The magic about your photos is that these are everyday family kitchens being loved and used...not dream, modern advertisement kitchens. These folks were creating memories that they weren't even aware of!
My 1969 kitchen had avacado green appliances: side by side refrigerator, dishwasher, built-in electric self-cleaning oven and burners. White ceramic tiles on counters and backsplash. Also avacado washer and dryer.
Our 100+ year old house came with a kitchen updated in 1959/60. Sunset maple cabinets with sunset wood paneling and faux brick wall behind the caramel Gaffers and Sattler cooktop/oven in sunset maple cabinetry. White with gold fleck formica counters (in nice enough condition to keep). Perfect for my vintage 1950s-1970s stainless cookware and accessories. A new stainless stove/oven replaced the original cooktop/oven. We have not updated our kitchen beyond that because I actually like it. 😂😂
Not my kitchen. Except for a replacement stainless stove, we have not updated the sunset maple 1959/60 kitchen. My FIL did MIL's kitchen and the wood cabinet doors were replaced with vinyl-faced plywood/particle board, and counters updated to composite black stone. I was sad, I love simple vintage kitchens.
How strange to think, many of these people are either very old or long gone. And if they could have been told their photos would be shared and seen around the world, about 55 to 60 years afterward - they would have thought that crazy and impossible! And a lot of these subjects probably never even saw the photos - especially if they were just visiting someone's home.
Not our "outdated 1960s kitchen." My cookware and kitchen accessories are mostly vintage to that era. Sunset maple and faux brick with white gold fleck formica counter. It is fabulous. 😂😂
We were so blessed to have great grandparents for our children. People who still had Crucifixes on the wall, but were not over-the-top Evangelical lunatics. They were just Irish and Italian and being Catholic was both cultural and spiritual. It made our kids' holidays extra-special. We have had multiple generations in one place at the holidays and for Sunday meals. I remember being a little kid in Dale City Virginia, when it was a small place, and the houses were much closer to Levittown than the McMansion monstrosities of today. These pictures really remind me of simpler times.
My 60's kitchen was nice not really old nor modern. The oldest thing was my cooking stove. My kitchen table was from the 50's and was worth money a few years ago$$$. Considered collectable.
Notice that there is little or no working countertop space in these old kitchens. Where do you prepare the ingredients for multiple dishes? What about the cleanup for a large dinner party?
At my great grandmother’s house we stacked dishes on the kitchen table. All the women would form an assembly line - wash, rinse, dry, put away in the cabinets! It was a small space but everyone piled in.
Not everybody had kitchens like that......I only kitchens like that either in the movies, on TV or in a magazine. We certainly didn't have one like that when I was a kid. We had a kitchenette......and there were 6 of us living in the apartment.
Are these people in most of these videos still alive and know that you put their picture up there🤔. I'm just kidding🤭. I was born in 1950🤫. These things bring back wonderful memories🤩. My dad had a red kitchen and table outfit. My mother n law had the yellow one. She also had a yellow stepping stool, which my daughter wished that she asked her uncle for😢. How about the up do's and rollers,hair clips, and bobby pins we had to wear along with sitting under those funny hair dryers😁. I could go on and on🤭. Thanks for bring us down memory lane👍. God Bless🙏 Cathy🙏
It doesn't seem to matter what age they might be, everyone looks old, even the kids. Love the background music, it's perfect.
Great days miss them every thing was so simple

When kitchens were cozy and didn’t look the a lawyers office. Poor kids today, gray, gray,gray. 😩☹️
Their color choices reflect their state of mind.

Some of these kitchens are no bigger than a ship's galley.
All those vintage photos of quaint kitchens from over 60 years ago. 🍽️

Okay, I'm 71, but still cooking and cleaning and gardening and driving my little sports car.
We’re not all gone. Some of us still have a few years to go yet. Thank you very much!
@@virginiarodkey2521 Me too!
That's pretty prolific. Kind of hard to keep the line between the past and the present ya know ?
Avocado green refrigerators, linoleum floors, cheap dinettes. The stuff that generated millions $$$ in kitchen remodeling for future generations.

Cooking was actually done in those kitchens.....

LOL you kids are spoiled.
We did prep on the kitchen table. Mom had to bend over a bit, but perfect height for teaching kids cooking and baking skills.

Cool!!😃
Wow no middle fingers 😄
And no tattoos!
No need for all fancy kitchens they have now days ?
They didn't know they 'needed' them yet!
Most of these look much older than the sixties. I imagine money was tight and they couldn't renovate.
Or they are like me and are good with the "outdated" kitchen that came with the old house. 😁
💯🎶🥰
I guess these pictures are American because none of them are familiar to me living in the UK in the 60's....
I just don't like cabinets and wood above a stove.
