Home office room tour

[@flippinpages6550]

When I learned to sew in high school we started with an apron, then our second project was an a line skirt. I made all my clothes for school trying to copy outfits out of Vogue magazine. In my 20's I lived off the grid and used a treadle. I still have it in case our electricity goes out. LOL Then when I got older I spent years making quilts and I taught quilting to kids in 6th - 8th grade (11 years old - 14). Now that I am retired I am doing a project of making doll clothes for a Christmas Toys for Tots donation. I have loved sewing all my years and it has served me well. I just purchased a serger sewing machine and I am loving it. Your house is lovely.

[@DaintyDiaries]

Aw wow Tamara, You are such an inspiration! That sounds amazing. I want to get my treadle machine working again. Bring it back to life. Thank you so much for watching my video x

[@AThousandWords]

Love the feminine, homely feel. You've inspired me to do a little home decorating, I haven't done any in ages but I might go tweak something.

[@DaintyDiaries]

Thank you so much for watching! Nothing beats giving a room a freshen up x

[@kellybennett9240]

I love your honesty in this video. Not everyone’s work space is completely tidy you’re right. I watch some KZbin beauty influencers show off their “glam rooms” and everything is so perfect - you know it’s not how it is daily! There’s no way. I wish people were a little more honest - there would be a lot less competition to keep up. Thanks for doing this video. By the way - you’re the same age as my daughter and I think you are just so adorable! ❤️❤️

[@glendacox6540]

I love the singer! The bird wallpaper is heavenly. And....I love your painted chair color! Also, Singer could send you the proper belt. They are very helpful.

[@twosisterscleaning5918]

Everything is just precious ...... And you are adorable , your energy and excitement to create your cozy home is an inspiration. Charlotte

[@ItsTammy]

I absolutely love your sense of style! My goodness! So pretty, fresh, bright and absolutely stunning! The pretty vintage feel is definitely something I adore! Very inspiring!

[@DaintyDiaries]

Aw thank you, thank you so much for wathcing xxx

[@andreatherese1099]

So adorable! I love how you have taken your home and made each little space completely your own.

[@DaintyDiaries]

Thanks so much for watching Andrea x you are so kind

[@mandyjolil6069]

OMG my mother had a singer sawing machine brought back beautiful memories of her thank you for that I'm in my 50,s I love you channel x

[@debbie38381]

I love this room decor. What a great space to be creative in, I would be in there all day making jewelry if I had my room that pretty, bright, and organized.

[@DaintyDiaries]

Thank you so much for watching Debbie x It makes such a difference having the room bright and spacious x

[@4starlight]

OH my gosh. This is the same sawing massive that my late granny used to have when I was little. I'll never forget that sound... so many memories.. 🙄

[@DaintyDiaries]

Aw, I love that it brought back a memory, Thanks so much for watching! x

[@Jo-ww5ei]

So lovely. Watching your videos makes any bad day wonderful. You're such a lovely person. Love the beautiful design. XX

[@DaintyDiaries]

Thank you so much for watching Jo, You are so kind and I really appreciate you commenting x

[@wandasnowflake_5039]

Omg I love the chip mug so much

[@Poppy-]

Hello Catherine, it's really nice to see your entire office. As it is not the same in a static picture (I thought it was next to the bedroom, not to the sitting room). So, for sewing, I did my own prom dress 20 something years ago. Princess seams and all. It's much easier than putting together some of that IKEA furniture 😉

[@purpleshoespurp3462]

I could hardly sew when I had my girls and I wanted to make Halloween costumes so I got a pattern to make a dress and was so surprised how easy it was to do. Just get yourself a easy pattern and go for it you will shock yourself how well you can do it. KZbin is always a click away for help reading a pattern or learning how to make sleeves. Can't wait to see what you make. I can just see all the vintage inspired creations you will come up with.

[@DaintyDiaries]

Okay, you have convinced me! I am going to give it a go! I am going to start with a simple dress pattern x

[@lifewithklc]

I loooove that vintage sewing machine.

[@cocorhys-jones8815]

You've done this room up lovely. You're style is spot on.

[@DaintyDiaries]

Thanks so much for watching xxx

[@donnatorres7145]

I love how bright and cheery your home is, love it!

[@adamkelly3805]

the belt on your singer is made from leather and over time it stretches. you can shorten it slightly ,punch a new hole in it and hook it back together. only take a small amount off at a time until it feels right,

[@DaintyDiaries]

Aw, thank you so much, Adam, for this tip. I am going to try it x Thanks for watching xxx

[@darlenecuker9711]

What a sweet craft room! Thank you for all the inspiration.

[@DaintyDiaries]

I am so glad you like it x

[@MickiiR]

[@k.m.j.coutinho4390]

My late maternal grandmother had one of those sewing machines. I've tried it and liked it but I love the modern ones much better. Dress making isn't hard. Good luck!

[@suziel6588]

Came across your channel tonight...enjoyed the three I watched...your home is like my grandmother's was...wish my daughter was more like you and me...sometimes I think it's just the old sole we inherited...look forward to catching up and seeing more

[@DaintyDiaries]

Thanks so much for watching! Yes, I definitely think its our old souls. Maybe when she gets older as when I was younger I was more into modern thing and then as I grew as a person I started to love it x

[@DaintyDiaries]

Thanks so much for watching and subscribing Gina x

[@marymorrow590]

The project I am currently working on at the moment is my brother's bathroom. I am going to wallpaper the walls just to cover them up lots of dings. I found a simple white paper with a small geometric design on it and it looks good I will share when it is all complete. All the bathroom vanity, toilet, and bathtub are white I will add color with the accessories, I will be adding lots of blue and grays.

[@DaintyDiaries]

Oh, that sounds Fab! Yes colour with accessories is great because then you can change them if you get bored.

[@NonnaBethsCrafts2Be]

LOVE your kitty

[@kindred1113]

What kind of cat is blondie???? I would love to have one like that.....MINDY

[@belvadalidowich859]

I would so LOVE to do my house like yours but my husband would hate it. He doesn't care to see that much feminine. A touch here and there is his limit. So When I see yours, I just fall in love because when your husband doesn't share the same likes, you have to compromise.
