Vintage Kitchen Tour | Emily Vallely's Vintage Apartment
Vintage Kitchen Tour | Emily Vallely's Vintage Apartment
In this video I share my 1930’s vintage kitchen and everything inside of it. Although my apartment was built in 1937 I mix a lot of different eras and styles when decorating. A lot of the decor in my kitchen is from the 1950’s, 60’s, and 70’s. Most of what I have has been accumulated from estate sales, antique stores, thrift stores, and flea markets. Comment down below your favorite thing in my kitchen and tag me in your vintage kitchen photos on Instagram!

I grew up in a building that was an old school and then was converted into apartments in 1929. My kitchen and bathroom had a lot of original stuff. I wondered about the history of it. I wrote an article about it on another site called Quora. The story is actually about how I left a time capsule of sorts, inside the wall as a kid and how it’s probably still there today. I go into great detail about what was in the apartment and what it looked like. You should check it out. I think you’d enjoy it. It does include pictures. I lived here with my family as a kid, and we kind of tried to decorate it in a period appropriate way. We had 1920’s and 30’s era medicine bottles in the bathroom on top of the medicine cabinet, that bottles just like that were actually kept inside of and used by the people who lived there back in the day. We kept antique kitchen tools and copper baking molds on the walls in the kitchen. https://www.quora.com/What-is-the-strangest-thing-youve-found-inside-of-a-wall-in-a-home/answer/Melissa-Drift?__nsrc__=4&__snid3__=15861766696&fbclid=IwAR1Eou7BR3COxhJ2wPAG5AAhgTeSUUvcgQ2sdvLsOom514ChKZmKwNG6dyg

I Love Pollys Pie in LB.
Just found this video, your kitchen is so lovely. I love it when people have great imaginations when decorating their homes. Our home is an eclectic mix, which we’ve put a lot of time and attention into. I’ve subscribed now so I can enjoy your other videos…best wishes from the U.K 😀
ADORABLE
I love your kitchen is so cute. Have you seen Mad Girls Vintage here on YouTube? Her house reminds me of yours. I would love to see the bathroom.
I think I love 20s/30s/40s homes better than 60s and 70s homes. There was a straight up space age inspired home that was for sale near me that was really cool. But I just love the homey cute vibe of the older homes. We live in a 1935 home.
Love your decor I have a spring blossom covered casserole and I love it
Your kitchen is adoreable.
The whole house. Love your style.
Love the tablecloth curtains!
best retro kitchen by far on utube. just beautiful, visually interesting, & well put together, not too much stuff crammed in like some people tend to do so their home looks like another thrift shop! lol. i noticed this is an old video & sought out more…love your other home videos also.
Omg…I love your kitchen. I’m so glad i found your channel. I love vintage eclectic mid century things. You display everything so nice. One of the reasons I like this decor is because its happy and tells stories. Ordinary homes are too plain. I like your ideas. How nice you share this talent with your mom. How long have you been a collector? 🍍🍒
Hi! I just subscribed….. I love all the vintage! That picture of the US map with the flowers…. that’s painted? My mom and I had embroidered that exact same map many years ago!
Brand new subscriber. You have some amazing decor pieces. Those little deers stole my heart. I just love everything. What a treat to watch.. thank you for sharing.
Emily you have an old soul I love your apartment 💜🇦🇺
Love it!! Growing up in the 80’s my mom had a "no matter where I serve my guests" signs. Thanks for the trip down memory lane :).
Currently I have the high bid on an online auction on that exact same kitchen cart that your microwave is on!!! I’m looking for that same breadbox, it matches my canisters!! 😩
So many cool vintage pieces!! Quite a few I recognize from my childhood…thanks for the tour
Enjoyed everything, would love a house tour.
Background music? 💛
I love that you have items from different eras. Also love the vintage napkins as Curtains! Would love to see your living room.
Beautiful job!
CUTE!!!! Oh my goodness, I love it so much! Your kitchen is beautiful <3
Those built ins are to die for! And the atomic star light omg 😭💕
I love everything! It’s so different than what we are used to seeing! I love it & so want to pull off this style.. my house was built in the early 1900s.. I’m starting small in my laundry room, it’s going to be a fun project!
I still have a spice rack just like yours! It’s so refreshing to see a young person who values things of the past! It’s possible that the purple colors in your flower calendar just faded over time. I am an artist and some colors are called "fugitive" because they do not last.
Umm excuse me I am very surprised that this doesn’t have more likes! Absolutely incredible decor and your videos are inspiring me SO much!!!! Thanks for sharing!!
love all the cool vintage things you have! I feel like this is what my house would look like if I was a female teen vampire and kept all the cute stuff I owned throughout the decades 😂 mann… I need to go antique shopping
Love your style and how you use all your different collections side by side. Just found your channel.so now I have some binge watching to do. I would love to see you living room and bedroom. I am sure both are filled with vintage treasures
Since filming this video I have made a number of apartment tour videos sharing details of each room. Here is the link to that playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLQrREIKFaWKen1IkR9sV_8rk641TKgi6c
Thanks so much for watching and subscribing!
Adorable look
Your kitchen is so happy I enjoyed seeing things I grew up with. One question where did you get the towel hanging that has the Pyrex on it?
Oh, your home is so adorable!! This is from a a seasoned Grandma just realizing my true love is mid century modern!
I’ve been surrounded by primitive antiques my whole life and while I admire and respect that time period, I do love the vintage table cloths of the 40’s and 50’s and the all the vintage fabrics, especially from the 60’s and 70’s!
I should have know-my favorite furniture when I was a teen was danish modern.
Live and learn! So glad you have found your knish and are so happy!! It all beautiful!
I would love to see your living room and bedroom space!
Ps. I collect the crazy daisy Pyrex pattern as well!!
Thought you might like to see my retro appliances!

Lovely video I collect pyrex it’s all over my home
I’m so happy that I found your channel today! I love your apartment! It’s gorgeous!
Love this! Emily, just found your YT Channel today! Looking forward to catching up on your videos! Also, I so agree with your business moto!!! xo~ Dena
Love this! You look like a young Alanis Morrisette
Over 10 years ago I passed up a vintage cross stitch that said "No one ever died of oven crud poisoning" and I’m STILL mad at myself for it 😂
Omgg luvvv it!!! Living room!!
Favorite time period in terms of decor would be the ’50s, but I’m pretty flexible as well since I have replica 17th century paintings to vinyl records from the early ’80s.
What is your friend Ashley’s Instagram that inspired your kitchen window topper? I couldn’t quite understand what you said her Instagram was.
I’m binge watching your vids Emily as I just found you today. Your kitchen transports me to a another time ..I love the 20s, 30s and 40s…just soaking the lovely vintage vibes 😊
I watched this video yesterday morning, then later went to an antique mall. I found an accordion style recipe holder that had the saying on it “No matter where I serve my guests, it seems they like my kitchen best.” But like you, I have a small kitchen. Not all of us can hang out in there when we have have a gathering. I got the recipe holder. It’s tattered and worn with a great graphic on it. I don’t know what year it’s from, but it’ll now be displayed in my small kitchen. 🧡
the format and editing of this video is so clean and professional. i love it!
Pinterest Worthy!!!!!!!!!!! <3
You’re such a natural beauty!
Question: does it take u a long time to clean everything? I don’t have that many things and it takes me a while to clean stuff especially in the kitchen cz everything gets greasy fast
Super cute!
I’m shamelessly copying your tablecloth window treatment! 🤫😬🤭 How crazy cute and unique is that idea! 😱 And I’d love to see your living room next. 🥰 I’m sure I won’t be disappointed. Great video!! ❤️
