- Technology in homes really starts in the 1920s and '30s. Even though indoor plumbing and electricity are invented in the late 19th century, they don't become commonplace in new homes until the Period Revival era. Come here Brent talk about telephones and especially Kitchens. How they change and the historic thinking about how a kitchen should function. Fun Stuff

My grandmother, born in 1894 in southern Indiana, worked out of her Hoosier Cabinet until 1975 when they sold the farm and moved to town.
Wow, I bet she has some stories. It is a fascinating company, especially in the 1920's era when it was one of the more important appliances in the kitchen. Thanks for sharing.
@@BrentHullit’s a MAIN feature in my new kitchen ❤ I have two Hoosiers, used as kitchen units, not decor, plus the possum belly one in my dining area used me t to the kitchen as a coffee/ tea station.
Along with my 1927 stove.
My dad's house in Groesbeck still didn't have electricity or running water when he left for Vietnam in 1968. We've come a long way.
Thanks for the great videos Brent, I'm learning a lot!
Thanks for sharing. Very interesting.
We had a Hoosier cabinet growing up. I never knew why it was called that until now. Thanks Brent! I love learning these things from you.
Thanks for watching!
Well this explains my kitchen's unruly lay out.. I'm just going with it.. Thanks!!
Your welcome.
Very cool Brent. So full of information & History. Your videos are really enjoyable. Hoping all is well Bud, Dirty Jersey out!!
Thanks 👍 I appreciate you watching.
Great info! Thank you!
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching.
I really enjoyed this.
Awesome. Thanks.
I was going through Millard’s crossing here in nacogdoches it’s a reconstructed historic village museum complex a place where they moved a lot of old log cabins and Victorian houses I’ve been working for the family and foundation they got me in touch with a lady who Owns a sears and roe buck house here in town dates around 1910ish it’s so cool to work on these old home so many historical houses here
Wow, luck you. I'll have to check out Millard's crossing next time I'm in East Texas. Thanks.
I bought a 1920s bungalow style house and everything is built-in and original. A blessing and a curse! 😂 It is still all sturdy and in working condition. I thought it would be so easy to replace the counters and add a new sink and dishwasher, but keep the original charm of the cabinets and built in shelving…. Turns out that nothing is “standard size” and everything requires a specialist of sorts to adjust without ruining. Keep me in your prayers!
Your trial will be worth it. Thx.
It was standard to have uppers 10 or 14“ deep and lowers 18“.
I had a 1941 kitchen like that!
Love your videos. Please don’t say that kitchens didn’t even have cabinets. What IS a Hoosier? A kitchen cabinet unit with both an upper cabinet and a lower cabinet box WITH a countertop! ❤
point taken. thx.
What was the book that you showed? A Miller’s catalogue? Is that a good reference to use for looking at pictures and items used in the 20s?
A millwork catalog. You can find them on ebay. Good luck.
Wow, this is awesome! Is this like a Class of some sort or how do we learn more?
Yes, it is! Go to the Live section of my RUclips page, the full talks are there. Thanks
@@BrentHull I can't find it 😬
@@ryananthony4840 go to his channel page, select videos, and then select the "live" bubble.
@@Cinnamonbuns13 I still don't see it..... Are u using a computer or phone? I'm using phone, I wonder if they're different
@@ryananthony4840 Here's the link to the talk. ruclips.net/video/KzBw8HXepn0/видео.html
Hey I must have missed this one; we still have a Hoosier cabinet! We use it for cereal, snacks, and the kids art supplies.
Nice.
Hey, that's my kitchen, only instead of a Hoosier, the baking cabinet is a Marsh. Sink on legs, a wood cookstove, a 1915 gas stove, no built-in cabinets.
Wow, sounds like an awesome kitchen!! THanks.
Nice!
The sink was open for airflow to prevent mold
Ok.
Very interesting!
It’d be nice to see some side by side comparisons of typical cabinet doors between the decades as time went on.
It’d also help people know what era their kitchen may have been made if it’s not original to the house & stop people from painting over or replacing if they have the knowledge of what’s infront of them.
Thanks for the video
My other video on kitchens goes into more depth. Check it out and let me know what other questions you have. Thanks. ruclips.net/video/vnATqshLDes/видео.html
i looked at soooo many houses where all the original hardwood trim and cabinetry was paineted over when i was shopping for my house. they had no idea how much value they were losing
Is open shelving for kitchens a new design or has it been around before cabinets?
I don't see it in the millwork catalogs so it isn't an historical element that was popular from the 1880's to 1960's.. I think it is a very rustic and rural feature that has been used today in contrast to hanging cabinets. Thanks for the question.
My kitchen bearly have Countertop. I bought a large cast iron double bowl and sink to have space to dry cookware. Well that's is going to be a costly headache since now everything need to be rearrange including all pipes. Always measures and think before you buy.
Good point. Early counters were not always as deep as today. 22" compared to 25" Thanks!
Interesting evolution. As the kitchen gained cabinets and storage, did they replace pantries (off the kitchen) and China cabinets (in the dining room)?
Quick answer is yes, but I find the pantry is still a desired space in new homes we build today. Certainly the formal china cabinet has changed. THanks.
The music fits more
Thanks.
Nowadays people spend a load money on the latest kitchen and still end up eating in restaurants.
haha, true.
I love unfitted kitchens.
Nice. Me too.
I absolutely love the information your videos provide, but I honestly cannot watch any more of them. I get so distracted by the number of times you say “right” or “okay” that I miss the important points you’re making. It’s chalk on a chalkboard, right, annoying as heck, OK? So, OK, right, I’m reminded of kids, OK, that constantly insert “literally”, OK? So,right, go listen to some of that, OK? So right. It’s annoying, right? OK. So, OK, let’s move on…
I hear it makes a great drinking game. . . Sorry, working on it.
@@BrentHull I’m so glad you have a sense of humor, and honestly, the drinking game might be just the ticket. I’m definitely gonna give it a try, because I’ve really been wanting to watch your video on Craftsman construction. I think this might work!
