How is she 94?? She looks 30 years younger, she is so beautiful inside and out. What a talented painter she is, omg. Your grandma is wonderful, I love her.
Well Get Her! She must have seen so many things and changes especially for women in the workforce. She probably lives a strict health diet. The fact that she can live on her own is a miracle in itself. Most women and men her age would be living in a retirement home.
OH MY GOD!!!! What a beautiful lady your grandma is! A house full of treasures; the garden, the linen, the lamps, the china, the furniture!!! ❤❤❤ but above all, what an artist! Sending my greatest admiration to this incredible woman! ❤❤❤
Katy, thank you for this delightful video! The best thing we all would like to inherit from your lovely grandmother Eleanor is her poise, her elegance and her zest for life.
Wow she doesn’t look her age at all!!! She doesn’t act her age either! What a beautiful lady. Her backyard is a beautiful paradise. She has taken very good care of her things. She is a very good artist! How beautiful for her to have her art hung so she can enjoy it.
Oh my goodness, I love your grandma! Such a lovely queen of a woman! I cannot get over how talented and skilled she is too! Those paintings are stunning! And her home is so interesting and beautiful! Thank you for sharing this with us! I wanted to say too…I’m 49 and lost my own grandmother around 6 months ago. She was an absolute angel in my eyes…an angel who also had some sass and spunk. I know I’m incredibly lucky to have had her for 49 years but I still miss her and think of her every day. It really touches my heart that you value and cherish your grandma. Society seems to discount the elderly at times but our older loved ones can teach us so much and provide a love that lingers long after they are gone. Sorry for the novel length reply there. Long distance hugs for your grandma! She’s amazing!
😭 I love to hear this! I know what a special relationship it can be (and how lucky we are to have beloved grandmas). I’m sorry you lost yours. And I agree. We need elders to teach us and remind us and guide us. She’s always taught us how to age so gracefully while staying active and creative. Love to you and your grandma ❤️❤️❤️
How beautiful to have such a warm and loving relationship with grandma. Love her style with that color block sweater. And her paintings are incredible. I am so impressed that she did not start painting til her sixtys. What an accomplishment. I can see why that one won first place. I am 73 and have 3 grown grandsons. I am not sure they would think any of my stuff is cool. I have lots of blue and white china, tarnished patina silver, brass and copper pots and candle sticks and vessels. It will all end up in an estate sale , I'm sure. Oh well, the pleasure it gave me all these years was worth it.
Aw, thanks. We had a lot of fun doing this, and she is super inspiring to me. I can attest that even if the grandsons don’t want your treasures, the thrifting and estate sale girls (like me) will love them and treasure them too. I know I have quite a few grandma finds from thrift adventures.
I have a ton of blue and white and I see it as gift that my daughter helped me collect it. I feel sad that you don't have anyone to share your passion with...but as Katy says, there are thrifting people like her who will give the pieces a loving home...big hugs.
It's bittersweet sometimes, however the simple fact that nothing lasts forever is what makes everything in this video even more meaningful. Treasure your grandmother, you are incredibly lucky to still have her around. One day this video will be one of your absolutely fav things.....
Why are my eyes raining? 😢 What an endearing and lovely vlog. Your Grandma looks fabulous. 💯👏🏾🥰 Thank you for the tour, Katy. 🤗 I love her beautiful home and garden. And let's not forget her artwork, vintage collectibles, and yes, the linens. 😂 It's like a tour of a museum. I call dibs on the 1st place artwork. I joke. As an Indigenous-Native gal, I'm impressed. I honestly thought she purchased the artwork from a Native artist. Bravo, Grandma! 👏🏾🥳 You sure do take after your lovely grandmother. She clearly inspired you. Stylish, beautiful, creative, and artsy. 💗
😭 I love this. And so glad she was up for me filming to show everyone. She collected a lot of Puebla pottery from New Mexico. Others from places down in Mexico. BTW, what’s your tribe(s)? I wanna know what your artistic traditions are!
Your Gramma must have three green thumbs! Her garden is beautiful. And about those towels...my Granny and my Mom have closets like that...bursting with memories and smelling like home.
