Her home is so much fun. I think she did a nice job, some things were a bit too kitschy but hey, I still liked it. She has a great respect for older things and understands that just because something is “old” doesn’t mean it has to be thrown out.
That was a fun little trip! I enjoyed all of her decor and the way she put it together. She seems like a person that has true appreciation for all things vintage.❤️
That is cool! And 1950’s appliances still working. Good luck with a 2020’s appliance working 70 years later! Good luck with 2020’s appliance working 3 years later!!
That's so awesome! Anything but the sterile undefined malaise of today's tastes. My dream too has always been this idea, but with 1930's art-deco styling, although I LOVE the '50's too.
Me and my friends we were born in the 1950s, were now in our 70s, but we loved the styles from our youth. Many of us collect those decor items, from that time period. One friend grew up in the fabulous Mid Century Modern 1950s home, and moved back in when her folks passed away. It looks like a time capsule, there is a very "Jetson-esque" kitchen with a floating central counter with a built-in range, and oven is elevated and on another wall. There is a 2 sided flagstone chimney, with a glass insert in the fire box, so you can see into the living room, or vice-versa see into the kitchen from the living room. The house is modestly sized and a single floor, but there is the built-in intercom system, so one can talk to family members, there are speakers and receivers in each room wired to a central console in the dining room with a swing-out microphone. Pastel 50s linoleum, and wall colors, and counter tops with tiny boomer-rang motif patterns across the surface.
@@MrSloika Thanks, I was already aware of that. I think they started to re-issue a whole pallet of colors & patterns as early as the late 1980s & early 90s . I was building non-functional, Art furniture in the mid 1980s for exhibitions in art galleries. My furniture had a 1950s retro look to it. There used to be countertop materials stores, in the USA,....where sometimes you could find unused original issue Boomerang patterned Formica™. I never got to install any in my house,...but I had odds and ends of the material, in my studio. That I incorporated into my art work .
Love it. We also have a mid century home and chose to decorate with vintage /older pieces. Its a refuge from the crazy world and feel like we are in our grandparents home.
Beautiful home. I wish we could go back to the 50s. It was the greatest time of my life. As for her pink hair, I never saw anyone with pink hair in the fifties.
I’ve always had a similar dream to build and live in a time capsule home, mine will be based more around 90s/early 2000s. Lots of hunter green, seafoam carpets, decorative wallpapers from that era. All of my appliances, electronics and furniture will be from that era as well with no modern shortcuts. I might have just been born in ‘99 but something about that era has always felt so comfortable to me and maybe that’s why. It’s the environment I grew up in and hold that nostalgia for.❤️
I recognize a few knick knacks (eg. the fake grapes) that my grandparents had. Her house is like a movie or tv set! I wonder if she has a couple of 50's cars to park in the carport. Really interesting.
01:33 my Nana has that same exact oven that’s in the was but it’s green and pretty much that same stove top to she even has the black tin covers that go over each of the burners still lol
Dude, try everything but the 2 prong and fuse box. My house save for a few areas where there are nuclear age or older additions and where inline splices were replaced by junctioned romex solely for extra circuits, we have all original K&T. I live every day like it's 1930, and grounding was a joke. Thankfully, ours was declared ok by a professional because of the craftsmanship of the depression.
😅Well done! I’m curious to know what her line of work is and what her thoughts are on MCM homes in regards to architecture. It would incredible to see all her furniture in an Eichler home.
Good to see a kitchen with walls, a door and no stupid, giant island. There's too much kitsch for my liking, but it's something different from the ticky-tacky sub-divisions.
Her house looks like a house from TV in the 50s. Not really what most normal people's houses looked like back then. Imagine calling the news because you are into antiques.
That's strange, I don't remember any women with pink hair back then, a color that burns the retinas any day for sure! 😵 WWCPS? (what would Charles Phoenix say? 🤔)
Homes from the late 50s to the mid 60s were more modern than the garish over done homes of today, I secretly laugh when I see many of todays kitchens, because, it was what my parents thought was stylish. To be fair there are outliers that are stunningly stylish without all the fake heavy wood work. And lets not forget, Danish modern from the 50s and 60s command princely sums due to their timeless simple modernity.
Love when people make their homes/spaces their own.
I do too. We shouldn’t live with trends, but what we love.
@@sandyheredia3027 Agreed!
Right, instead of thinking about what will get them the best ROI when they flip the place.
@@sandyheredia3027 isnt that what everyone does? and this 50s kitch is also a trend. hang out with any rockabilly peeps and its all over
Nothing makes me cringe more then hearing, it’s trendy 😬

A 21st-century refuge for time-travelers from the '50s.
I’d say refuge from this time period, PERIOD 😅❤
Beautiful home!! More style than most people have. You open the door in other people’s houses and it’s like an episode from Hoarders.
Or the opposite - where it is completely sterile and bare, like no one even lives there. That always gives me the creeps too.
@@jacquiandp-dog7755This ladies home is beautiful though ❤
Love it! I did the same thing to my home in Austin. Complete with a 58 Ford to drive.
That was a fun little trip! I enjoyed all of her decor and the way she put it together. She seems like a person that has true appreciation for all things vintage.❤️
As a lover of Vintage and Antiques, Rochelle's Home is a well-curated Dream. 🖤
That is cool! And 1950’s appliances still working. Good luck with a 2020’s appliance working 70 years later! Good luck with 2020’s appliance working 3 years later!!
Planned obsolescence
That’s why I recently paid a lot of money for a Speed Queen laundry set as I’m tired of cheaper sets breaking down. You get what you pay for.
That's so awesome! Anything but the sterile undefined malaise of today's tastes. My dream too has always been this idea, but with 1930's art-deco styling, although I LOVE the '50's too.
That is pretty awesome. I'm genuinely happy that she was able to make this happen for her.

