Nothing creates dust like using a wood burning stove. We heated our house for years and years with nothing but a wood burning stove heater. I loved the heat from it and heated our home like nobodys business and saved us so much money, due to the fact we did not have to buy the wood for it. Loved cutting wood for the stove every fall. BUT. The ash dust, smoke, soot and the stacked wood in the house created an immense and non ending mess. I learned why there was such a thing in the old days of 'spring cleaning'. The house needed cleaning from ceiling to floor. Including windows and curtains, walls and everything else.
Do the newer wood stoves create less dust / ash or contain it better?
@@scottamaral5073 we have a Vermont Casting stove it creates less dust/ ash.
“I’m never happy with something if it is not aesthetically pleasing to me no matter how functional.” Yesss!!! I’m all about function and aesthetic! The two together make such a lovely kitchen…or any space. 😊
I am so glad to see that all your plates and glasses dont match. One of my things is to go to thrift stores and pickup really nice glasses for cheap. Coffee cups too. I wash everthing by hand so I crack a few on the sink, but I use old restaurant ware for dishes and havent broke one in a long time. You have a lovely kitchen and the new cabinet is perfect. Great video!
That hutch couldn’t fit more perfectly in that spot. I love when that happens.
Actually perfect timing. Sitting down to feed baby. And myself with a tea.
I appreciate your emphasis on 'saving' up for something you really want, as we all tend to lean toward instant gratification which can create so many domino issues the coveted object simply cannot override in the end. Anticipation, the old feeling we had as children awaiting our birthdays, holidays, etc., was a very important part of life. And the satisfaction of working - and waiting for something - which aids in the development of patience, is such an vital part of raising children and such an important state of mind in a frenzied, hectic world. You are teaching your children well.
I absolutely love your working kitchen. It is practical, aesthetic, welcoming…real
My 1910 log cabin has an unfitted kitchen- tore out the 70's kitchen and moved it. All cabinets and sink were free side of road finds. I love the look and would never go back.
That cabinet is a GREAT find! How exciting!
I get you on the mason jars. Except for my antique blue ones, I do love to look at them, and are mostly for looks. But I have so many uses for the mason jars. Years ago when I had a very small kitchen and not much storage, my pint mason jars replaced my drinking glasses. Because they were multi purpose. We could drink out of them or i could use them to store anything liquid. I used quart size, wide mouth, to put left over soup and stews in. They take up less room in the fridge and they are great for transporting foods as gifts to others. And I still use my mason jars for these things. I even freeze my green smoothies in them. My dried herbs go in them and other dried food items, I some times will store in them. Currently I have elderberry syrup and Fire Cider in them. And I have some homemade sauer kraut in my fridge now in a quart size. Leftover coffee from the morning? Pour it in a mason jar and stick it in the fridge to reheat later. (yes. I don't waste anything. Even in my bigger kitchen, I still drink from a pint size mason jar. I even take them outside to drink from. Put a lid on when I set it down to keep bugs out of it LOL. Using them for all these things, means I don't need a bunch of other drinking and storage containers cluttering up my cabinets. As for my extra jars? I store them in the attic and some under a bed, for canning. The only mason jars that are seen constantly are my very old and special and original blue ball canning jars with the old zinc lids. I have all sizes and I adore them and never tire of looking at them.
Fire cider?
Love your practicality Shaye! We have horses off property and it always been my dream to have a farm. I’m so impressed with how you face challenges , make it work, and share with us. I’m living vicariously through you, as I didn’t screen my husband for farm life before we married…😂
Darling, concerning your house and its condition, may be this old advice helps. Earlier in the days people used to decorate their houses with boards. It was made for both decorative and practical purposes. Also they coped with the cracks in wood putting there the mixture of slaked lime and rye flour.
Loved this chance to hear your ideas,and wisdom !I have a verybusy kitchen ,always in use.Thank you so much.
I absolutely adore your mix and matched kitchen. Its my favorite look.❤
I agree that it's important to make your kitchen a place you find makes a great experience. I like to light a candle and hear beautiful music when I cook, along with a beautiful kitchen.
Thanks for answering my question about the delft tile and for the close up! I thought they were mounted on some kind of a board! What a great find!! Beautiful.
That box you use for breads looks so similar to what I store my seeds in! I'd love to see that up close!
The Lone Fox wrapped his stainless steel dishwasher with copper. That would be something Stu could do to your fridge/freezer too.
I love the ride through the beautiful mountains, so lovely. I live in the country and the amount of dust is unreal. I've never experienced anything like it. I have a very small kitchen that is yet to be finished. I'm taking some of your advice today so that when we do remodel I'll not have any open spaces.
