Thank you, Anne for this video. What can I say, expect your home is absolutely primitive perfection - very cozy, comfortable and has a quiet, yet simplistic decorating. Every single room is so well appointed and you have not missed a single detail in your decor. Your home is like a trip back in time for a much more peaceful, restful and simpler way of life. You have done an amazing job! Your home really needs to be featured in an upcoming issue of either "Country Sampler" or "A Primitive Place" or both.
@@JohnChapman-qd4cd aw thanks so much John! Those are some really kind words! I was in the 2021 Issue of Primitive Place.
@@AnneClayYou need to be featured again or in books for your updated looks!!
@@reddog40 I may work on a book:)
Yes, I agree. I do believe your home would be wonderful to be featured in Country Sampler and other publications. ❤
It is special Anne. It so reflects colonial times and you. What a simple, cozy tribute to our history on an everyday basis. I love it. Thank you for sharing it with us!💝💝💝
@@kathypeterson526 thank you so much Kathy!!
Wow! What a fantastic job you did decorating your house! Thank you for the tour, I loved it.
One more thing, you have the ultimate antique, YOUR HOUSE!
@@robinrhea6125 thank you Robin… yes that is true!!!
Anne the table is so Beautiful! Perfect for your Home and Family.
Great deal on the chairs! Fantastic
tour. 🍁🍂🎃❤️
@@cherylhubert2713 thank you so much Cheryl!
Well Anne, your home is just wonderful!!! It is primitive perfection! I love your curtains. You have done an amazing job. I only wish I could have been to the meet and great!
Anne verdaderamente tu casa es maravillosa y muy especial... Se nota que está decorada con mucho amor
@@almag2613 muchas Gracias Alma!
The style of your awesome dining table is called a Trestle. 👍👍
@@17Gendron yes thank you! I don’t know why I can’t remember that especially when I’m trying to tell someone.
@@AnneClay I can understand completely! I used to have a mind like a steel trap. Lately, the trap has rusted and been permanently sprung! Although, people a lot younger than I am, have complained about "Brain Fog". So, I am wondering if it is cosmic! 🤔
Well done you, Well done!!! Because I was privileged to be a part of this last year, it was like old home week for me. Anne, your creative spirit and your use of pattern and color are out of the box wonderful. Add to that your thoughtfulness and the combination is unbeatable. Kudos, hugs and love to you and Tom for all your hard work and for being stewards of your primitive home.
@@bonniemiller9197 thank you
Bonnie!! Missed you and your amazing spirit this year!❤️ hi to Charlie!
Thank you Anne for sharing your beautiful home with your UA-cam friends. Love the minimum Colonial item's, always have love the decor of a Colonial home, as yours is not over the top..simple, warm and inviting...take care from Arizona 🌵
@@Elisabeth-zi8ww thank you so much Elisabeth!
Thank you so .much Anne for sharing your amazing primitive home. I love it.
@@melanienance4920 you’re welcome Melanie!!
Everything looks beautiful Anne! I especially love your dining room!
When you can be satisfied with antique pieces that are not perfect, you can acquire some very lovely primitives for way less money.....and I frankly think the imperfections really add to the time worn look and feel of primitive decor. I bought a large early ironstone crock or slop jar (not sure) with a pretty severe crack on one side....now I could have turned it so the crack is not visible, but I actually like the look of the large crack, so I allow it to be visible and I think it looks great. You've done a wonderful job in your decor and I really enjoyed watching.
Your home is wonderful. Thanks for the tour.
Your home is always a wonderful place to visit! So comfortable looking!
@@carobinsonrobinson3109 thank you Cindy!
Absolutely love this! Very strong Autumn/Colonial ASMR vibes! The tavern is amazing! Love the table! Thanks for sharing! Happy Fall Days! And Weeds to me are Unwanted Plants 😂
@@brendaw53 lol
LOVE THIS ! Beautiful inside and outside too. Thank you for sharing.
@@charlottemacdiarmid309 thank you Charlotte!
