I would take your bungalow over those modern kitchens any day. I live in a 1959 house that is all original with yellow tiles, sinks and bathtubs. I keep everything from the 40s-50s in wonderful technicolor.
Scott I love what you do that kitchen is magazine worthy.Stay true to your convictions. I am with you I am very eclectic and not changing. I agree life is exciting with color.I am not color blind .
What fun! This brought back almost forgotten, and now barely remembered visions of my elder relatives kitchens/homes from my childhood in the 50's. They were all farmers and most lived in older farmhouses. The green and black linoleum was in my great aunt's kitchen. My Gram had black and white linoleum, white gas stove with a jadite green drop leaf table next to it as a baking/prop area, and a VERY bright yellow cracked ice dining set. They bought a brand new 50's home with aqua kitchen and appliances (transported from the next town where an entire housing tract of new homes were bought by the state to use the land for a new freeway). I remember crying when I saw the old farmhouse (built of chestnut wood!) torn down. My babyhood and toddler years were spent in that quaint little house, but I soon came to love the 'new' house. Your kitchen will be lovely with the spark of color from adding the border.
Love it, love it, love it. My house was built in 1920 and has the original rectangular white tiles in my grey and aqua kitchen.
😊😊😊the earlier kitchens I relax in.More homely(thats a compliment in England)
Scott, I love your kitchen. I recently moved into a new home. I'm restyling the kitchen. It was similar to the new kitchens on your video. The cabinets were dark Grey! Were! Now they are a Vintage green! Thought I'd share. Great video, as always. ❤
Wow good for you! I bet it looks very pretty!🇨🇦🐣🇨🇦
@@peggy-ann1961 Thank you! We think it does.
Love the Thomas Dolby reference!🤣🤣🤣
Very creative and fun…..👍
I’m loving all mamas heels and dresses. So cool.
Love the heavy cast iron sinks with legs!!
Cream and green check floor😊
The green and white is oh so bright and cozy!💚💚❇❇
I enjoyed this video so much! Brought back lots of pleasant memories....
Great video and very informative, Scott. In the late 50’s our family kitchen was pink, grey, white and chrome. Great times watching my Mom cook up some delicious meals in there.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ This video❣️Thank you, Scott !
Oh God, I love the visual contrast of the jade/malachite green glassware with the cream colored counter in the intro!
Love it💚
😊😊😊a wonderful compilation of magazine pictures
Scott. I designed my kitchen in 1963 and choose red Formica. The. Counters still look brand new and have always enjoyed the bright ciolor
Take me back to a land of color. Beautful!
With the new kitchens…I bristle at the thought of cooking in my living room.
Right? I love having a separate kitchen. It feels cosier and somehow makes the house seem bigger than it is.
Thanks for the wonderful tour! I'd be over the top happy to have any of those, with only a couple exceptions. And Scott, you are far more charitable than I am. I think most modern kitchens look ugly, dead and soul-less.
Don't throw your wallpaper scraps away. Use them to form a border around your ceiling light in the shape of a square, or diamond, or even a art deco inspired zip zag shape. Love color, especially red. Love all the old kitchen photos.
I love red in a kitchen. Very classic.
That was great! Very interesting.
I can hardly wait.😊
My brothers kitchen is the exact layout as the final floor picture. The flooring is like Wonderbread polka dot colors, and it goes up the wall about 4".
Thank you, Scot. Your home is lovely--good choices all around. That coffee pot is a thing of beauty. Appreciate all the effort to collect those great kitchen pictures.
Can't wait to see what you do 😊
I absolutely love all of the kitchens! Love venetian blinds!
Love your colors/decor throughout your 1925 bungalow; but especially your kitchen .
Oh Scott, I absolutely adored this incredibly enjoyable and informative video post! I agree with your reasoning and vibrant color choices for your kitchen restoration, and I cannot wait to see your new fridge and all of the other 'new' additions that you've installed! Personal side note: I hope you will use those adorable red metal Scottie Dog plant pot holders somewhere in your kitchen, they are fantastic! Plant some trailing ivy in those and, 'bingo bongo', you're there!!! 😍🥰
Dutch doors always remind me of Mr. Ed. Your kitchen is going to look amazing. I can't wait to see it all finished!!
Can't wait to see the finished product!