What a special episode this is! Thank you, Katy. These cups are called "Sammeltassen" (= Collectors Cups)! My 82 year old Mother has a collection, too. She also has them earmarked for me, because she is doing the same - divide her Stuff just in case.. I already have 2 sets from her at home. I love these cups because they are so colorful and all of them are pretty unique.
I had a feeling you might have some knowledge about these things. Great to know, especially since teacups don’t usually come with that third plate. Well, I’m honored to have them in our family.
I read your grandmas book about her childhood experience being in Berlin during WW2. It’s amazing that she went on to create such a beautiful life after living through such a horrific time. What an incredible role model for you and for us all. I feel so inspired. Thank you for sharing her creations with us.
Grandma is amazing❤ Her home is so beautiful and filled with love right down to her towels❤ Thank you for sharing, it just made me so happy! Love you Grandma❤
Loved the tour but loved Grandma more!! I can't believe she's been painting for only 20 years! So talented!!! We need to see more of her and would love to see more of her paintings as well 🙂
I love your grandmother, her art work, garden and yes her towels. I am 72, so that was my towels and linens growing up.plus my mother was an artist. Love y’all Cindy in NC
Oh she's delightful!! I wouldn't have guessed her age though, she looks and acts MUCH younger. While I love the towels, I would kill for a set of those sheets!! Any design, just those old amazingly soft sheets. Any chance she'd adopt me? I grew up with those sheets. It's hard to describe them to someone who hasn't slept on them before..just buttery soft yumminess! Oh how I miss them. You cracked me up with the bathroom trashcan...I have a mint green/aqua one that is older than me and I'm in my 60's😱 (And in PERFECT condition) (the trashcan, not me) Katy, this was a WONDERFUL video. I can see who you get your artistic side from. It's also obvious that Grandma adores you too. Give her a kiss for me 😘🩷🩷🩷
It’s so nice to know there are other sheet queens who are as into them as I am. You’re right. They’re indescribable if you haven’t felt them. May I also inherit your trashcan? I adore them! Haha.
I was just getting ready for bed when l saw this video. As a grandmother myself l had to see it and it was well worth it. It is such a lovely home, filled with meaningful treasures. The German China is beautiful. As one Oma to another thank you for this pleasant tour.
This video has brought me an immense amount of joy. I recently endured a ten day Hospitalization due to complications with my Sickle Cell Disease. I have been physically and mentally exhausted; yet, from start to finish, this video caused an unceasing smile to stretch broadly across my face. Your Grandmother is a beautiful, lovely Soul. I can feel her sweetness emanating through the screen. Her Home appears to be the picture of comfort, and I strongly admire the tender, caring bond that the two of you share. Thank you for creating this video. I never had a true Grandmother experience in Life. For the duration of this video, I felt my own Spirit living vicariously through you. Lastly, I am not a violent person, but I could absolutely envision myself becoming as scrappy as necessary if it came to it for that darling, Vintage, daisy yellow wastebasket. It reminds me of the now late Shelley Duvall's character in the Robert Altman film, 3 Women! Her character in that film is obsessed with that precise shade od Daisy Yellow and everything from her stunning Vintage wardrobe (the film is from the 70s), to her car, and even her apartment decor is monochromatic Daisy yellow. I encourage you to see that film or at least pull up a clip or two. It would be a lovely one to view with your beloved Grandmother with glasses of Chardonnay in hand. 🖤🕯🖤
Aw, I’m so happy if this brought you any relief or distraction. Sending all the healing energy to you, and I hope you get some grandma energy from this too. I know how lucky we are to have her, so please consider yourself adopted.
@@LaughCryDIY OK, Katy. You've done it now. I officially fell in love with you with "consider yourself adopted" pushing me over the line. I liked you a lot before, but that tipped me into love. Just precious 😍
I love it. The ladies on my mom's side of the family have lived well into their 90's & 100's. I remember my mom and I driving by my grandmas house when my mom swung the old Pontiac station wagon into the driveway to yell at her mom. My grandma (99 at the time) had climbed the old wooden ladder into the apricot tree. She was of course was wearing a dress, with knee high nylons and sensible shoes. My mother yelled "Mom get out of that tree!" Grandma who was picking apricots and putting them in her apron yelled back, "They're ripe." HaHa - my grandma lived to be 104, her two sisters 100 & 101. My aunt is currently 102! I'm gonna be around for a while. Thank your grandma for sharing!!!
