The 60’s were an awesome time! I loved the innocent times I grew up in. I was 7 when we entered the 60’s and I rode my bicycle all over our neighborhood and we played till the street lights came on! I was 10 when we got our first color tv only a few shows were actually in color my mom was alive and fun and remember exactly the day and where I was at when President Kennedy was assassinated !!we made my first trip to Disneyland we drove in our station wagon from Oklahoma to California without air conditioning in our car!!!!! to see my big brother who was in the Marines he was still Bubby to me not Sgt!! I had my first date in 1969 at 16 years old!!! It was a great time to grow up ❤❤❤❤
That sounds wonderful
It was a wonderful time to grow up!❤❤❤
I was born 1960 Dec. 60's and 70's good hippy times in fashion excellent music and love was free lol ❤😊
Think we are same age!
Hi Gail, I'm right there with you! I was 8 when the calendar flipped to 1960. My dad was in the military for 34 years, so I was an Air Force brat.
I wouldn't trade my childhood for anything - magical. ❤
The 70s by far was the best. Best music. As teens in 1975, 1976 we would go out on Friday night dancing and hearing all the live bands. Racing cars and hanging at the speed parts shop. Drive in theaters, all night Diners, and not a care in the world. We all worked, made pretty good money, rents were cheap, gas was cheap and lots of friends. No cell phones, no computers, just a rotary phone and a skylark car. Good times.
That sounds like a blast
The best times! Kids nowadays have no idea.
I too, grew as teens in 1973-1978 ( graduated in 1977), and listened to live bands, going to concerts, drive in theatres, etc. , rotary phones, first car was a 66 mustang! And your right, not a care in the world!
Truly, I had a LARGE 3 bedroom flat at age 19 that I rented for $150. 00 per month n I allowed roommates to stay with me n got them in college with me. About 3 or 4 years ago that same lot ONLY was selling for $ 50,000.00. The land DID NOT CHANGE, THE LICATION DID NOT CHANGE- GREED CHANGED. Some young people DO NOT EVEN KNOW that there was a time back then that there Was NO'😮 WORD CALLED HOMELESSNESS'!! There was a place called skid row in a few big towns where generally then alcoholics who had them given up lived outside.
@@donnaplumridge9769 68 Mustang! It was SAFE in general then too. Being from the country when I moved to a big city, I still tried to be by dark. Had to catch busses n walk then. Would walk about a mile from where the bus route cutoff. Walked fast to get there by dark
I thought you were doing a lot with just your sister-in-law’s house. Can’t believe you are starting school, renovating family room entertainment centre and fixing a plumbing problem as well as putting out two videos a week 😮wow❤
I really appreciate that you understand how much work that really is lol. Thank you.
And with children👏👏👏
I love the idea of thrifting furniture. We relocated to a small Alaska town that's at the end of a long highway, and there's no furniture stores nearby, but we do have 2 thrift stores. We were able to furnish our apartment with pieces we found at the thrift stores and local FB marketplace. Even our dishes and small appliances are for the most thrift finds. Living in a place that is reliant on the community reusing things makes me feel good.
The 70s was awesome for me. It was the wonder years
70's and 80s were my best fun years but they are all good even now at nearly 73 any day above ground is good!! Love to see you modelling your thrift clothes you always look good in them too.
That's a great perspective thank you!
My mom had a subscription to Southern Living magazine for many years, and always got the annuals. She actually made the cake with the gingerbread men and big red bow on the cover of that 1996 edition at 11:00. When we moved her into assisted living a few years ago, she "autographed" one of the annuals for each of her grandkids and great nieces and nephews in the year corresponding to their birth year. They were so happy to have a special momento from her that will always remind them of what a great cook she was.
What a fun idea!
Was in the fifties and sixties. What a great time
I like it when you model the clothes you find at the thirft stores.
I will be sure to do that next time
I agree I like both thrifting and clothes so it’s a win win❤..do u pick up shoes as well?
Same!!!
