We found this unfinished wood parquetry at the flea market a couple weeks ago. Parquetry is a geometric mosaic of wood pieces used for decorative effect for furniture or flooring. I love that it looks similar to a quilt and it fits this space above the stairs nicely! #antiquedecor #ouroldhouse #oldhousecharm #oldhouse #oldhouselove #oldhouserestoration #oldhomes #oldhome #oldhouselove #oldhouselovers #greekrevival #restoration #historichomes #historichouse #oldhouselife #historichome #thisoldhouse #cheapoldhousesaved #diy #reno #renoproject #oldfarmhouse #oldhousecommunity #savealltheoldhouses

I want more pics such as this to be normalized. A still photo of day in a life of an old home owner. This is my Saturday morning. A view of the hole in the floor of the summer kitchen with a peek into the attached enclosed porch. Would make a good “I spy with my little eye” game. I’ll go first! I spy with my little eye … old socks that fell on the floor that I use for dusting before I pitch them. • • • #taylorsoldhomerevival #historicsladehouse #renovationlife #renovationrealities #thisoldhouse #fixerupper #oldhouselife #homediy #homerenovation #farmhouserenovation #oldhouserenovation #bhghome #vintagelife #vintageliving #farmhouselife #farmhouseliving #oldhousecommunity #historicrenovation #historichome #myoldhouse #ispywithmylittleeye

This weeks #52weeksofhome theme is “woodwork” which is timely since we just finished restoring the stairs and railing! We added a salvaged newel post at the top in order to cut out a broken piece, replace a missing spindle, and give the whole thing a sturdy anchor. Previously the whole railing was wiggly but not anymore! This beautiful mahogany stair rail is back! Last few photos are before!

This house from 1910 on Peabody Ave in Memphis has an Auction sign in front. It's over 4000 sf and has a carriage house in back perfect for granny flat, adult children that move back in or rental income. It looks rough but I'm hoping someone will buy it that appreciates it and rehabilitates it. Please no one that strips it or scrapes it. I don't know if they could do that in Central Gardens but maybe. We are maxed out with our Myrtle project but c'mon!

A peek into the foyer ~ A new moody picture I took the other day, of our 124 year old foyer. The craftsmanship and the buttery smooth patina of the old woodwork, are two of my favorite things in this old house! I love the unique chair rails on the bottom of the staircase, and I have never seen these before this house! Thanks for stopping by for a visit! 🤎 Gloria.

In order to cut out the broken part of the railing and rejoin it, we bought a salvaged newel post from the amazing @thehistoricalbanyfoundation Parts Warehouse to allow space, but also act as a sturdy anchor for the railing. The railing previously died into the wall. Edward will reassemble the whole thing and hopefully it’ll last another 150 years. 😊 #stairrailing #ouroldhouse #oldhousecharm #oldhouse #oldhouselove #oldhouserestoration #oldhomes #oldhome #oldhouselove #oldhouselovers #greekrevival #restoration #historichomes #historichouse #oldhouselife #historichome #thisoldhouse #cheapoldhousesaved #diy #reno #renoproject #oldfarmhouse #oldhousecommunity #savealltheoldhouses

Another job between jobs was to improve the lighting in the back garden. Now we have dimmable lights around the paving outside the kitchen along with discreet path lights so we don’t trip on our way from the garden to the greenhouse. We also installed up-lighters on the smokehouse (and as a result can confirm that hand digging a 100 foot cable trench is terrific exercise). It’s odd but the lights have transferred the smokehouse from a humble tool shed into something much more operatic. Lighting really does wonders. After a couple of cocktails the shed reminds us weirdly of one of the Achaemenid rock tombs in the cliffs above Fethiye - though the untidy beach plum to the left and the lack of any cliffs give the game away a bit!

Awhile ago I came across this delft teapot missing a lid. Despite missing this key piece, I thought it too sweet to leave behind and it’s sat on this shelf, holding its own. Recently I came across a video by @kenziemariehome and saw how she turned a chinoiserie ginger jar into a tissue dispenser. Now what a fabulous idea! My little Delft teapot is now repurposed 💙 🤍 🫖 🤧 Thanks for the creative idea! #delft #delftblue #teapot #thrifted #thriftedhome #tissue #tissuebox #instainspiration #upcycled #blueandwhitehome #blueandwhitedecor #oldhouse #oldhouselove #oldhousecommunity

🌞 Stepping into sunlight and history every morning! 🌊 I imagine all of our house-hotel’s guests waking up daily to this breathtaking riverside view when lookin’ out what is technically the back door—today it’s what we consider the main attraction of our 1908 home, originally built as a charming hotel. With an antique tall case clock, our propagated fiddle leaf, and our lovable #pug, Piper, adding character to this timeless hallway, every corner tells a story. 🕰️🐾 Nearly a decade here, and we still marvel at the original owners’ genius to flip the house orientation for these serene views. We don’t just live in a house; we’re caring for a small piece of history. 🏡💬 ✨ What’s the unique story behind your home?