I just found your videos a week ago. What enjoyment. I love you ,
Cousin Mel, Lainey, Alice and everyone else. I want to be Mel's neighbor. She could decorate my little house. Keep the videos coming I love the samplers. I love everything!
Oh thank you!! Welcome to the channel!! I have about 800 videos you can watch in my library! ❤
So wonderful! Can only imagine how cool it would be living there.
@@kathleenroberts7972 truly is cool!
Such a beautiful home Anne you must be so proud 😊
Wow, Anne! Your home is beautiful! ❤
Absolutely love everything about your home and gardens. It's just so perfect and such a special place. Thank you for sharing it with all of us. ♥ Getting to see it in person was a real treat! And the tour was so special. ♥
@@tomevans9681 hi Tom!! Hi to Dean too!! So great to meet you guys Saturday! A treat to have you here!
@@AnneClay We absolutely loved every minute. Thank you again for being the perfect host. ♥
Love everything about her house❤❤
Thank you for sharing your home. It’s beautiful! Home is a place that brings us peace and joy. It is not about what is in it but more about the memories we make in it!
@@melindacurfman8259 thank you Melinda.:: so true.
Wow! Your home is large if that was just your downstairs! It’s beautiful and has so much character❤
@@corinabecerra953 thank you Corina… yes it’s 3000 square feet! But you haven’t even seen the outbuildings yet. The upstairs is only over the cape part of the house… so it’s not double this house size. Most of this house is on one level.
I love your home Anna inside and outside it’s amazing. I love the way you decorated every room ❤️
@@deborah3055 thank you Deborah!
I love your tavern! What a great place to use when you have guests!
@@lyndakling901 thank you Lynda… it is!! In the winter we often cook in the fireplace or beehive oven.
Anne, loved your tour of your beautiful primitive home. I really wondered where your Witches were, and then, they were there👏🏻 thanks so much for the tour, loved everything about it. Your curtains, rugs, comforters are all special and really dress up your home. Your home says, look at me, I’m primitive but cozy and welcoming! Happy fall Anne, enjoy all your beautiful outside colors. They don’t stay around long🍁🍂
@@marlenefolta6912 thank you Marlene! Yes, those fall colors vanish quickly! I was taking an outside shower today and the leaves on a beautiful yellow maple were steadily dropping and landing at my feet and I thought… tomorrow there will hardly be any leaves left on that tree.🥲
Thank you!! Can’t wait to see the upstairs 🙏🏻😁
@@suzanne9204 thanks Suzanne. The upstairs is only two bedrooms and a bathroom and it is occupied by my daughter’s bedroom and my husband’s office so there’s not really anything to see up there. It’s storage and Salvation Army. Lol
I loved it!! Thank yoú much for sharing your home!
Ill be over soon to sleep in that last lrg bedroom..i might be in there for a few days...no worries. ❤️
I love your house tour!! I been here since you started your channel and love how things change from.time.to.time
@@daisyycanelatv thank you!!! And thank you for being here from the start! Yes things have changed so much through the years! I think I’m finally getting to the point that maybe I can change little things and leave all the big things alone… well maybe!
Anne, I absolutely love the table and chairs in the dining room.
@@barbaradzitko1826 thank you Barbara! Tom thought I was nuts when I commissioned the table! Because … well I have a tavern table addiction… I can’t get enough! Now they’re all in the barn!
@@AnneClay And I'm sure the tavern tables look very nice in the barn and will get good use there. BTW - I forgot to mention that I also like your pewter and redware collections and the way you have them displayed. Take care, Anne.
@@barbaradzitko1826 thank you Barbara! Yes they actually work well in the barn! I’ll do a barn tour too… maybe tomorrow morning!
Your home is so beautiful. How nice that you found so many of the same chairs for around that beautiful table. The primitive style is contagious isn't it? I love it! Thanks for sharing your home. I was hoping to see a tour😊
@@pattyjakubowski6614 hi Patty… you’re welcome!! I finally got all the bedrooms down here done and ready so there was no time like the present!
