*Hi, everyone! Move-in went well last week, and my husband and I have been busy settling into our new home ever since. Thanks for all of the well-wishes--they meant so much!* When we first visited the house in late December, Adam and I knew we found our forever home due, in part, to all of the character and charm in each room. Built in 1955, the house was lovingly maintained by the original owners and retained many of the ear-marks of mid-century design. The most conspicuous *cough* dated *cough* of those designs is the brown and yellow kitchen. Take a look at what we're working with: It's pretty ugly, right? Amusingly so, but I'm counting my lucky stars that the kitchen didn't get a late-eighties renovation or even a more recent change because I'd tear it all out anyway. The brown and yellow kitchen has lived a good life but it will shortly make way for a more modern (and less potty-inspired) look. In honor of the history of this crazy, once-popular color combination, I wanted to dedicate a post to the brown and yellow kitchens of yesteryear. Enjoy. (clockwise from left: 1 / 2 / 3) (via Flickr) (clockwise from left: 1 / 2 / 3) (Domestic Putterings) This kitchen is "tasteful"? I beg to differ. These pictures (and our kitchen) prove that not all trends should be resurrected. Let the brown and yellow kitchen die. Stay tuned for updates to the space!
Previously we’ve featured some bold and brassy seventies kitchens in Home Cookin, this time we turn our attention to kitchen appliance adverts from the mid-sixties to the early eighties. As you can probably guess these ads predominately show ladies at work in the kitchen. Although a young man does make an appearance in the Hamiltons washer and dryer advertisement. [&hellip