I'm here for whatever you want to do, girl! Try on clothes? Yes! Home decor, furniture makeovers, your shop, home remodeling and furnishing an entire home? Count me IN!! I think everyone feels the same way. I enjoy the variety, your fun personality, and your love of family. So just 'keep on keepin' on.' And THAT is a saying from the 70s which is when I graduated high school. I think we all feel a certain nostalgia for the days of our youth, so I guess every era has its good times!
😉
I am watching a video you did years ago when you were pregnant and your husband was helping fix some very difficult pieces. I love that video! And please hug your husband for me. He has inspired my husband to fix some tough pieces as well. Thank you.
Thanks for sharing!! I love to hear that. Yayyy
U r so generous to help ur sister in law in her home!!!that is a lot of hours!!!!!
Out of the hundreds of people I am subbed to, and all of the possible people that I could have been scrolling past whom I'm not subbed to...I heard your voice and immediately knew who it was 😂 I love your videos!!
Haha I'll take that as a compliment! Thank you
@@DesertDIY - Good because it is a compliment! ☺️
The 70's were awesome!!! Best music for sure too!
Great job, it’s always great to see family helping family. I love watching your family together. Can’t wait to see more! Have a wonderful and blessed day.🙏😊☀️
Thank you so much!
i think it so kind of you and husband to help family not many people
I was born in 1964 I think the 70 and 80 were the best times.
I loved the books. I can never resist buying them!! Play room is really going to be fantastic! The little rug was the star!!!
Um....go back to the 50s. We didn't have indoor plumbing in the farm house, but as kids, oh what great memories! Driving a 1948 Ford tractor on the main highway to another farm when only 10 years old.
The 90’s were the BEST! Everyone obviously believes it because all the decor, colors, clothing & music is ALL back in style! 😊
I totally agree! Yessss
Along with the 70's and 80's. Tye dyes, bell bottoms and boho are from the 70's. I was in High School .
I would have to say the 80s were the best❤😂..but I’m 52
Loved the late 70’s early 80’s, it is coming together nicely..
I think so too!
Love decorating with free and used stuff. Gives homes such a unique and personal look. So much better than all the decorating magazines spending thousands of dollars on to decorate a room. Use these magazines for inspiration, but thrift like items.
what really rare person you are, at first thought why doing all that but as I listened I realised what you are about and your way of seeing the world. You have lifted me today what a great job too
Wow thank you so much!
I’m enjoying this series of fixing up your
sister-in-laws home. It all looks very nice and coordinated. 👍🏻
Thank you!
I was born in 39 so i have been in many decades. Got married in 56 so that was raising a family. Ended that marriage and went to college with 3 kids. So i spent those years doing what i woukd have done after HS. Those were great years and i loved the late 60's. Buy each decade had its good stuff.
I’m partial to the 80s. Love to watch your videos it helps me to learn new and different things and I sure wish I had a goodwill bins near me.
Rock on! Thank you Cynthia
The 90’s were happy - I knew where my kids were 😅. I love watching these videos ❤
I loved being a mom to little kids and giving them happy times. All the things that my parents didnt know how to do.
The 60's for sure. The world seemed way less scary then. I really love the way you and your husband work together. You are truly lucky to have such a strong family.
Beautiful couple
We just went through similar water leak problems when we demo our kitchen water leaks from previous owners in kitchen and bath that went unfixed. Had to replace stink pipes n bathroom had to be gutted. Told my husband renovating a home is not for the faint of heart we're nearing the end but my goodness its been a journey lol😊
Excited to see the new built-in n his sisters place . Y'all do an amazing job finding items free, cheap n repurpose. Always inspired.
Have an amazing week
I am so sorry you had to go through that but yes it sure is worth it in the end.
I liked the'70s. I got a divorce and learned how to support myself and my three children mostly by myself.
I love the black painted table and the little white chairs.
Its good that you found the leak when you did. It could have been much worse !!
You could always dye the chair cover a darker color like Hunter green or navy and that would hide the stains…old and new. 😅
Haha true!!!
I’m an 80s gal. Loved it
Just for me personally, not too in to clothing try ons, but appreciate you asking! Love Souther Living and decorating books! But I'm 71, so I'm old lol!
Thank you!
She is so blessed to have you.
And us to have her too
Grew up 50', 60's, 70's. Best of times mostly! Vietnam excluded!
