Living in a small apartment, I can appreciate the challenges that it presents. Mel did such an amazing job - her home is so warm, cozy, inviting and is primitive perfection. She successfully added charm without sacrificing functionality. Please thank Mel for me - I got so many great idea from watching this video. Thank you so much! 😀
Love grandpa’s bible. I have my grandfather’s pocket Bible. Small, leather bound, written in German, with his name and date (1912) engraved. It is a true treasure. I always love to visit with you, Anne, and cousin Mel. Thank you. 🙏❤️ 🐇
I have to admit I was sad for Mel when she had to move from her last place but she has made this place a warm and comfortable primitive home! Her talent for creating charming vignettes is outstanding!
Thanks Anne; I alway's love touring Mel's home. Mel; I truely love your new home, it is so warm and cozy and I love how you decorate! Thanks again Ladies for brightening up my day! Love ya!🥰
I grew up in the 80’s. In ‘87, I was in the first grade and my teacher used to hit us with a ruler or pull our hairs if we weren’t paying attention or didn’t do our homework. We were scared of her, but every student that left her classroom at the end of the school year, left with a 2nd or 3rd grade reading level.
Hi Anne! I.always love seeing Mel and her beautiful home! She always decorates it sooo darling!! I really enjoyed watching!! You both have a wonderful weekend coming up! Xo💕💕💕😘
Loving Mel's new place! I recently downsized as well and I'm definitely not complaining about my heating bill! Not complaining about how fast I can clean it either! I do kinda miss Mel's wallpaper from her other place. Thank you Ladies!
Love you two together. I went to a small one room school for 1 yr. There were 3 in my class and I was the only girl. Our teacher was one mean woman and we had to sit with our elbows at the edge of the desk with our hands flat down, feet flat on the floor, before we could be excused from the room. Then she chose who was next. Mrs. Love!!!
Came into a very quiet room one day to see a boy tied to his chair and tape on his mouth. I'm sure today they would say he had Attention Deficet disorder.
I just loVve cousin Mel...I wish I had a cousin Mel! ♥️ I love your wood, metal and neutral way of decorating, yet staying primitive! Happy Spring y'all...from Alabama!🌿🤍🌿
La casa de tu prima Mel está más pequeña que la que tenía antes pero esta muy bella todos los adornos que tiene me encantan, toda la casita es adorable
Adore cousin Mel's beautiful little home. It inspires me so much. My daughter and I will be drastically downsizing sometime this year, and looking at Mel's cosy home makes me fear the move a little less. Thank you for sharing!
Adorable home and adorable people who fill it! Mel makes a cozy, cheerful home. ♥ Also, love the stories of old school, oh my. I went to Catholic school, in a group for that school and the stories and legends of some of the nuns are not pleasant.
The memories! I also went to private school, the teachers did spank, we did get in trouble at home for trouble at school, we did write lines, I did talk too much at school. Mel is so joyful she just lifts up everyone else. Love her homeplace.
You guys are so much fun to watch. Always love seeing Mel and her fun decorating. Sorry to hear about blooming Astor, been saving my money to buy a pillow. Her pillows are beautiful and I liked the pink pillow and quilt. All looks great. Thanks Anne and Mel. Happy spring to you both🌷
Looks really good. I let go of all winter decor a few weeks ago and even have white tulips in my living room. I think your chair looks good either way pad or no pad. I really like your dinning room, that furniture piece against the wall with the sign is very well put together.🙏🏻❤️
Thanks Anne and cousin Mel for a fun video to watch while I nibbled on a Reeses peanut butter egg that I shouldn't be eating. 😉 Love all the spring touches. I've been thinking about it but so far I still have snowmen out.
Love what Mel has done for spring. I've still got winter stuff out. But that's par for the course...every year I think I'll get ahead of the game, and never do. I'd like to know how Mel gets it all done.
Love the tour, thank you cousin Mel and Anne. Love those little bunnies in the cake tin. Always loving the ideas and grateful for the inspiration sending hugs to you all xx
I was so excited to know you were going to give us viewers a tour. I have to say, you are one of my favorites to watch! I too change frequently and will put something sonewhere...I'll change it again and again after viewing Instagram sites! We have so much in common ... I surely wish you could respond or have an Instagram or Facebook page... I live in a condo but am strictly colonial/ some prim and minimal . You put things everywhere, and I feel closed in when I do it... It'll bug me to no end! I too am ocd to the max! (I wash my car frequently as well because I do not like it dirty!) Do you decide to change up or polish or clean later at night? I do!!!! Anyway... Love your home. You are fortunate to have so many shops that carry what you love. I work in my friends shop from time to time as well. She is very primitive/ antique. It's called Moravian House Antiques in Lititz PA. They have a Facebook page if you both care to check out. Cheers to you both for always giving my heart a boost!
Love it as always!!! I also have pink in my room. Always loved a splash of pink. Did you do anything different on your back porch? We all want to see the cute porch ♥️♥️♥️
this is so cute I love your kitchen! everything is so adorable & cozy> I esp like the cutting board over the stove, I'm stealing that idea love it thank you!