@@LaughCryDIY HaHa - I don't think it is the water, but we did have a magnet on our refrigerator (harvest gold!) that said "The ornerier you are the longer God lets you live!" must be true :)
Amazing Grandma! What a sweetl and happy lady your Grandma is. I love her home, it is so joyful and her art work is absolutely beautiful! The linen cupboard is making me rethink my cupboard, I love the pastel colours of the towels🌼 Greetings from New Zealand Grandma ❤️
Ms. Eleanor is such a delight! What a blessing to be so vibrant & beautiful at 94! OMG, that garden, honey 🤌🏽. I see people getting these "grandma chic" room makeovers, and I'm like ok, cute...BUT THIS IS CHIC! I mean, those tea sets are fabulous, honey! Thanks for sharing her home & her amazing art.....& her towels with us.
Love this video!! Her artwork is magnificent!! Impressive how she has created the garden! She has kept everything in her home in beautiful condition. Your grandma is a jewel!
Your Grandma is adorable and her stuff rocks.Her art is wonderful and you are lucky...Bunny...I love him, too Those towels...Thanx for the best episode. Take care Bon 🌲🤸🦸🧚
am still in the garden because it is my goals (my garden is/was just grass, it is in the process of BECOMING FABULOUS) but the animal pot feet are totally a thing, my mother has a bunch that are turtles, but you can get them in loads of styles. Edit after watching the whole thing -- I LOVE grandma so much. The house is beautiful, the towels are gorgeous, the artwork is stunning. my heart is warm.
This tour was so cute! I love how you love your Grandmother so much and how proud of her you are. Her home is a true gem! To think she started painting in her late sixties or early seventies tells you it's never to late to start something new. How fun and Grandma is a great painter! Thank you for sharing Grandma and her beautiful home with us.
Katy…guess I am having one of those extra emotional days and this video just slayed me. Through tears I watched this with joy in my heart. I had such a similar relationship with my Grandmother…she was my person, infinitely patient and the definition of unconditional love. Thank you…❤
Oh, I love to hear this! Happy to share her with everyone, as she’s such an inspiration for aging gracefully. Shoutout to all the grandmas too. It’s such a special relationship.
Love your grandma. The linen closet, towels, pillowcases, and the rest of it are on point! Her art is amazing. She has inspired me, thank you so much for the tour ❤
So happy to see you focus on the linens. So many are handmade or embellished. Adding even more memories. And even if they aren’t your style they could be reworked into clothing, accessories or other crafts. Grandma is the greatest treasure in the home to behold. ❤ Thank you both for sharing.
I’m so glad she was up for doing this thing. I agree. A lifetime of collecting so many cool little things for us to enjoy. (But, seriously, I would go to war and court for those sheets.) 😂
Oh, how sweet! Your grandma is just 4 years older than my mom. I can't believe how together she still is!❤ And that house, what a treasure. How nice to inherit the plants and pots as a living reminder of her. ❤
Let's keep her at least 120 years ! My mother was like her Everything clean and in order I'm going to try harder, with my back issues , caused me not to keep up but, You Grandma, I'm so inspired 🎉Thank You!! ❤
I just started crying 😢😢. My greatest grandma had a bunny on her couch.And her closet had towels & old sheets too ❤❤. I’m in love with this video. Thank you so very much for sharing. You’re grandma is so beautiful.Her giggles in the background when you talked about the yellow 🗑️ 😂😂
No way! I’m so touched if this brought up memories. I’m really grateful we got a chance to film this so I can always look back. Much love to you and your grandma.
Thank you for sharing your grandma and her treasures! I see all these videos about nobody wanting the older generation’s stuff, but everything you highlighted is quality and will last another 50 plus years!! Stuff made today won’t last 10 years!
Beautiful talented Grandma you have. Her paintings are gorgeous! I love her home and all that is in it. I loved seeing you with your Grandma and seeing the love you both have for each other!