Love watching yr channel. I like how u think outside the box.
The 70’s where the best..
Yes! Thank you! I wish I could've experienced the 70s
I like it when you do try ons of the clothes you buy! Also, I buy all the books I read at thrift stores and I clean all the books with wipes too!😊
I was just saying the other day that the 90's were the best years, glad to see a lot comes back in style from that era. You and your husband are doing a great job at your sister in law's house, you have my respect 😊❤
For me, early 1970s... life was carefree. I just have fond memories of living my little life as the "baby" with two older brothers. I had everything I needed, but I didn't always get everything I wanted. I was blessed to go on vacation every year (usually a road trip or camping... once on a train!). Even though dad smoked in the car with the windows rolled up, we rode in cars with no seat belts and bikes with no helmets and played outside all summer until dark...😅 I survived. Life wasn't always perfect by any means, but I always knew I was loved and safe. I was blessed.
Cory, you are such an inspiration always so positive and joyful. I look forward to each and every video you publish. ❤ ~Laura
Thank you Laura. That sounds like a wonderful time to grow up in
You got some really cute stuff at the bins and your sister-in-laws house 🥰wow so awesome. You and your husband are so nice to do this for her ad her family. GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR FAMILY 🌿👏💕🌿👏oh I almost forgot. Yes please do the try on clothes (fashion show ) it’s really fun to see how you can take a thrifted item and give it a new life.
In 2018 I had my 1978 home remodeled. I didn't leave a beer bottle behind. I did make a time capsule. It included samples of the original burnt orange carpet, and faux "tile look"linoleum flooring, cabinet hardware etc. I wrote a note to the future homeowners who presumably find the time capsule when they remodel, that says something along the lines of you think its dated looking now here's a sample of the changes I made in 2018.
That is REALLY cool
Great finds! Best stain remover I’ve ever used is Dawn blue dish detergent.
I grew up in the 60’s. We lived in an old farmhouse, there was a barn on the property, huge pasture for my horse. I was outside all the time, loved my childhood.
Wow! That’s a lot of work! But you two work so well as a team and your family is the sweetest.❤️ Can’t wait for the next video!
Ahhhh the 90s…simpler times for sure. I think I must be around your age. Omg the beer bottle in your wall! 🤦🏼♀
I am about to be 34
@@DesertDIY ok so I’m 38…you’re my little brother’s age 😊
Love that red lamp! So pretty! I love try on videos!! You look amazing!
The late 60's early 70's life was very innocent. If we did anything it was a family project. Summer time always outside.💗💗💗
Hi Cory! Thanks for another wonderful video. 😊 So glad that you found the leak and that it wasn’t too bad. I hope that this is the last one! I know how it feels to have a “leaky” house. For a long time we had roof leaks. I can’t wait to see how Manny and you continue renovate this house. After seeing your renovations of your house in Arizona, I know it will be stunning AND economical. You have inspired my husband and me to upgrade some things in our home this year. So please keep the ideas coming! 👍😊 I love your fashion videos. Please do more! Take care and God bless all of you! 😊🙏❤🌼🌸🌷
I have the decorating book you showed, I looked at it so much it finally came apart. I love the styles in it. My ex and I bought a family home in 96. I used it for inspiration to decorate our home. 😊
Hi Corey! I love watch you and your honey working together you both inspire me! I also like Grench country and thought you might enjoy this channel I've been watching " The Little Blue Fly" Beverly decorates in French Country.
Little ones are so adorable. I love your helper. She helped you so much that you had to carry her. : )
Haha yes! By the end of the day she just want me to hold her or else she would throw a fit so I held her for the rest if it lol
Yes, do try-ons. That would be fun.
I visited your booth yesterday. Bought some items and was thrilled.
Painted Tree Boutique is so much bigger than I thought it would be.
We were on vacay. Went to Wichita, KS, then to Weatherford, TX and down to Kingwood, TX to visit your booth and then home to AL. Great vacay week!! 😊
Enjoying this series of fixing up your sister-in-law's house. Keep doing what you're doing!! It's amazing!!