@@AnneClay I am so happy for you🩷
@@pattyjakubowski6614 thank you! I’ve been pushing it hard the past two months. One of the bedrooms has been a storage place and was a mess but when I started designing my own stuff it was so fun to get it all together.
I have no words to express how beautiful your home is, really feels like we stepped back in time. Thank you for sharing ❤
@@karenrinkiewicz3820 thank you so much Karen!
Thank you Anne I really enjoyed your home❤
@@KathyGrimm-r3d thank you so much Kathy!!
Anne your home is a prim museum tour! Every detail warm& inviting glad your feeling better!❤
@@conniecrawford1403 thank you so much Connie!! ❤️
Anne, thank you for the tour of your beautiful home. I love so much about each room, I can imagine how many people from the past walked in each of those rooms that you showed. Thank you again.
@@narellefialkowski2270 thank you! Yes! All the people that lived here and visited. A circuit judge lived here. All the weddings. All the race car drivers like Paul
Newman and actors and interesting people from around the area and even the world when it was a restaurant. The house loves visitors!
I love this video, your home is so beautifully primitive, which is my favorite. I also love the informal style of the tour, thank you for sharing it.
Very cute! Well done!
@@JackieMooney-fr1lo thank you!
Your home is a lovely piece of history. I think the caretaking responsibility would be too much for me, yet its lovely to behold. My 1745 cape in Ma was a wonderful home that we restored and lived in 28 years, however being widowed I had to leave it for something easier and simplier to maintain. New homes do not ever have the ambiance that old ones do even with antique decor or nicely done prims. We are blessed to have part of the history of New England if for only awhile.
@@janew4690 thanks Jane! Yes New England has so much history and beautiful old homes. Sorry you had to leave your 1745 home but I get it. I wouldn’t be able to stay here without Tom.
Anne, Thank you for the great home tour! All your designs that you've added to your home are just so beautiful.
I especially love the stenciled curtains!
You look amazing! I'm so happy you're feeling the results of carnivore! I found since losing weight I get cold easier with having less fat insulation. 😅
I celebrated buying 2 pairs of size 10 jeans this week! I'm down from a 16.
My last goal is the size 7/8! But the real gift is the physical and mental health benefits. ❤ Stay carnivore strong! After 14 months the benefits keep coming for me . Don't focus on weight rather on the health part. The weight will naturally keep coming off in due time. You stall then you lose, but there is always some kind of benefit happening. Take care! Thanks for another great video and for sharing your time and home.
@@Elizabeth-ke3ti thanks Elizabeth!! Congrats on the size 10’s!!! I just got into my size 12’s for the Meet and Greet! Felt great! Yes lots of stalling but you are right….. health benefits have been adding up! It really is some kind of fountain of youth!!!
@@AnneClay Congrats Anne on the
Size 12! That's wonderful!! Lots of internal healing is going on and just keep on the course. You will be in a size 10 before you know it!
It's really about how you're feeling and your overall health.
Yes, the hands of time feel like they've gone back in time . Never did I think I would put on a size 10 ever again!!
Happy for you, Anne! That you're feeling good and getting healthy!
@@Elizabeth-ke3ti honestly… I wake up at 6 or 7 every morning now…: I haven’t done that in 35 years! I feel good but I’m m looking forward to feeling great! Thanks for the encouragement!
@@AnneClay This is so wonderful! You have longer days now to live fully!
My husband lost his job of 40 years and is looking to find something to work 5 more years. I have been able to handle it better because of Carnivore. My brain is fully functioning to try and support.
Things will be okay, it's the times we live in now. Very important to be healthy now, especially.
Thanks for the tour! Looks great!🧡🧡🧡
@@toriestes381 thank you!
Oh my goodness Ann I absolutely love the table. You have made exactly what I would love to have and what a wonderful size for all family and friends that come to enjoy a meal at your home lovely home. Everything is so beautiful. I love the primitives I have a few pieces inmy home as well I kind of have a farmhouse vibe and I love it 🥰 ps love the size of your kitchen sink ❤️💕👋🇨🇦
@@jennifertaylor5776 thanks Jennifer!