I love your kitchen it has so much personality. I’ve never been a fan of anything modern. I was born in 54 and my mama loved her roosters in the kitchen ❤
I haven't been a fan of the last 10 years or so of the gray and stainless-steel appliances kitchens. I like a colorful, cheerful looking kitchen. The first kitchen reminds me of my Nana's kitchen. And I remember a wringer washing machine in her kitchen.
I love listening to you and your commitment to that era
Loved the old kitchens! I think the bright cheerinesss was for the benefit of the hiusewife. Which leads to this this thought: the welcoming look hadv. to do with it being the center of the home. Because Mom was there! Its often where after school snacks were served. Home wwork may have been done there too! Andbitvsmelled so good of dinner cooking. But Mom, and thus the kitchen, was the heart of home.
I love your cream, green, with red accents color scheme. Can’t wait for the wallpaper border at the top. I’ve despaired with the gray, gray, white blandness in design recently. My kitchen has jewel colors and roosters and hens on top of my cabinets. Go Scott!
Yes Scott. You definitely know what you’re doing. I loved seeing these pictures.
OK, I just found my kitchen - My 1930's Arts and Crafts Bunglow had kitchen and bath redone in probably the 1950s. There's a pink bathtub (but no other pink fixtures) and a red 'crackle' lino countertop (with stainless steel banding) in the galley kitchen. The kitchen with the yellow walls, red counters and black & white checkerboard floor is my new dream! I'm keeping the red counters! I have a couple of small fill in cabinets that will get the stainless steel laminate on new tops with the same profile as the existing. It's (going to be) so CUTE.
Loved seeing the different kitchens!
Lovely just lovely. I now understand your colorful border it will be magnificent. Have a great Easter Sunday.
Thanks for the Vintage Kitchen Retrospective! I enjoyed seeing these, and seeing which things I'd seen in either my grandmother's homes or in other spots. My family bought a 1950s house in the early 70s, complete with an old Coldspot vintage fridge (which still worked great!). It had the big chrome handle that made that deep, chunky sound when you opened it. My folks painted the walls harvest gold, and put down black and white tile, and I loved it! It had one of those space ship looking fixtures over the dining table, the kind that retracts up or down when you pull it, and kind of space-aged see-thru shelving by the back door and adjacent to the basement stairs. Some great memories there!
That percolator and toaster are so dreamy I can't stand it!!! So wonderful!!
I love modern kitchens, but not in old houses. Your kitchen is perfect.
In the birthday party picture - I spy matching mother-daughter dresses and.. is that a modern dishwasher next to the sink?
That coffee brewer is everything!
Thanks for all the kitchens and colors. So much fun! Happy Easter Scott and family!
That was so much fun! I love the red and white floors as well. Have fun with the color Scott.
A delightful review of kitchens and a bit of a tease, in anticipation of your kitchen and wallpaper border!!
Beautiful kitchens. The one with the Dutch door looked just like the one on the house I grew up in. Only difference was the stove and refrigerator placement were reversed. We had red counter tops that lasted forever. Mom always had cheerful wall paper on the walls that she hung herself. The linoleum floor was black background with what looked like bright colored paint splotches. A man used to come in twice a week and professionally buff the floors so they were always very Shiney. Totally lived veiwing these old kitchens that are way more homey and cozy and inviting over today's modern designs. 👍
My 1959 ranch had a bright teal linoleum floor, "first Lady pink" walls (Mamie Eisenhour's favorite color), and crazy variegated birch cabinets. It's a bit calmer now but still very 1950s.
I have a 1954 house, one bathroom was gray tile and supposedly Mamie pink tub, sink and commode. It looked more salmon colored, it was disgusting. We still have the pink tub, too much to mess with, but we lightened up the rest. We are thinking of redoing the whole thing now.
A Mangle! Mother used to let me do the handkerchiefs and pillowcases on our mangle when I was a little girl. I will never forget the clean steamy smell of it. Thank you Scott, for the walk back in time. Your found graphics for this segment are wonderful.
I am 67 so have gone through a lot of changes in home decor. I see that now my grandmothers' sinks are now the in thing in the kitchen. How many were just thrown away years ago during a reno. I've seen a few that the people renovating have found the old ones in a basement or garage and have put them back in the stainless steel ones taken out. Lol.
Scott’s a great teacher. I love these history lessons. 🍎
Gotta love it Mr Man. Love the coffee perking along
Loved this presentation!