Well Mel…you’ve done it again! You’re such a great decorator! The blush pink in your bedroom is SO feminine! 💞 Thank you Anne for doing these videos for us to enjoy ❣️
Love you guys! So enjoy Mel’s sweet home! I know Mel said the pillow lady is not making them much anymore! Was wondering if u can give me her contact info. Please! Thanks! We always look forward to your shows! 🥰
I love the blush touch in the bedroom! The bunnies are so cute. Mel is always a delight! Anne, have you ever thought about hosting a ladies’ shopping day visiting the prim shops in your area? That would be so amazing!
Hi Maria. I have actually. I thought of it long before the pandemic and then I tabled until I thought it would be safe… and I think we’re getting to that point now.:) thanks for bringing it up again. I’d like to do more things like this.:)
I always look forward to going to cousin Mel's house for the tour each season she's so inspirational to me to try and downsize I have too much in my small space
Thank you Anne for another great video. I SO look forward to Mel’s decorating videos! Loved the blush pink bedding and of course all of her wonderful pillows. She is so creative with her lovely vignettes and touches of whimsy.
She does have cute clothing and the funniest thing that we didn’t talk about in the video is that her clothing bar snapped in half before the video. Lol
Thank you Anne for another wonderful video. Very enjoyable and cousin Mel's home looks so cozy and welcoming for spring. What a pleasure to tour her home and visit with the two of you. Please tell Mel her nail polish is beautiful and perfect for spring. As always I look forward to your video's and hope you both enjoyed your day. Even though it doesn't seem like spring here in upstate Pa in the midst of a snow storm, Happy Spring to you and Cousin Mel. 🩷🌷🪻
Thank you Gail… Happy Spring to you too! It just started snowing here. We’re looking at 6-9 inches tonight. Mel always has her nails done so nicely! Have a great evening!
Love jumping into Spring with you and Mel! Yes, it does brighten up a wintry February day! Such a joy to hear all the news and see all the new "finds"! I love love all the new bunnies! Especially the ones on top of the washer ?? and on the kitchen chair! Those are adorable! I love watching you two decorating the chair, mat up, mat down...so cute! I like the mat up! Also, I love that Mel and I have the same birthday! Both Pisces! I too "hop" around when I get excited, especially when showing decor! Anne, when is your birthday? I don't know...Also, I finally got my "Woolley Inn" sign like Mels', so charming. My next one is a "Buttery" sign that I learned from you, Anne...again, such a nostalgic connotation, just the word "buttery" sounds so warm and cozy... anyway, just a delight, as always...love 💗 Leeta...PS: wish I was going shopping also😁 Take care 😘
Neat tour and hearing private school stories. I went to government boarding school which was also strict.
Living in a small apartment, I can appreciate the challenges that it presents. Mel did such an amazing job - her home is so warm, cozy, inviting and is primitive perfection.

Adore cousin Mel's beautiful little home. It inspires me so much. My daughter and I will be drastically downsizing sometime this year, and looking at Mel's cosy home makes me fear the move a little less. Thank you for sharing!
Aw. I’m sorry about the downsizing Rachel. I’m sure you will make it beautiful. Size doesn’t matter when it comes to beauty.
Yay! A trip to Cousin Mel's! Always a treat.
Always something new!
You two are so special together. 🥰 Thanks for the spring decoratig inspiration. {The chair in the kitchen...I like it with the cushion.}
You’re very welcome! Thank you for joining us!
Adorable home and adorable people who fill it! Mel makes a cozy, cheerful home. ♥ Also, love the stories of old school, oh my. I went to Catholic school, in a group for that school and the stories and legends of some of the nuns are not pleasant.
I’ve heard many stories of nuns in private schools. Glad you survived!
Oh my! What a story!! Oh I’ve always loved Gregorian chants
I glean so much inspo from her decorating! Tell her that her fans say hello please! And great filming as always, Anne! Love the banter too xxx
Thanks Jennifer!
Hi Cousin Mel and Anne 😊 Enjoyed the video today, love the pink throw, it's beautiful ❤️ Always enjoy both of you, y'all are too funny 🤣😊❤️
Lol thank you Emilia!
Mel has quite the prim collection going there!
Sharing brain cells….it’s a beautiful thing! ❤
Love the new prim bunnies. This is one of the cutest little homes.
It’s is adorable!!
Mel... I think you have me thinking right after watching your blog I am going to go EASTER!!!! Thank You made my day and lots of laughs!
Oh have fun with you Easter Decorating!
Mel needs her own channel!!! I adore her!!!!❤
Hehe. Exactly what we said in the last line of the video… she’ll never have her own because she’s challenged by technology.
@@AnneClay I so wish she’d learn, she’d be amazing at it!!!
Lol she will never learn… this I know. She has no desire to have her own channel.
The memories! I also went to private school, the teachers did spank, we did get in trouble at home for trouble at school, we did write lines, I did talk too much at school. Mel is so joyful she just lifts up everyone else. Love her homeplace.
Thank goodness times have changed in that way. No wonder most children hated school. Or maybe they still do… I don’t know :) my kids loved school.
Yes. An extra between season would be great with Mel..maybe you and sweet cousin anne have warm beverage together and chat
Wouldn't that be fun!
As usual, I love cousin Mel’s style!!!
Glad you enjoyed it!
You guys are so much fun to watch. Always love seeing Mel and her fun decorating. Sorry to hear about blooming Astor, been saving my money to buy a pillow. Her pillows are beautiful and I liked the pink pillow and quilt. All looks great. Thanks Anne and Mel. Happy spring to you both🌷