@@jennifertaylor5776 thank you so much Jennifer! Yes that table is just a great piece! I keep wanting to go in there and just look at it!!
Hi Anne! Such fun to be taken on your home tour! You have made quite a few changes since Paul and I saw your home in person last year at your Meet & Greet, but I just love what you have done in every room! What a wonderful table you had made for your "dining room." Love that room so much! Of course, your tavern, your buttery, and your large guest bedroom are favorites of mine too! Can't wait to see what you and Alice do in the tavern! Happy Halloween to you, Tom, and family!
@@avintagetwin9451 hi Diana!! We missed you and Paul! Yes lots of changes!! Happy Fall! ❤️
That was an amazing tour and I so enjoyed seeing your home with all your gorgeous treasures ~ thank you (nwpaintedlady)
@@sharonsabin785 thank you so much Sharon!
Thank you so much fun
@@wendyelston9400 thank you Wendy!
Your house is feeling very GOOD!!
@@robinrhea6125 thank you Robin! I believe it’s very happy!
Thank you, Ann. I have been with you from the beginning and have enjoyed all the renovations. Thank you for sharing this tour with us. I have gained a real appreciation for primitive furnishings and have added a few items here and there. So thank you again
@@KarleenHarrison-r4c hi Karleen! Thank you for being with me along all these 6 years! Glad that you’ve been enjoying the primitive furnishings too!
Loved the tour ❤️Thank you
@@debbiefearnley4288 thank you!
I love the coziness of your home. But I have to tell you those witches are awesome
@@missbonimeduridesidns1793 lol they’re great aren’t they?? That’s another thing I kept coming home with that Tom just thought I lost my mind over!
@@AnneClay lol
Anne, l truly felt like I was transported back in time. I love all the dark walls in the dining room with that gorgeous table and the witch wall. How fun and cozy. You nailed it! Thank you for sharing. Your home is lovely and it was the next best thing to being there.
@@Lorina22 thank you so much Lorina!
So beautiful!
@@Patricia-h8r3d thank you Patricia!
Anne, you are amazing! You have done so well with your home decor theme since you bought your home. I am happy to see how you are keeping our early American tradition alive by emphasising the Colonial era...an era gone by. I truly enjoyed this tour! Have a happy and safe Fall season :)
@@skaycgoldenridge thank you so much! Going to every colonial museum home in New England gave me some great inspiration! Glad you enjoyed it! Happy Fall!
Hi Anne, nothing special!!Your home is just absolutely gorgeous you've done so many changes it's just beautiful. I'm so inspired yournew table is wonderful what a steal on the chairs too!I was actually on Pinterest looking at color stains to redo my table and we'll Your table nailed it for me!!Every detail in each room is perfect. I just bought the Parker lamps and wanted red willow but it was out and can't find willow lampshades I paired with pinwheel. 😂You and Alice are going to have a great time doing the tavern and I bet Alice loved all your changes in the house too!I'm still on my minimalist journey because of your hm and I will be working on changes in mine from this video. Thank you for letting us visit! God bless you and Shirtless Tom and Cami and the furkids 🕊💚🎃
@@reddog40 oh that’s wonderful! That minimalist journey is so much fun because it’s a real exercise in both balance and scale! Not to mention it’s so much easier to clean around. We are going to have a great time decorating it!!
Didn't realize how big your house was?? Wow! Your new dining table is Fabulous! He did an excellent job! Love your new curtains and rugs, especially the one with the crow, love him! Thanks so much for this tour of your home!
Oh I almost forgot… glad to see your pewter is out again.
@@cindyk4294 lol it’s been out for a while now. I also have some in my barn tavern.
