I absolutely love this series of you sharing your wonderful magazines. Thank you so much for showing us this fascinating glimpse into the past with us.
Thanks for keeping me company while I ate my lunch today. I thoroughly enjoy looking through the old magazines with you and find your comments both interesting and informative. The only thing I found lacking was your opinion on the orange-coconut ice cream. You and your guest seemed to be enjoying it but it left me curious as to the taste and whether you felt it was worth the effort. I'm also wondering about the identity of your guest!
When I was a baby, I had a bassinet in the back of our 55 Buick, car was older than me, just to be clear. it had lap seat belts but wasn't until Late 60's that we had shoulder straps in cars and when my baby sister was born in early 70's they finally had what you would recognize as a real baby car seat - so crazy to you, but not nearly as ancient a practice as you might think! Great Fun going with you on these old magazine trips!
Car seats for kids until 80s were about restraining the kid and not about safety! I was born in the twilight of the 70s and my car seat at 3 was merely a foam safety bar with no actual restraint. My sisters infant car seat buckled into car, but had no straps to hold child IN. My moms mother was a new driver and had my mother in backseat bassinet when she had minor fender bender and mom was chucked onto floor. She never drove after that!
3:30 I would also entertain the idea the colour change, maybe the yellow didn't last on acid paper or the background darkened until people seeing it judge it as blue as opposed to the historic assessments
This is lovely and I love that you're doing this, thank you! That said, I kind of preferred the first video: we got a more in-depth look at one magazine. (This is meant as constructive criticism; I'm assuming you want feedback from your viewers.) :) I don't know what your long-term plans are for the channel, but if you wanted to show us fewer magazines each month (but a more in-depth look at each), and save some for next year, I wouldn't be upset about it, lol. Tangentially related, I had an extensive collection of vintage magazines that got ruined when a freak tornado hit my home. Seeing you page through these antiques is bittersweet, because mine will never get to be antiques. :( I genuinely enjoy getting to see these; thank you again for sharing them with us.
Have you read the novel "Au bonheur des dames" (sorry, I don't know the english translation) from Emile Zola?It's about a parisian departement store,one of my favorite books,the story from your magazine is the appetizer for these novel. Thank you for your enthusiastic sharing!( And forgive my awkward english.....I'm a french subscriber!)
I love going through these magazines online. But then have them in my hands would be marvelous!!! We laugh at some things from those times gone by....but there are nuggets of wisdom that we've forgotten, too.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️. I totally enjoyed this video! Fascinating to see the fashions. I’d love it if you kept the images on screen while you discuss them. Thank you for a delightful visit. 👍☺️❤️
Those floral cushions right at the end make me so happy lol. My GGG Aunt Mabel passed down one she did and I ended up with it. It's in bad repair but looks very similar. Her version has butterflies, flowers and bands of insertion crochet lace I think? that run between all the squares. The poor thing is falling apart but I love it so much. I'm thinking it will go into a frame at some point so everyone can see it
I really enjoy going through your magazines with you. It’s really lovely that you share your collection with us! I hope that you will continue this series through all your collection.
I'm really enjoying this series! I like seeing you try out things from the magazine, whether it's a recipe or a craft project. The coconut ices looked so cute and refreshing - I want to try them!
I love reading these magazines with you and hearing your thoughts about them! I would definitely be here for more :) Thanks for inspiring all of us to get crafty and make new things! You helped me take a deep dive into antique lacemaking a few months ago, and I am so enthralled with it.
i loved this!! perfect to watch while i sew. the last two segments where you made little projects from the magazines was precious!! excited to see what next month holds :)
9:37 what do they mean when they say "sent"? Is it that people sent something in the mail, and they wanted it published in this magazine so the person receiving it could find out that way, or did the magazine send them gifts for writing to them, or did they buy something from the magazine and include a note such as "I'm buying this for my cousin who I want to marry"?
What sources do you use to obtain the bound magazines? Local antique shops? Ebay? Etsy? BTW, crochet collars came back into fashion in the 1980s along with shoulder pads. If you need patterns for them, you might be able to find the newer patterns based on the antique ones. Back then I loaned my patterns to someone at work, but she quit, and I never saw them again! I was so upset. It was in the days before reliable and easy copy machines, so I didn't have any copies of them.
I was lucky enough to find bound magazines in a weird second hand bookshop in my city so I would recommend looking at second hand bookshops and book fairs
Oh no... please don't try the jello phase recipes. They all end up horribly and NOT worth it, even for a video. 15:45 Omg that looks SOOO cool. Would love to see it tested because it sounds like it would work

So glad my podcast interview was helpful! (Yes, I am Sophia Beaumont. I work under 2 names).
I love the pillows!
It makes me really happy that you plan to continue these monthly readings. I enjoy them very much!

“A Morning at Stewart’s” is one of my favorite Godey articles!
What a fun idea! I love collecting old crochet magazines! Really enjoy your love of older things!❤️
In 1925, there was another Exposition in Paris. This is where the term "Art Deco" comes from.
Have you read the novel "Au bonheur des dames" (sorry, I don't know the english translation) from Emile Zola?It's about a parisian departement store,one of my favorite books,the story from your magazine is the appetizer for these novel.

Your English is lovely! I just wish I could speak French as well 🙂.
@@aksez2u thank you!the secret to improve is watching a lot of inspiring you tube videos......
If the first book is titled "Gram's Magazines", it could have been someone's grandmother's collection of magazines.
or it could've belonged to a woman with the surname Graham
I love going through these magazines online. But then have them in my hands would be marvelous!!! We laugh at some things from those times gone by....but there are nuggets of wisdom that we've forgotten, too.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️. I totally enjoyed this video! Fascinating to see the fashions. I’d love it if you kept the images on screen while you discuss them. Thank you for a delightful visit. 👍☺️❤️
Fascinating just loved the crochet beaded chatelaine pattern💕
Wouldn't it be wonderful to be able to visit one of those old department stores?! I love your magazine series.

I love watching you flip through the magazine/books
That would be a cool service to offer today. Have your magazines made into a book! I'm enjoying this series tfs.
Fabulous content. I certainly love these videos 💕
Loved the woanderful magazines too. Another great video, Thanks.

I'm really enjoying this series! I like seeing you try out things from the magazine, whether it's a recipe or a craft project. The coconut ices looked so cute and refreshing - I want to try them!
I LOVE this series 😍it's just so fascinating how everything was done back then. Thank you for another awesome episode 😊 xx
I just love your videos! They make my days after work feel a lot less stressful
I mean, based on my genealogy, gone with the wind… etc clearly the regular reminders to QUIT MARRYING YOUR COUSINS was needed!

I love this series. I’ve been looking online to get my own copies of these magazines but here in the uk they are super expensive and rare.
Loved this video! Also love when you try out the different things in the magazines, it really motivates me to find my own vintage magazines!
I love your videos. Thanks for putting yourself out there.
i loved this!! perfect to watch while i sew. the last two segments where you made little projects from the magazines was precious!! excited to see what next month holds :)
This series is so fun!
This series has got to be one of my new favourite things. Also, I love your jumper in the latter part of the video! Is it a vintage pattern?
This was so enjoyable.. thanks!
I love these videos! How were the orange cups? Looked pretty yummy!

What is in the Modern Lace Making section?
Oh no... please don't try the jello phase recipes. They all end up horribly and NOT worth it, even for a video.
15:45 Omg that looks SOOO cool. Would love to see it tested because it sounds like it would work
LOL - I couldn't believe it when she said she was going to try the "gelatinized tomato salad". It sounded disgusting 😂.