Yay.. been waiting on another video😁 70's- mid 80's was my best years! Life was simple & so much fun! I loved my childhood up thru my teenage years😊 Would I go back? You dang skippy.. in a heartbeat😁 The big chair looked so comfy. When we lived in NC where, we're originally from & raised our kids, my dining table had those same ladder back chairs. Oh yes.. loved the little wood chest of drawers❤ And awesome price! Love the depression glass bowls! Great find! I love the little kids chairs..i have several different ones i used on my front porch for flowers. But I just love old wood chairs of any size, i always pick them up if they are at a good price. The brass wall planter is really pretty.. love a good wall planter😉 Oh Cool.. the sleep over sounds like lots of fun! Oh goodness.. love that tall birdhouse❤ Girlfriend you DON'T want to come to Disney for at least another month or so.. you'd fry on that black top pavement!💀 Its ridiculously HOT! I hate to even go outside. Temps one 100° every day🥵 I want to take my grandkids.. we only live an hour away, 52 miles. But We'll go sometime between November & March. Since its that close it'll just be a day trip. My DIL's cousin works there so we can get good discounts😉 we'll probably get season family passed🤷♀️ Well yes mam.. we would love a try on video!😊 love the Free Assembly dress. Southern Living books are awesome, another great find for sure! Lol girl yes, please disinfect everything.. dirty undies😬 The little table is so cute! Typical old mom/grandma..love your washer & dryer! What brand are they? I use to have the front load set on box stands. They lasted me 17+yrs. I loved them, no bending, large capacity, just a great set! When we get into A house we've may have to get a set.. depends if the house has a set or not of course 🤷♀️ The built ins are so nice! My son had one of those rugs & my grandson has one now.. just a neat piece for little boys😊 Of course i enjoyed as always, & always excited for the next video! Have A blessed week!😊
Great finds at the thrift place ! Great ways to makeover with paint and accessories! I change things I already have with paint to look different. 😊❤
That is awesome!
I love a try on video, so you’ve got my vote xx
Yes the 60’s were great.
Can't wait for more!!!!!!
The 70's and 80's were the best.
I love this series! It's so nice to see how you can complete a space for minimal money! Can you do another one with pottery barn/restoration hardware kind of style? I'd volunteer but way up north in Canada 🇨🇦
Love how you are always helping others! You look like you are getting smaller too! 😊
Thank you!!!!
Beautiful! And yes do a try on❤
I really enjoy your videos! You have a fantastic talent to re-do and re-purpose items that look like junk. But you can turn them into something useful & beautiful! Thank you 😊 ❤
Oh thank you!
I’m so happy to have found your channel 😊. I love the way you pull things together from seemingly random places and it works! To answer a question you had my favorite decades were being a kid in the 70’s and a teenager in the 80’s That was my favorite genre 💚. I’ll be staying tuned and your sister in law is a very lucky girl…
Wow. You have the touch..great decorating.
Everything is coming along so nice.👍
This series is the 💣 bomb!!! Love it.
Yay!
You are a very good mom 😊. I love that little storage ottoman. I always hate it when your videos and I want to go on and on for hours lol. Have a great week sweetie and I will see you Wednesday and Sunday ❤️❤️
Thank you so much Lisa
This is like a great tv drama . Now we wait and guess what will happen next. Love it.tfs.
Haha I love that you made that comparison
90's were the best-- I was a teen those years, and it was the best.
"But this...ooh!" We had the same reaction to that dresser. I have really enjoyed these episodes, Cory!
Wow, everything is looking excellent! I don't know how you do all that you do! It's amazing to help your family and friends! That's what we're supposed to do! Love everything you're doing! I'm loving these videos, giving me some inspiration! 😊❤
Thank you so much!
I am so enjoying this series! ❤+🖤
It’s looking nice, Cory & Manny ❤
Thank you Gina!
@@DesertDIY you’re welcome, Cory
Ugh, slap foundations are so hard! I had one in the last two houses, and am so happy the current house has a basement. Im sure you will figure out a nice way to fix up the family room after you repair the leak.
In Australia it was great in 50/60 years have enjoyed all the one since but I grew up in that time
I loved the 70s, 80s AND 90s....great decor, great times, great music! ❤
Me too!!