Be still my heart ❤. When I saw you had a tour video of your exceptionally gorgeous home, I immediately made a pot of pumpkin coffee with pumpkin creamer to go in it. Put the dogs out to pee so they won’t bug me. Now they are covered up napping because it’s cold outside here in Ohio. So I’m drinking my coffee with quiet sleeping dogs covered up with a nice warm throw and I’m in heaven!!! Your taste of decorating is amazing. I love your home so much that I just might move in with you all. lol. Seriously friend it’s perfect. I could hear Cousin Mel saying about the table. I’ll be watching this over again a few more times. Happy Fall to you and Tom. Hugs to all 🍂♥️🤎🧡🍂
@@donnabailey929 aw thanks so much Donna! You painted such a perfect pumpkin picture that I started wanting pumpkin coffee myself!
@@AnneClay yes and pumpkin creamer. 🧡
I love your new dining room and your red trimmed room and your entire fall tour. I was waiting for it.🍂 I don't rush fall. I let it extend to Thanksgiving ..Fall decorations are so beautiful 🦃🍁
@@ForeverandAlways-d2b thank you!! It’s so true.. Fall decor is so beautiful and I think fits the primitive style the best!
I absolutely love your gorgeous home Anne! It never, ever gets old to see a new video of it!! 🤎 And I was there in person!! Lol
@@dawnperras5359 aw Dawn… that’s sweet! Always better in person tho!!
Wow, the house looks amazing, but for the life of me I can’t figure the layout. When you opened the door to the bedroom off the kitchen, I nearly keeled over. I never realized you had 3 bathrooms down there either. Someday you’ll have to tell Kami that we want to see the upstairs! 🍁
@@cindyk4294 I should put a drone view in again. It’s hard to figure out because they just kept adding on. Basically there is the main Cape… that has the older rooms including the upstairs. Then it shoots out the back for the living room,‘office and the west wing of two beds and a bath. Then when you go back to the living room is shoots to the north where there are the two kitchens and then another bedroom and bath. We all used to get lost there and it seemed so huge, but we got used to it.
If you go to the recently re-opened Barnard Tavern at Historic Deerfield (Mass.), they have a few of the (short) tavern tables between the chairs almost like a coffee table. The taller tables are round, easier to eat at.
@@elizabeththequeen943 so true! I have some of the round ones. I have to tell you tho… they are both flip top and I’ve been known to flip the top with the dishes on it!! They’re now in the barn:)
I was waiting to see the kitchen i remember the blue pieces you had in there. I was surprised no blue ////I just thought you might have added more. Did you get anything at the walker show? have covid so could not go.
@@patriciapolitano hi Patricia. Yes I did. The blue is in the bedroom and also in my daughter’s bedroom.
Not special?? I love your home! It’s huge and wonderful!
@@janetduncan3243 thank you so much Janet.
👍💕
If anybody has an Early American collection they would like to keep intact, consider the George Walton house in Augusta, Georgia, Meadow Garden. George Walton was one of the signers of the Declaration of Independence.
Because I watch so many of your videos, and I have so many portraits of me (My friend liked to sketch and paint me.) I started collecting samplers! I won’t use anything acidic on them, like tea, coffee, etc. Anne, I like maximalist decorating and Mackenzie Childs with so little sculpture!. What is the best battery flickering operated candle!? As much as I like Mackenzie Childs and checkerboard I, I like Colonial and checkerboard, n
Are you the one that had a video on how to make the faux capes?
No. That was Bridget.😊
Are the candle wick bedspreads from Bate’s Mill compatible with Colonial and Early American decor?
@@tcjones4386 lots of people make them fit in.
That weed is teasel. It used to be nailed to a board to card wool
@@susanstefanovich6804 oh yes!! Thank you!!!
Can I get a link to your stencil wallpaper??
@@TracyUlmer-e5w anne-clay.myshopify.com/
@@TracyUlmer-e5w I’m not sure if I have that exact pattern there. I can certainly add it if you’re interested.
You can easily stencil walls yourself!
@@lyndakling901 some people would rather paper I’ve found.:)
It’s teasel
@@lyndakling901 oh that’s right!! Thank you!! Teasel!