Oh my goodness this was like drinking a cup of sunshine! Your Grandma is beautiful and talented and her house is so lovely. I couldn't even keep up with all the things that I kept saying I love in her house.That tea cup set (pink and gold) would make me pass out in a store if I saw it-tea cup maniac that I am. I'm also a peacock maniac so the other set would having me picking myself up also. And the linen closet with all those vintage sheets and the colors combo's of the towels- goals! This vid had me so happy and worked up at the same time. I loved it! Thanks for sharing your Grandma and her lovely home with us Katy! You bring such joy!
Thank you for hanging with us-and understanding the delight of those tea cups. They are my fave thing ever. She was shy about me showing random things, but she needed to understand that we need the linen closet reveal!
Wow, your grandmother is an amazing artist and an amazing woman with an amazing house. God bless her and God bless you. I can see what a wonderful relationship you have with her cherish that always she seems like such a special woman. I miss my grandma so much 26 years ago at 100 years of age, blessings from Canada🙏💕👋🇨🇦
Elenor, you are fabulous!💃 Thank you for allowing us into your beautiful home🙏 I truly enjoyed it! I'd love to have a cup of tea with you! This was just lovely💞
Oh my goodness! Thank you for the tour. You are so lucky to have your grandma, she is one talented lady. I was stopped in my tracks when you showed her garden, I gasped and my dog looked at me like “what’s wrong mama?” Lol. Beautiful lady, beautiful home. Again, thank you for sharing.
What an incredible woman your grandmother is!!! She is beautiful inside and out. So talented, so lovely. Thank you for sharing her with us and thank you to Eleanor for opening her fabulous home to us. Enjoyed it so much! ❤
Loved all the diff areas of life . ❤❤❤ And how precious your grandma is and still looks young to be 94 can’t believe she’s that young age . May God grant her many more yrs .
I am so glad you are doing this! My mom remembered everything about her belongings and would tell me about them…I wish I’d recorder all of her stories. She died unexpectedly last September and I miss her so much!
Aw, so sorry to hear about your mom. ❤️ That’s exactly why I decided to film this on a whim. I wanted to preserve the memories while she’s still alive and with it.
Love the video. Love grandma and her beautiful home I’m from 1959 so I can relate to her beautiful home love the homes from that era I love everything Vintage ❤️✌️
Liebe Eleanor, vielen Dank für die Einladung in Ihr Haus. Es war wunderbar, etwas über Ihr Leben zu erfahren und ich liebe Ihr Schätze und all Ihre Pflanzen!. Meine Mutter hat auch eine "Sammeltassen"- Sammlung in Ihrem Büffetschrank! Mit besten Grüßen aus Berlin.
So beautiful and orderly, clean and about the garden; it's amazing The lady also is a talented artist. It's very pleasant to visit your granny and learn how to maintain a model house with her.
This is the first one of your videos I’ve watched, & I watched because of the title…….you had me at Mid Century! How wonderful thst your Grandmother kept everything, even the sheets & towels! I developed my love of Mid Century by following Laura Cauldwell here on UA-cam. She travels literally the world buying & picking vintage for her 1st Friday of each month on line sale. I enjoyed your video & will watch for the next one!
I would love to see the outside of this absolutely gorgeous gem. BTW your sweet grandmother looks so young for 94!!! God bless her with much health and longer life!!!
How is she 94?? She looks 30 years younger, she is so beautiful inside and out. What a talented painter she is, omg. Your grandma is wonderful, I love her.
Right?! She still drives! Such a goal for aging well.
@@LaughCryDIYqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqq
This episode made my day ! What a sweetie grandma is ❤
No kidding! I'm in my 60s, and she looks younger than I do!
Well Get Her! She must have seen so many things and changes especially for women in the workforce. She probably lives a strict health diet. The fact that she can live on her own is a miracle in itself. Most women and men her age would be living in a retirement home.
Wow .. she painted all those amazing pieces and didn’t start until her 60s? Holy cow!! That is incredible 😮😊❤
YES!!!! It’s one of my favorite things about her. Such aging goals. Always learning, reading, and doing new things.
That’s what I was thinking.
If it’s her grandmother’s tea cup, it’s much older.
