Everyone can agree that the 1970s were a different time in America. So many things have changed since the decade of bell bottoms and disco. You might remember some of these unique things kids would do in the 70s that have become obsolete. Back in the 70s, kids would play outside all day. The kids

The 1970s had a bevy of amazing decorating trends like shag carpeting and wood paneling. Here are our favorite household items from the 70s that you don't see today.
A lot of us are obsessed with vintage stuff nowadays, from clothes to music to generally wishing we had grown up in the 60s. We often forget, however, that our dear old parents were the ones who started all those trends we now admire.

The 1970s were a party, full of exploration without explanation. They were all about discovery. The 1970s were colorful and innovative. The world stood at its most creative precipice of all. Colors and design exploded; television was cool and getting cooler, fashions... well, unfortunately they were what they were, but everything else in general was just plain far out. These old instant film photos captured teen girls during the 1970s. That what their lives were 40 years ago.
I was at an art show this weekend and one of the booths had the most fabulous handbags made from old record albums. The artist used both the covers and the vinyl to fashion some of the coolest bags I've ever seen. You can check them out here. I spotted a few familiar covers which made me think about my own album collection and inspired my list for List It Tuesday. I consider the 70s to be my decade. Those ten years took me from an awkward seventh grader through high school and to college graduate. I could fill ten lists with my favorite songs, artists, or albums of the decade so I limited myself to artists whose albums I owned. As you can see, my taste in music runs more to singer/songwriters than bands and is pretty tame. My husband was the own who owned The Rolling Stones, Kiss, Deep Purple, Jethro Tull, Led Zeppelin, Lynyrd Skynyrd, and The Who among others. Here are a few random musical memories: - My eighth grade teacher was young, bearded, and fresh out of college. He sat cross legged on his desk and played Simon and Garfunkel on the record player when we worked quietly. I thought listening to "Kisses Sweeter Than Wine" in the classroom of a Catholic school seemed pretty scandalous. - My first date with my husband was to a stadium concert headlined by The Beach Boys and Chicago in 1975. - The Best of Bread was my go-to album whenever I felt depressed in high school. Boy are those songs depressing! - My college roommate and I couldn't go out unless we'd listened to Frampton Comes Alive, Bat Out of Hell and Linda Ronstadt's Greatest Hits. It's no wonder I know every word to "Paradise by the Dashboard Light." - Our favorite "new" album is the soundtrack to The Jersey Boys. I loved this music in the 70s and I still love it today. Heck, I even like disco! Don't forget to hop over to artsyville and check out even more lists.

As the first decade of the groovy era, the 1960s were a time full of radical change, great music, and amazing fashions. The same decade that gave us Woodstock also gave birth to Beatlemania, touch tone telephones, and the miniskirt… it was a seriously innovative time.
