Acorn coffee can't be good. I have had chicory coffee as well. They sell it in grocery stores in the southern US. NOT good.

I’m going to try it! I wash my dishes the same way….

Here in 2025, where this guide has once agaon helped me starch my shirt bib and cuffs.

loved Your scarf, i'm making mine but with 44 Stitches. ❤

Hi Constance. Was researching the Essex, I have two and intend giving them to my twin granddaughters, and came across your sweet video! ❤

love that look over the glasses when purple was caught by the spider

❤found you and was curious because I loved Tom Baker. I am not a knitter but like watching others do it. I crochet, and might try your color scheme.😅

This, my dear, was pure delight.

you all need to singer sewing machine oil all your essex hand machines well , makes them super smooth to use . !!

I'm plus sized and have difficulty with getting waistbands to stay flat and not crumple up when I move, a faced waistband would solve that problem completely!!! This was very enjoyable company while making a panto costume (my first professional job after my masters (it still excites me to think about)) P. S Apologise for for being late to the party it has been in my 'to watch' list since it was published. Very glad I finally made it.

Thank you for sharing views of the house and its gardens, as well as your ruffs and getting ready for the living-history event. This event looks so worthwhile!

If I were to do this, I think I'd have eight fingers and two thumbs with multiple burns.

Delightful. Thank you for another cheering video.

I tried the first recipe and the water and wax separated. Is there a way to fix this?

I need to live there. The masonry on the house and grounds needs to be powerwashed and treated and the gardens need attention.

The grounds are beautiful!

How interesting Constance! Tyfs💗🇨🇦

What fun! Thank you for the look.

Absolutely Amazing!!! Love it!!

I saw in a documentary about Athelhampton, that it's now entirely run by Solar and is self sufficient which is incredible!

🥰 Lovely lovely place! & looking forward to further «Who-olly» 🧶adventures (hahaha I know a poor poor attempt but 🤷🏼‍♀️😂!)

Thank you for that, I used to live close enough to Athelhampton House to visit fairly often, such a lovely place .

Beautiful. Thank you

Nice house and none of the inconvenience I came to associate with Dr Who which they seemed to be filming every time i wanted to post a letter quickly before a client arrived and they tried to stop me scurry up one of our cobblestone streets because their 'work' was more important than mine. The penalty for living in a photogenic old town in South Wales

So. Much. Fun. To Watch! Eeee! 🤓💜🥰

Beautiful place.

Thank you.

This place looks lovely!!

(that's not Patience, that's Constance) (😂 I'll let myself out)

Wow. I never expected this. Thank you.

A goffering iron.....now theres a tricky job.

I bet they had fewer teenage pregnancies back then.

Oh wow really!? As long as there were the live musicians playing 🎶I wouldn't mind. 🩷

❤ Nice Job

Thank you.

Thank you.

How do you keep skirts from riding up? Anytime I wear petticoats, the skirt rides up

Well now, that was great fun to watch, if nothing else!

As many as one wants, Miss Constance, you are so right. I solved that. lol.

I thought wool rolled in cakes was easier to knit? Those wooden hand crank machines ( sorry don't know what it is called) are so cool. 🩷🐑🎶

After Victorian what would you say your favorite style/ era is?

The two limiting factors are how warm it is that day and how many petticoats you own.

How many can you wear? As many as you own.

A little late to the ironing party here, but it was great fun. When I was growing up, in the 1960s-70s, my mother had an electric iron without steam. She had a bottle…it looked like an old soda pop bottle, with a cork drilled in the middle to admit a hollow tube topped with a rounded metal top with holes, like a salt shaker lid. You filled the bottle with water, popped in the cork, then used the water to sprinkle the clothes…hence its name, the sprinkler. Mom would sprinkle each garment to be pressed, roll it into a tube so the dampness worked its way through, and put them aside in our wicker laundry basket. Then she’d iron each one. She also had a pressing cloth, a large square of percale white cotton, that would be laid over delicates before ironing so as to protect them from scorching. I still sprinkle linen and use a pressing cloth.