Very sweet ❤
She’s the true definition of a Glamma.. she’s got epic taste and style
Glamma! Haha. I’ve never heard of that. She’ll love it.
Glamma 🎉🎉🎉🎉
Glammie, yes!!!
OH MY GOD!!!! What a beautiful lady your grandma is! A house full of treasures; the garden, the linen, the lamps, the china, the furniture!!! ❤❤❤ but above all, what an artist! Sending my greatest admiration to this incredible woman! ❤❤❤
Thank you! She’s so overwhelmed by the response from everybody. We’re so lucky she let me film it!
When she said Grandma is an artist I instantly said out loud I Knew It! Wonderfu garden! Love it! 94 she looks so elegant!
We’re lucky to have her.
I'm 30 seconds in and it's already my favorite video!!! Grandmas are the ultimate treasures!!! You are so lucky to still have her ❤ She looks amazing!
Aw yay! I’m so glad I thought to film this. She was such a good sport.
@@LaughCryDIY You will treasure having this years down the line.
Katy, thank you for this delightful video! The best thing we all would like to inherit from your lovely grandmother Eleanor is her poise, her elegance and her zest for life.
Absolutely. She is my template for aging and staying active and creative. ❤️
Wowww what a treasure trove of a beautiful home.....this home should be on HOMEWORTHY
Love Oma!!!, the bunny, the house, everything.❤❤❤❤
Violence Dank!!!!!

WOW. This is incredible. What is in the water on your side of the fence? Those are legends. I love hearing everybody’s memories.
@@LaughCryDIY HaHa - I don't think it is the water, but we did have a magnet on our refrigerator (harvest gold!) that said "The ornerier you are the longer God lets you live!" must be true :)
Amazing Grandma! What a sweetl and happy lady your Grandma is. I love her home, it is so joyful and her art work is absolutely beautiful! The linen cupboard is making me rethink my cupboard, I love the pastel colours of the towels🌼
Greetings from New Zealand Grandma ❤️
The pastel towels are true eye candy. It’s such a treat.
Ms. Eleanor is such a delight! What a blessing to be so vibrant & beautiful at 94! OMG, that garden, honey 🤌🏽. I see people getting these "grandma chic" room makeovers, and I'm like ok, cute...BUT THIS IS CHIC! I mean, those tea sets are fabulous, honey! Thanks for sharing her home & her amazing art.....& her towels with us.
Aw, thank you. We’re so lucky she let us in because it needed to be seen! I could never have all white furniture. But she‘s our clean queen. 😂
Love this video!! Her artwork is magnificent!! Impressive how she has created the garden! She has kept everything in her home in beautiful condition. Your grandma is a jewel!

What a wonderful relationship you and your grandmother have. She is so talented and has really is aging the way we all hope to. Loved his video ❤
She really is my aging #goals.
Grandma like her home is very Stunning😊
I agree!
Your grandma is a jewel. I loved touring her home.
So glad she let us do it
am still in the garden because it is my goals (my garden is/was just grass, it is in the process of BECOMING FABULOUS) but the animal pot feet are totally a thing, my mother has a bunch that are turtles, but you can get them in loads of styles.
Edit after watching the whole thing -- I LOVE grandma so much. The house is beautiful, the towels are gorgeous, the artwork is stunning. my heart is warm.
I gotta get those feet! They’re too cute. So glad to share grandma with everyone.
TY🥰 for sharing your beautiful Grandmother and her lovely home with us.
Eleanor you are amazing 🥰
Thanks for watching!
Your Grandma is so amazing and a talented painter! Can't believe she only started painting 20 years ago. That is a true inspiration!
Truly, she says best years of her life were 60s/70s.
This tour was so cute! I love how you love your Grandmother so much and how proud of her you are. Her home is a true gem! To think she started painting in her late sixties or early seventies tells you it's never to late to start something new. How fun and Grandma is a great painter! Thank you for sharing Grandma and her beautiful home with us.
Absolutely! She always picked up something new each decade. I swear it’s the secret to her longevity.
