across your sweet happy place! I just love everything but mostly I’m enjoying seeing a young happy wife with just the cutest home ever ! I’m 65 and to see someone so young interested in decorating how I did when I started out just thrills my heart! Thank you for sharing your sweet life with us!

  37. Kelly Cooper on September 4, 2023 at 7:52 pm

    ❤❤❤ everything

  38. Di Pi on September 4, 2023 at 7:53 pm

    Emily, don’t make me choose. I love it all and it brings back childhood memories of the 60’s. We lived in a ranch style house and my mom painted her kitchen cabinets a soft pink and eventually my dad painted them cream. Thanks for the tour. 💜

  39. Eana LaFont on September 4, 2023 at 7:56 pm

    What are dimensions of your table? I have one like it but want a new top made to change dimensions. Thanks!

  40. Donna Lindsey on September 4, 2023 at 7:57 pm

    😍😊

  41. j riggsreeves on September 4, 2023 at 7:57 pm

    Hi Emily, I love it all….the shades of white kitchen and bright vintage decor , the bright and cheerful dining room, all of it! Especially the Pyrex and the dining set….oh, and the flowered bowls and salt/pepper shakers. I love vintage and happy colors!

  42. Shawn Jackson on September 4, 2023 at 8:00 pm

    Those canisters were I my aunt’s yellow kitchen growing 💕