The 50s boomerang laminates are now so popular that Formica has brought it back into production.

I love her aesthetic! The pink hair, the Gothic dressing room, the pink kitchen appliances...very cool. I wish she was my next-door neighbor
It's very cool to be able to pick a decade in time and live accordingly. This was a lot of fun. Thank you for this tour.
Good for you, congratulations on your beautiful home snd spectacular collection ❤
Love it! 👍🏽
Everything you selected it tasteful!
Great for a home made movie
Fabulous!! I love it!!
Love her color scheme in the interior, her kitchen with the built-ins, is to die for. Cool!
Love this home. I always loved all things mid century modern.
I applaud this woman. Well done, ma'am.
so beautiful they put it together so well I don t thing she missed out its like she belongs in that era.
Amazing items in that house
What a lovely space!
Beautiful home. I wish we could go back to the 50s. It was the greatest time of my life.
As for her pink hair, I never saw anyone with pink hair in the fifties.
If that was my bedroom, I'd have a 1960 Mercury station wagon in there, as my bed

That tiki room is the best! I wonder what her favourite 50's cocktail is.
This totally brightens my heart I love it. I am so happy you live in your dream.❤❤❤
It's beautiful! I absolutely love it and wish house's still looked like this
Awesome, i have always wanted to furnish a room from the 60s
I recognize a few knick knacks (eg. the fake grapes) that my grandparents had. Her house is like a movie or tv set! I wonder if she has a couple of 50's cars to park in the carport. Really interesting.
Awesome 👏
01:33 my Nana has that same exact oven that’s in the was but it’s green and pretty much that same stove top to she even has the black tin covers that go over each of the burners still lol
What a beautiful job she's done. Brava!
Her tiki room was very cool
I love it. I love originality and I love all things vintage. ❤️
To be fair, 50s is a good look, i mean you can have 50s furniture and wallpaper and still own an iphone there is no negative side :)
That's so cool
LOVE LOVE LOOOOOOOOOVE IT!!!!!
So awesome
Literally my dream home
I have always wanted this decor, I have some things from that time, but never the whole look, I love it
SO COOL!!!!!
This should be a trend... Lets call it
"Reverse renovation"
❤Love itand that comfy couch❤😊
This is a girl after my own heart!
Love it
I put a flat screen into a 80s TV console because my 85 year old mother refused to hang a flat screen on the wall.
You have to appreciate humans like this
LOVE IT.
I absolutely adore this 😍
Love this home ❤❤
I love her home
NOBODY had pink hair in the 50's. She blew it.
What a DREAM!
I love it! 🥰
There is something quite comforting about American style 1950s homes! Here in the uk they wernt so nice lookn but the American ones are lovely!
Complete it with a 57 Chevy Bel Air! Two tone!
ITS AMAZING I LOVE IT
I wonder if she kept the two prong outlets and fuse box in that house lol.
Even my parents still have the tube TV and antenna on the roof but she doesn't even want to have that.
Dude, try everything but the 2 prong and fuse box.

I love this! ❤
Love it!
Love it!!! 👍
This is way cool.
I would love to build the Leave it to Beaver Home. The second iconic one on 211 Pine Street, not 45 Mapleton Drive. Yes I'm obsessed with the show😁
Power to her
How beautiful
I love it 😊
😅Well done! I’m curious to know what her line of work is and what her thoughts are on MCM homes in regards to architecture. It would incredible to see all her furniture in an Eichler home.
That's neat.
Love it 😀
I truly believe she is an incarnation from the 50s.
Beautiful ❤
LOVE 💕 IT!
I don't recall any 50's housewife with neon pink hair
❤❤❤❤❤che fortuna avere una casa così
Oops, wonder if she realizes the pink hair definitely was not a 50's style?
If I did the same thing, I would do a 1990s and 2000s style home
They never say how much it cost or where the money came/comes from.
I love it
Where do you find so many 50s items, so busy
Happy wife, happy life...
Feel like I’m watching a Fallout 4 cutscene.
Cool
Good to see a kitchen with walls, a door and no stupid, giant island. There's too much kitsch for my liking, but it's something different from the ticky-tacky sub-divisions.
Yeah...... ummmmmm...... this is actually not the norm for the 1950s home. Also, a good amount of it is actually 70s.
Cool 😎 👍😜
The house is amazing and she is stunning
Her house looks like a house from TV in the 50s. Not really what most normal people's houses looked like back then. Imagine calling the news because you are into antiques.
So cool!! However, there was no pink hair back in those days😍😍
Wonderful, everything was better in the 50's, Can we see her car? I was born in the 50's, Rochelle can have me
where's her mr. handy robot?
That's strange, I don't remember any women with pink hair back then, a color that burns the retinas any day for sure!
😵
WWCPS? (what would Charles Phoenix say? 🤔)
Well, I would say, if it makes her happy, have pink hair
She has a 50's museum but clearly doesn't live the lifestyle. "Netflix" goes with the pink hair.
Wow love it all! She looks like a doll love her look too gorgeous 💖 💕 from Australia 🦘🐊
Definitely needs a vintage fridge.
Harrison Butkers type of woman 🤣🤣🤣
Its beautiful
I wonder what She does for job?
I guess its expensive
Good that she met guy who share that with her
She is Nora from fallout 4💀