Katy…guess I am having one of those extra emotional days and this video just slayed me. Through tears I watched this with joy in my heart. I had such a similar relationship with my Grandmother…she was my person, infinitely patient and the definition of unconditional love. Thank you…❤
Oh, I love to hear this! Happy to share her with everyone, as she’s such an inspiration for aging gracefully. Shoutout to all the grandmas too. It’s such a special relationship.
Love your grandma. The linen closet, towels, pillowcases, and the rest of it are on point! Her art is amazing. She has inspired me, thank you so much for the tour ❤
So happy to hear! She’s inspired me so much too.
So happy to see you focus on the linens. So many are handmade or embellished. Adding even more memories. And even if they aren’t your style they could be reworked into clothing, accessories or other crafts. Grandma is the greatest treasure in the home to behold. ❤ Thank you both for sharing.
I’m so glad she was up for doing this thing. I agree. A lifetime of collecting so many cool little things for us to enjoy. (But, seriously, I would go to war and court for those sheets.) 😂
Wow! She came later in life to painting and she's a natural. x
Yes! Such an inspiration.
Oh, how sweet! Your grandma is just 4 years older than my mom.
I can't believe how together she still is!❤
And that house, what a treasure. How nice to inherit the plants and pots as a living reminder of her. ❤
Aw, glad to hear your mom is still here! We’re lucky grandma has been aging so well. And glad she let me film this.
Let's keep her at least 120 years ! My mother was like her Everything clean and in order
I'm going to try harder, with my back issues , caused me not to keep up but, You Grandma, I'm so inspired 🎉Thank You!! ❤
I just started crying 😢😢. My greatest grandma had a bunny on her couch.And her closet had towels & old sheets too ❤❤. I’m in love with this video. Thank you so very much for sharing. You’re grandma is so beautiful.Her giggles in the background when you talked about the yellow 🗑️ 😂😂
No way! I’m so touched if this brought up memories. I’m really grateful we got a chance to film this so I can always look back. Much love to you and your grandma.
Thank you for sharing your grandma's home with us!
So glad she was up for it!
how lovely to have g.daughter who appreciates her wonderful house and furniture. that’s 💕
We’re lucky to have her and her house
Thank you for sharing your grandma and her treasures! I see all these videos about nobody wanting the older generation’s stuff, but everything you highlighted is quality and will last another 50 plus years!! Stuff made today won’t last 10 years!
Totally! Like I said, I will fight everyone for the sheets and 60s wastebasket 😂
What a sweet and beautiful gramma!
Thank you. We love her.
I want to be grandma when I grow up
Her home is amazing, she's kept everything pristine, talented, beautiful. I would've never imagined she's 94 ❤❤❤
Me too! She is my aging goals.
Beautiful talented Grandma you have. Her paintings are gorgeous! I love her home and all that is in it. I loved seeing you with your Grandma and seeing the love you both have for each other!
I’m very glad she was up for filming this. It’s was so fun.
Oh my goodness this was like drinking a cup of sunshine! Your Grandma is beautiful and talented and her house is so lovely. I couldn't even keep up with all the things that I kept saying I love in her house.That tea cup set (pink and gold) would make me pass out in a store if I saw it-tea cup maniac that I am. I'm also a peacock maniac so the other set would having me picking myself up also. And the linen closet with all those vintage sheets and the colors combo's of the towels- goals! This vid had me so happy and worked up at the same time. I loved it! Thanks for sharing your Grandma and her lovely home with us Katy! You bring such joy!
Thank you for hanging with us-and understanding the delight of those tea cups. They are my fave thing ever. She was shy about me showing random things, but she needed to understand that we need the linen closet reveal!
Wow, your grandmother is an amazing artist and an amazing woman with an amazing house. God bless her and God bless you. I can see what a wonderful relationship you have with her cherish that always she seems like such a special woman. I miss my grandma so much 26 years ago at 100 years of age, blessings from Canada🙏💕👋🇨🇦
Wow. 100 years! What an achievement. Shoutout to all the grandmas out there. Thanks for watching ❤️
You have such a sweet, beautiful grandma. She is absolutely amazing with painting and gardening.