HI Scott, This was so much fun, and brought back so many happy memories ! The kitchen was the place where the bustling activity of Holiday cooking, small talk, and the latest gossip took place,so why not make it a cheerful place to be ! I loved the illustrations you provided with your voice over. My favorite kitchen was the one with the "Breakfast Nook" to the side of the kitchen.You sure don't see designs like this anymore. Glad you're staying true to your Bungalow style home. Hope your kitchen border is being placed at the top of the wall border, my favorite spot ! Happiness, Cindy 🌻
I loved this soooo much - every bit of it! Thanks for sharing the ♥️💛💚💙🧡
Those dancing veggies! Love your cream and green kitchen 💚
I freaking love your depression era style! I’m pretty sure my past life was spent in the 1920s and 30s.. ❤
You know some of these rooms are awesome and it reminds me of doll houes
Colorful, charming and cozy!❤
Your kitchen is awesome! As a child in the 50's, we had red counter tops, black and white floor and formica dinette in Louisiana. In Texas we had yellow counter tops and the linoleum tiles were yellow with colorful confetti dots. Couldn't find your "escapeas" on that floor. We had plastic swirled tiles in the bathrooms, pink and maroon in one and pumpkin and pine green in the other! 😂❤ #more color
Those 20s kitchens are GORGEOUS.
I’ve always loved that style right back to when I was in my twenties.
My house has timber boards and laminex cupboards but I managed to paint the walls a clear, light 50s yellow, I found rattan style contact in Kmart and covered my dingy green laminex pantry cupboards (everyone who sees it loves it)
And I put in a chrome and yellow cracked ice kitchen table.
But now I’m on the look out for a border.
Love your percolator Scott!
Any American manufacturer who started manufacturing those sinks, linos, cupboards would make a fortune today.
Your kitchen is great! You’ve brought me to appreciate 30’s style, I’ve been a Victorian purist for a long time.
Can’t wait to see it!!😊
Scott, your decorating skills are truly amazing! Really love the cream and green with red accents, so nice! Sorry, but some people are just plain rude and have unhappy lives to tell you what they don't like about your kitchen. Please don't listen to them! Happy Easter! 🤗
Maybe the rise in depression is because people have drab boring lack of color in their homes
Loved all of this! That final kitchen reminded me of my mom and all the fun birthday parties she created for us all. I have to say that dutch doors always remind me of Mr. Ed and his big head popping through the top half!
I love the knitting on the sofa in the kitchen! Dutch door so charming! Your colors are my favorite! Happy Blessed Easter Scott!
Hi Scott, this was FUN...The kitchen at marker 13:35 Had everything to keep the wife in that kitchen, (the poor thing) a Wringer clothes washer, ironing area, cooking area, and enough room for the playpen. But MY dreaded nemesis THE VENITIAN BLINDS! My memories as a teen were of having to clean them, Washing them in the tub trying to remove the buildup of grease created from cooking fried food, and then rehanging them. The first thing I tossed when we bought our home was getting rid of them In my kitchen today I still have a stool, because I'm short and need it to retrieve wares on the top shelves. Love color and my kitchen is red with black appliances. Red-checked curtains on the windows and side door. Have a Happy Easter, cannot wait to see your finished 1920's kitchen.

I absolutely love your kitchen. The wall border is perfect. My Grandmother had a red and yellow kitchen. The pictures brought back fond memories of days gone by and visiting my Grandparents.
A local businessman in town was restoring old apartments, and they discovered a Murphy Door Co. cabranette steel kitchen. Very compact, but fun. They dated to the 1920s.
Within you for Sharing. Reminds me of my kitchen my Mother cooked in.I reminds ne of the Samsonite everyday kitchen table and it was oval. Please Stay Safe Happy and Healthy Have A Wonderful Day
You had me at the Leigh Ware Green Wheat cup and saucer!! My husband and I were married in 2002 and that’s the china we asked for! And you’re so right about historic use of color in the kitchen! Loved every single image! Can’t wait to see your finished kitchen!