Love your kitchen how it looks so cozy
I agree about the perfectionism of most kitchens. I don't do as much as you in the kitchen, but I cook three meals a day and pressure can. I need to get the same mid set of eliminating things from my kitchen, it just is so cluttered. I find though, when I put appliances away, I don't use them, I don't know why that happens. You're giving , me things to think about for sure. I also have mismatched plates and glasses and love them. I hated the idea of getting rid of a set because you break several plates, it's such a waste. I never thought of silverware. I am planning on painting my kitchen cabinets soon with chalk and then sealing them, not waxing. It's suppose to make it so much better, I guess I'll find out, lol. We ended up converting a downstairs bedroom to a long term pantry also and really, it helps so much. I don't make cheese all the time, but like to so things like that go down to the pantry. Love having a space to keep items to make creams and salves, soap, seeds, long term foods, extra this and that. Mason jars, grrr, I am forever stacking them on the dining table till I get case to take down to the pantry. Now of course we're bringing them up to can.
Thank you my kitchen seems to be evolving somewhat like yours. It’s nice to know. My style is just fine
And I love it❤
Thanks for going over the questions in such detail. I love your kitchen and how intentional and real it is and that it isn't all white! Great ideas here for some lovely and functional storage solutions.
As we prepare to move at the end of the month this video was so helpful. I have many kitchens over the years and am always looking to make them as beautiful and inspiring as they can be while still being functional. Sometimes as you know it can be challenging. Thank You Shaye and Stu.
Shaye, beautiful new hutch! My Dad lives in Monroe only 90 min from us. It’s so much fun shopping in Snohomish! ❤
Love your new cabinet❣️
And your style! Thanks!
i watched this like 3 times with my kids yelling and helping flip pancakes and i still missed the bit about the breadbox. are your breads and rolls wrapped up in there? what kind is it? I need help in this department! i loved the video! thank you!
You have these weird ways of making coffee 😅😊 Love it 🥰
I love the new ovens. That’s the one I’m saving for. Right now I’m making a single oven with 4 burners work and using 2 thrifted ( but they were unused ) 22 qrt roasters for big batch cooking and preserving.I’m waiting to get what I want much like your espresso machine.
Scruffy must mean magnificent! I love your kitchen🩷
Your videos always so inspiring! We moved finally from the city and enjoying living in the nature for more than a year. Organizing of stuff here is of course different from the town life. I remember watching with children your stories in the evenings - it was really building up our plans, your advises and experience sharing is so useful and encouraging! :)
Great video. A few tips: Corelle dishes are great for extras or everyday dishes with kids and company. Benjamin Moore makes a specific paint for cabinets that is akin to an oil paint. It is SO durable! Highly recommend.
What is it called? Does it need primer first and does it need a sealer?
I’m curious what was for breakfast. Looks like a German Pancake/Yorkshire pudding kind of thing.
PS. I love seeing how your kitchen evolves with time. It is so very inspiring…especially when it’s cozy, beautiful, and achievable.
The little dogs markings are fantastic!
I have been ordering from Bona Furtuna thanks to you & I love them!
Thank you!
Loved this video. So helpful and it got my wheels thinking about my kitchen!!
Love love love your new dresser. It really elevates your kitchen 😍
I used to live in Monroe and have many friends who still live there. I grew up in Snohomish County and miss the old days, but now a days, there’s way too much traffic! Too many people…… but still beautiful.
TY I live in Washington State and Monroe is only a half hour from me.. I have watched your channel for a few years just never comment but always leave a thumbs up !!
I buy ice tea glasses by the case and keep them in the stock room.
❤ Wonderful video. Thank you.
I LOVE videos like this!!
I think you make your home work very well for your family!!! I love your new cabinet!!
I live in an 1880 New England home which is now two apartments. My kitchen is tiny and the former owner had put 70's cheap cabinets in (and they hold very little in them) I added open shelving to help me have a more storage. I have a pegboard (Like Julia Child's husband Paul installed in her Massachusetts home) that holds my pots and pans. I call it the Makeshift Diner (A named coined by my Granddaughter for my Camper Kitchen)...It seemed to fit here too. I took a nook down the hall from the kitchen and made it into a "makeshift" pantry that I call "The Mercantile" I made things as pretty as I can. I am also a visual person.
Thank you for this
Beautiful kitchen..love it😊🎉🎉🎉
Enjoyed the video
I really enjoyed this video. I love the way you want to make your kitchen beautiful as well as practical.. I would love to have some of that wallpaper but here in the UK it is extremely expensive!
I have everything hid in jars in the fridge or freezer to keep the pantry moths away
Hicksters. City folk who appropriate ruralism.
