Love your story and you and your mum should be very proud of your beautiful home, ❤

That television ruins it!!

Fascinating content. My mother was a woman of the forties and she was a force to be reckoned with.

Lunch made me kinda sad

How are people so evil to small creatures, I will never understand it.

Great content.

Lovely..I can see some stuff I had years ago x

I really, really love your story, your home, your attitude, and also, your dress is gorgeous❤

As someone who can’t eat wheat or potatoes due to allergies I wouldn’t survive in another era because my body is too dumb. I also am fully aware I’d starve if there’s ever some catastrophe

Thank you for your delightful presentation- looking forward to watching more! And your kitty is ADORABLE ❤

I feel like there is a huge difference between traditional wives/homemakers and trad wives. I am a traditional homemaker in that I stay home, cook from scratch (cause it’s cheap), and clean but I also handle all the finances, as was common in the past, and fall more naturally into the head of household role. Also, the idea of submitting to your husband is so gross and my husband said it sounded so lonely to him. I think trad wives are playing what they think tradition looks like without really thinking about how people in the past were just as multifaceted as we are now. If you read and watch actual testimony from the mid century, there’s a lot of men who helped with housework and said their wives were head of their household. There’s a lot more nuance than we like to remember and I think most average 50s wives would think trad wives were pretty weird.

Lovely!! Thank you!

I'm currently starting the search for a house I can afford and so can totally relate to your estate agent horror stories! Thank you for sharing this, it's so comforting to know that people have done it before me so I can do it too!

I wish we could refinance in the U.S. they way you did. However, here, we are penalized for refinancing; they actually ADD years (& sometimes, interest rates) to your loan. Plus, charge thousands for the "privilege" of doing it.😢

I've been a WW2 re-enactor for over 30 years and I love seeing videos like this showing the homefront.

Wonderful story!

Your house is absolute beautiful, Hannah!! I’m currently making over my room and I love that classic 1940s look, and I have to say, I take a lot of inspiration from your home!💗

Beautifully said, thank you 👏🏼

Av got my great grandmother blue bread bin like that I love it

Housework before work is essential. I can't leave my hiuse messy.not even a dirty cup.

I've never left my house without making my bed. Tidy bed makes a house.im 50. I wear a robe all rhe time. Just the way I live.

That was a fascinating story! You're a very good speaker, very eloquent and engaging. 😁

Have you tried a setting lotion or flaxseed? I can’t recall if it was water from soaked flaxseed or flax oil, almost certain it is the water now that I think of it. Mist it on before pinning.

It is so amazing to hear you say that you should decorate for yourself only!! I moved into my own home last Nov and I'm still stuck in renters brain! I hope to have a home that I love as much as you do yours one day. ALSO you have pigeons!!! amazing!!!

Soo good, interesting and really does give you perspective.

I really can't get over how the cooker was only £16- people sell 1980s ones for about £100 as it is!

From a tiny child, I have always loved patterns, wallpapers and coloured walls, but my mother laid the law down in the house and went for those hideous white blank walls. My Dad painted our hallway a lovely airforce blue when we went away and mother went nuts. As a 6 year old the begging to keep the lovely walls Dad had spent ages on fell on deaf ears. Poor Dad was made to paint it over with that, yes you got it, that hideous cold white. Years of rented properties means I've rarely lived with the colourful walls I want; even now they are shabby ugly white. Now, I'm allergic to wall paints so it'll be a good while before I can get the funds for all the wallpaper I need and find someone to do the job.

You are soooooooo RIGHT!! My hubs and I found a 1920 Craftsman for sale by owner. It has only had 2 owners plus us. We have renovated for 6 years now and it will be paid off in 1 1/2 years, no mortgage. It's my dream home and I've made it 100% ours. Full of antiques and vintage. You step in another time in my home as well.

stencils were popular in the 1980’s, the patterns were nostalgic for an earlier time. In the US the patterns like yours were based on Pennsylvania Dutch (German) designs.

lmao, no. as a teenager, kids are constantly out.

Great information! I think you highlighted one privilege you were blessed with and that’s your Nan and her wonderful connections to her community that helped you find this great house! It’s a wonderful way to find the perfect house for you to put all that hard work into.

What a very cute house! So very 1940s indeed, down to its appointments and décor. And yes, definitely install a sink in the upstairs WC.

Thankyou for sharing your story. I actually really hate watching channels like you mentioned because it all seems so staged and full of BS! I'm a single Mum of 4, have been homeless with my then young children and did whatever I could to make sure they had what they needed. They are all adults now and I couldn't be more proud of them. My youngest lives with me as she has disabilities but she is an insanely talented artist. 6.5 years ago I too was able to purchase my first home. Yes I had to move to a semi rural area but that was fine as we run a small sanctuary. We also have 2 on line stores and this keeps us very busy. I LOVE old things, always have and my home was built in the 1850s, so I've decided to decorate it like it would've been back then and yes that means old everything. I even managed to find an antique loo 😁. Our town is now expanding and people are building homes so in a few years we will be selling to move to a larger property. But I'll be able to pay out my loan and buy my future home outright. We got really lucky with this place. Hugs 🤗 Liana from Australia 🦘

The cat doesn't know what era it is. The look on its face. (͡๏̯͡๏)

The carved star on your house is for protection. 😊❤

Was it the intention to look dead by dinner?

Really good video. Thanks

I do ration months, have a 1940 s bedroom, and do the heating rations. X

Would like to see what make up you used.x

Loved this.x

It’s great to hear a lovely inspiring story of grafting, clearing mortgage debt and creating your own personal sanctuary. Bless Rosa, your grandparents and you and your mum.

I have that tin, I put loose tea in it.xx❤

The ceiling roses were off centre to stop the pendant light casting shadows of you onto the curtain.

I'm really inspired by your channel. I too own a 1940s home in Australia. I am getting lots of decorating ideas from you. You have a lovely welcoming home. It's friendly and cosy like a warm hug. I'm hoping to achieve this in my home ☺️ Thanks for sharing your story 🏡

Your mum sounds an amazing woman ❤❤

I appreciate that even though you are young, you like vintage. Thank you.

I love the fact you invite all the non normies to listen in and enjoy this podcast and I’m excited to be here 😊🥳.

Your home is lovely!

Hats off to you and your mum.😊

I know how you feel Hannah,been through crap.still standing,looking at buying our own house,then we won't have the rent raised,or sold.must feel safe.😊
