  2. Although I wouldn't want my place to be 70's style, I do enjoy it! It's so fun and modern. The pop of colors that the 70's did is so great! I do love bits and pieces of stuff that I could totally see in my apartment! x

  4. loving this trip down memory lane.
    I do remember some of these elements from my childhood.
    But I think I need to update my sewing room with the gun rack, lol
    Just in case any thing gets outta line in there.

  5. I was just saying I need a pink kitchen to prepare beets and pomegranates in! But I have to say my favorite detail is the gun rack in the sewing room. Hilarious!

  6. My husband and I just bought a house that is literally stuck in the 70’s. Not really my cup of tea. I’m more of a Joanna Gaines girl. You should see my kitchen, bathroom, and washroom, they are very retro. So colorful, it scares me. I want to paint over it all so i don’t have to look at it anymore. I wish i could show you 70’s era lovers, maybe someone could appreciate it. It isn’t often that people come across and authentic 70’s house, at least I don’t think.