Just such a beautiful hutch!! Mine is filled with all my jars for cooking and baking etc. Fun to hear all the answers! I don't think your kichen is scruffy, by the way! It's filled with character!! I'll have to go follow you on instagram to input a few questions. Blessings!
Shaye and Stu,
I am looking to use plaster between boards for my kitchen. What product did you use and what did you use under the plaster and wood? Thank you. I just think your kitchen is perfect!
USEFUL
Beautiful
CC is still around❤❤❤❤
Beautiful kitchen! One question for you. We just bought a home that has an old fashioned tin bread box in a cabinet drawer in the kitchen. Do you store your home made bread unwrapped in your tin? Just curious how to use this feature since I have never had one. Thanks!
Oo girl I looked up that coffee machine. That's a lot of dough! I'd love to know if it's worth it once you buy it!
Your coffee looks delicious. I didn’t catch what kind of espresso machine you are saving for that’s smallish? Did anyone catch that? My youngest daughter lives in Washington state for a season(several years) my husband and I are going to go see her in 2 weeks. She’s in Bellingham. We won’t have time to go see the farm country but it would be interesting.
Great chat. What did you do with the lovely shelf you replaced?
I’m about 20 minutes from Monroe😊
Have you refinished your draw leaf table. I was looking at an older video where you were making cream puffs and it looked like it NEEDED to be refinished.
My aesthetic conundrum is my Berkey. I hate the way it looks no matter where I move it. Any suggestions? I love your Q & A videos! Thanks!
Me too! I love it but it’s so annoying to find a place for lol.
@@DH-qz2so Great ideas, thank you so much!
Put it on a plant stand out of marble or wicker etc.
Get nice quality hard plastic glasses; that will prevent breakage.
Hello, a bit late with my question. Is you kitchen foundation a pier and beam, and f so, how has the clay tile worked out being laid on it?
Hi! Could you link the exact model of the la marzocco espresso machine you are referring to, we are looking to replace ours in the near future. Thanks!
I suspect it's the Linea Micra - fantatsic machine!
So you don’t like you italian bialleti moka pot anymore? :(
Love you guys ❤ thanks for sharing 💜
I know you touched on the type of paint that you used on your cabinets but I'm curious how you feel about the COLOR of the blue cabinets? We're building our house and I'm really pulled to put some color on our lower cabinets but I'm worried about getting tired of the same color. I think the blue that you chose is absolutely gorgeous, but do you still love it after all this time?
I have the same (similar) blue cabinets and I still love it after three years ☺️ I have old brass handles, a blue and white vintage wallpaper and the cupboards are open-plan at the top, painted white on the inside to make my tiny kitchen seem a little bigger. The blue is fun and means little pops of colour (e.g. a red pepper grinder) really shine. I love it!
@@katieociardha2196 Thank you for sharing! Hearing how other people have taken a chance with bold color choices has me pretty convinced that I'll be doing it in our kitchen too!
Lovely kitchen. Is that a mini Aussie?
What brand of Dutch oven do you have?
love the blue cabinets but not the wall paper.
Love the wallpaper.
Are you the person who somebody said parents are billionaires and inlaws are millionaires?sorry for asking
I think you are thinking of Hannah from Ballerina Farm 😊 she is a great woman to follow.
@@HannahMarieJ55 yay thank you for the info 🌹..sure will..I only watched her once before
Maybe an unpopular opinion but I don't find your kitchen small. But I don't live in America so it could be a location thing...
4 min intro was kinda off putting. I almost clicked away out of boredom wondering when you would get to the video…
Hello....PLEASE READ.
use 2 watch every video of yrs over a yr ago, then got sidetracked 2 more similar 2 yrs and started watching more herbal channels.
Anyway heard one of my fav channels mentioned you and thought I'd check u out and c what's new.
Yr hubby does, yr hair has changed, children have grown and 2new dogs.
Puppy is cute.
I'm not impressed with u letting yr puppy hang it's head out the window while driving in vehicle.
Such a dangerous thing 2 do.
Bugs in the air hitting puppy eyes can literally damage them and also go up their nose with impact.
My veterinarian says this is so dumb 2 do. They get many who come in with actual rocks from the road flying into their faces and ears.
Just ask a motor cyclist why they wear leather, goggles and full head gear!
Other vehicles going buy throw loose debris from their side.
Let me ask u this... wld u allow yr children 2 hang their heads out the window?
Hopefully in yr next video u will mention why u think this is OK!
I got excited watching yr video 2 that point and had 2 pause 2 txt you. I know yr smarter than that. You probably just thought it was a cute innocent thing 2 show.
Enjoyed the video