I feel very lucky. ❤️
Elenor, you are fabulous!💃 Thank you for allowing us into your beautiful home🙏 I truly enjoyed it! I'd love to have a cup of tea with you! This was just lovely💞
Thanks for visiting. So glad I convinced her to do it. ❤️
Oh my goodness! Thank you for the tour. You are so lucky to have your grandma, she is one talented lady. I was stopped in my tracks when you showed her garden, I gasped and my dog looked at me like “what’s wrong mama?” Lol. Beautiful lady, beautiful home. Again, thank you for sharing.
Aww, she’ll love to hear that. I’m so glad we got to film it to have record forever.
Your grandma is adorable, I loved how the things in her house took me back to my childhood memories, especially the linens!!❤
I love to hear that. It was so fun to film with her.
I love your grandmothers house! And also that as a true elder millennial you referred to the 60’s as 40 years ago 😂
I know! I realized that too. In my mind it is the year 2000 forever. Hahah
Thank you for introducing us this lady. She is an art de vivre specialist
What an incredible woman your grandmother is!!! She is beautiful inside and out. So talented, so lovely. Thank you for sharing her with us and thank you to Eleanor for opening her fabulous home to us. Enjoyed it so much! ❤
We’re so lucky to have her (and convince her to hang out on the internet).
Such a beautiful place, reminds me of my childhood. Loved that era Lovely grandma you have, she looks fabulous!
Thanks for hanging with us. I love that people are enjoying this.
She’s such an incredible artist! Wow!
Loved all the diff areas of life . ❤❤❤ And how precious your grandma is and still looks young to be 94 can’t believe she’s that young age . May God grant her many more yrs .
I know! I can’t believe she’s 94. We have to get her secrets.
THANK YOU, GRANDMA!!!! This makes me wish I had done something like this with my grandparents.
I hadn’t planned to, but realized this was the perfect time. So glad I did.
I am so glad you are doing this! My mom remembered everything about her belongings and would tell me about them…I wish I’d recorder all of her stories. She died unexpectedly last September and I miss her so much!
Aw, so sorry to hear about your mom. ❤️ That’s exactly why I decided to film this on a whim. I wanted to preserve the memories while she’s still alive and with it.
I’m just gonna keep commenting. You both are so dang adorable and I’m glad you let her know how much you love her style!
Haha. Keep the comments coming. I’m so glad we got to do this one since she was shy at first.
Love the video. Love grandma and her beautiful home I’m from 1959 so I can relate to her beautiful home love the homes from that era I love everything Vintage ❤️✌️
Vintage is the best ❤️
Liebe Eleanor, vielen Dank für die Einladung in Ihr Haus. Es war wunderbar, etwas über Ihr Leben zu erfahren und ich liebe Ihr Schätze und all Ihre Pflanzen!. Meine Mutter hat auch eine "Sammeltassen"- Sammlung in Ihrem Büffetschrank! Mit besten Grüßen aus Berlin.
She will be thrilled to read this 😘❤️
OMG😳 I gasped at the headboard🙌👌
It’s a dream!
Gramma’s house is so cool. She seems like a pretty cool lady as well.
We’re very lucky to have her
So beautiful and orderly, clean and about the garden; it's amazing The lady also is a talented artist. It's very pleasant to visit your granny and learn how to maintain a model house with her.

Lovely, Eleanor! How young and alive she is, bravo Katy for this beautiful video!!!❤
😘 I am so glad I decided to film it.
This is the first one of your videos I’ve watched, & I watched because of the title…….you had me at Mid Century! How wonderful thst your Grandmother kept everything, even the sheets & towels! I developed my love of Mid Century by following Laura Cauldwell here on UA-cam. She travels literally the world buying & picking vintage for her 1st Friday of each month on line sale. I enjoyed your video & will watch for the next one!
Ooh. I’ll have to check her out! I am so grateful my grandma kept so many beautiful pieces that will last long after both of us.
"towels, oh my God" haha adorable 😍
Hahahha. They needed to be seen!!!!
I would love to see the outside of this absolutely gorgeous gem. BTW your sweet grandmother looks so young for 94!!! God bless her with much health and longer life!!!
Thank you! She is an aging inspiration.
PLEASE do a diy episode repainting the gnomes!
We have to!!!!
Beautiful home, and beautiful art! It's obvious she loves life.
She’s such an inspiration