I ❤ the pictures in that decorating book! 📖
Me too!!
The decorating is coming together quite nicely ❤
Thank you! 😊
I think for most of us the decade we grew up in will be the best decade of our lives.
Why? Because as kids - we're carefree. No responsibility. No worries.
Always look forward to your videos 😊 and trying on clothes that you find will be cool
I would love to purchase that 1997 home decor book! That’s always been my style and that’s the year I was born.
I’m enjoying your videos. Try-on and styling of thrifted clothes is appreciated. Thanks.
Yes try ones
Yes Corey🎉 I would enjoy a fashion show 😅❤
My favorite decades were the 70s and 80s, however, the 90s were happy as well.
I was born in 1964 into a military family. Traveled lots of places including Germany in several regions. Loved!! 1980’s was soo Awesome!! Still play music from that time!! Was young teen growing into my own!! Had my first child in 1990!!❤🎉❤
I love watching you two you are amazing how you fix everything beautiful ❤❤❤❤
Everything is looking great…
Cory, I absolutely love watching your videos! You do such great projects!❤️❤️
Thank you so much!
Loving those books all of them❤
I am so excited for you when you have your visitors!
I know that you will have a wonderful time!
Don't underestimate the effect that you have had on this world. I know that Kerry and Emma love you just for you being you.
Just yesterday, the RUclips logarithm sent me (a woman) to a channel called "carnivore hunters"
(It's two brothers that hunt.)
One of them was issuing an invitation to "Bill Nott". He said that when you feel that you are ready he is inviting you on a hunting expedition. You have influenced people that you probably have no idea are even aware of your existence.
Now on another topic. (Social anxiety) At one time in my working career I was a counselor in a women's program (who were incarcerated)
They were transitioning from prison out into the outside world.
If they had no write-ups or escape charges, on their last week we would take them on an expedition to Walmart.
Many of these women had not been outside prison walls (or confinement) for years. TALK ABOUT SOCIAL ANXIETY!
They wanted to go shopping and to be somewhat "free," but the anxiety was crippling. Their hearts would beat rapidly and their hands would shake.
On the drive to Walmart if we should happen to pull up next to a police car at a stoplight without even thinking they would automatically hit the floorboards!
Once we got to Walmart, until we got to the nail polish aisle, they could finally relax. At that point their joy in the excursion would finally out rank their fear of "no boundaries." but many of them could not resist the temptation to reach out and touch the children that were riding in the shopping carts. It had been so long since they had seen everyday ordinary children" in a "normal" setting.
Now on another topic, Daisy,
My dearly departed cat was a picky eater like Daisy. In the last few months of his life I found some small cans of wet food (I think manufactured by Friskies) called "Creamy Delights" and he really loved them, more than any other food I had found for him in the 12 years I had him. I bought it at walmart. Maybe Daisy would like it. We agonize so much over pleasing them.
I got a kick out of the interaction between you and Daisy when you were trying to unbox your dumbbells. God forbid you should inconvenience him.
Well enough already!
🎉 looking forward to your next video!!!
Hi there, I think you meant to leave this comment for someone else
@@DesertDIY I am sorry I did intend it for Bill knotts channel I got a phone call in the middle of writing it. So sorry
70 where the best,as a kid we could go any where without worrying
That would be so nice
I like when you model the clothes for us. I love all of your video formats.
PS I disinfect books, too.
Thank you!!!
*Yes, 1990's was a good era! 😊❤*
Yessss
Your doing great.
SIL house is really coming together!
Yayyy
I love the 90s!!
The 1950s is the best decade
You two are my aim, I think I'm probably older than you both. Such beautiful hearts and fam xxx
Thank you Laura. We are in our mid 30s
@@DesertDIY late 30s very late 😅 only a tiny bit older but you two are goals. I feel you're accomplishing so much. Ps when you mentioned in a previous video about Manuel going to school as well, it's easy to say but extremely hard to do especially with a young family. It's obvious you two are supportive with each others goals. ❤️
My grandmother always claimed that the men who they hired to do some work in their basement were drinking. When my sister became the owner of the house and did some remodeling in the basement she found beer cans in the wall.