Watching you as I cook in my 1900s cast iron on my vintage Perfection stove 😊how wonderful! my wish list -a green farm sink a dutch door and so many other things that I saw in those pics,my Mothers house had those quaint semi circle cupboards🥰 I try n make my kitchen(home) as vintage as possible since I have so many fond memories of my families homes , it takes me back to wonderful times💖💖💖💖💖💖
Loved this vid Scott, those kitchen designs were awesome and fun! Your kitchen looks so nice and the tile looks beautiful! ✨️
I painted the bottom cabinets a different color than the top two years ago. I think that’s a relatively common modern trend.
I did my kitchen with yellow and purple checkerboard floor; the walls bottom is red top is vintage 1940s cherry wallpaper. The cabinets are panther cream the sink is yellow and counter tops are gray with boomerangs! Love all the vintage kitchens in your post 🥰
HAPPY EASTER!! Thank You for all the good memorys!! Love your home and the care you have given to it!!
I can't wait to see what you've chosen for the floor. Your white tiles do not look like plastic. They look clean and timeless. It will all come together wonderfully!
I think many people today haven’t experienced the kitchens of year. They are very plain and simple today. Long ago women were in the kitchen for many more hours and I think they had more personality! ! Can’t wait to see your border up.
Love these! My 1920s home had a glass block window in the kitchen and Dutch door. Grandparents built home 1948 had the same rounded end display counter and hollowed nook where I played with a toy found in cornflakes that you put baking soda in a deep sea diver and it bobbed in a bowl of water. Fridge had a storage area in the bottom for cereal boxes! Loved this so much! Our kitchen table was red!
Absolutely loved this!
Scott, great video. I enjoyed it so much. So many great looking kitchens back in the day. A trip down memory lane for me. I enjoy seeing your choices for your home and yes, pops of color have always been in vogue. Happy Easter to you. Enjoy! See you next week. Love your sense of humor that pops up.
Love how you've proved your points and put some complainers in their place 😉
You have the BEST videos! love the trip into the past-thank you.
I'm kinda jealous 💚🤪 Lol especially of your coffee maker 😉
Thanks for taking the time to make this video! Can't wait to see your kitchen updates🤗
Scott, I love your kitchen! I would love to sit there and have a cup of coffee and a ginger snap or two. Have a blessed Easter.
When I saw the photo at the beginning I thought you'd found a 1920's/30's sink
As a child in the 60's, I remember enjoying all the things displayed on those circular shelves in my parents' and grandparents' houses.
Such Fun! Your kitchen is the best of all of these and I am green with Percolator envy! (Noelle Stiles)
Happy Easter Scott. I enjoyed this very much, what vibrant cheerful kitchens!
Scott, your kitchen reminds me a bit of my Grandmother’s, where I learned to cook, bake, and preserve on a sawdust burning stove. Gas, and then electric took some getting used to. Gran had a wallpaper runner up along the ceiling line, it was flowers and butterflies. There was a pantry off the kitchen with a chest freezer and a long wall of preserves we had made on shelves. There was a Hoosier with all its parts, and growing plants all around the window over the sink. I loved the pullout cutting board with the kitchen stool. There was a small table covered in red oilcloth with 4 mismatched wooden chairs.
In my current kitchen, I did a mosaic back and side splash of blue irises on black. I did mosaic black between the counters and cherrywood cupboards. I intend to do above the cupboards and the ceiling, and above the curved side splash with Tuscan yellow stucco. My sinks and fixtures, and counters are black with a hardwood floor. It is holding its own, and guests drool.🖤🇨🇦
Oh that was such fun, I was smiling the whole way through! Thank you for those beautiful “ blasts from the past” Have a very Happy and Blessed Easter Scott!🐣🇨🇦🐣
I think my hub has been in a couple of those kitchens because cabinet doors are hanging open.
Also, there were some amenities in a couple of the kitchens that I didn’t recognize. The paper roller thing and the birthday party kitchen had what looked like a lid on the sink!
I think it's a dishwasher
That is just so interesting! Thank you !
I have an 80s kitchen ( Laura Ashley era) and I love it! .while changing the appliances ( integrated) , I’ve managed to keep all the cupboards that we originally had made out of solid oak bed ends..
I just love colour and will never shy away from pops of red .
These kitchens were so full of personality , the heart of the home.
I can’t wait to see your creation ..
Thank you for this look back! Very interesting and inspiring. Love your kitchen btw, "cheap" tile and all. ❤❤❤
Yes Scott!! You do you in your kitchen!! I now understand better what you are up to in your 20s-30s kitchen!!