Edward started work on the broken part of the railing today. It’s been held together with brackets on the sides. We came up with a plan to cut out the bad part and rejoin it. So tonight he cut out the bad part and then cut a slice of this gorgeous wood. Turns out it’s mahogany. 😍 #stairrailing #ouroldhouse #oldhousecharm #oldhouse #oldhouselove #oldhouserestoration #oldhomes #oldhome #oldhouselove #oldhouselovers #greekrevival #restoration #historichomes #historichouse #oldhouselife #historichome #thisoldhouse #cheapoldhousesaved #diy #reno #renoproject #oldfarmhouse #oldhousecommunity #savealltheoldhouses

This week's minisode is off to a wild start, with Stacy and Daniel discussing their unconventional "words of the year." Then, Stacy talks about her upcoming trip to Japan and shares a story about Google Translate and bidets. That segues unnaturally into a discussion about a common old house problem: animals that die in the walls. Daniel's house has largely escaped this issue. So, he has chosen an unusual way to honor the critters he finds during demolition. Finally, Daniel chats about wrapping up the cottage renovation with a punch list he calls The Apology Tour.

Restoration isn’t easy. For many, it’s just not feasible even if it’s something they value. We’ve faced seemingly endless insurance hurdles, a revolving door of discouraging or disinterested contractors, and exorbitant quotes. Months of searching for alternatives left us further disheartened. But after a year and a half of perseverance, our floors are finally restored to their former glory! THIS is restoration! 🏡✨ Forbo Marmoleum in Withered Pine. 1 & 2 after/before. 3 & 4 close up after/before #restorationoverrenovation #persistancepaysoff #restorenotrenovate #restorationproject #historicpreservation #originalintegrity #originalcharacter #forboflooring #marmoleum #vintagefloor #flooringinstallation #washcohistoric #historichagerstownmd #homeswithcharacter #restoringoldhouses #mdhistorichouses #oldhouserestoration #historichomes #oldhousecommunity #preservingthepast #concretehouse #historicalhouses @forboflooringsystems

I managed to cobble together a little last minute Mother’s Day brunch in my dining room. This space is currently a work in progress. The buffet lamps are lacking shades and the giant crane painting is only there until I can sell it. It’s not really my vibe, but I inherited it, so I figured I’d hang it up for now. I’m contemplating painting the ceiling black and adding a big white ceiling medallion around the chandelier. Everything in this house is always a work in progress, but progress is progress regardless. I’m currently two mimosas deep and enjoying my day. 💐 Happy Mother’s Day everyone😊 #oldhouselove #oldhouse #oldhousecharm #oldhousecommunity #1928house #archeddoorway #arches #diningroom #diningroomdecor #brunch #mothersday #classicstyle #artdeco #americanfoursquare #1920shome

Thinking back to my favorite house. I affectionately call this “the one” because, well, just look at it! 😍⁣ ⁣ This home has a small section in the back that was built between 1820 and 1840 and it was added onto over the years. That gorgeous porch, which I adore so much, was added around 1900 along with that stone wall in the front.⁣ ⁣ The house belonged to a doctor and he ran his practice out of a small building next to the home in the 1880s. It still stands. ⁣ ⁣ It has remained in the same family since it was built! I need to drive out there again soon. The last I heard, they were doing some maintenance to keep her shining. A true Tennessee beauty!⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ #housebeatiful #southernhome #archilover #houselovers #southernstyle #oldarchitecture #housestalker #oldhouses #oldhouselovers #prettycities #oldhousecommunity #ifthesewallscouldtalk #historichomes #housephotography #housesofinstagram #architecturephotography #houseportrait #oldhousesofinstagram #archilovers #tennessee #victorianhomes #rural_houses #ruralhomes

Not your typical Charleston, South Carolina home right? This was built in 1933 by J. C. Long who was a state senator in the 1930s and was later a major real estate developer on the Isle of Palms.⁣ ⁣ The home has a bomb shelter with 18 inch thick cement walls that are floor to ceiling. This was added prior to WWII. This house is in the Wagener Terrace neighborhood.⁣ ⁣ There’s so much to talk about with just the front facade! 😍⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ #housebeatiful #southernhome #archilover #houselovers #southernstyle #oldarchitecture #housestalker #oldhouses #oldhouselovers #prettycities #oldhousecommunity #ifthesewallscouldtalk #historichomes #housephotography #housesofinstagram #architecturephotography #houseportrait #oldhousesofinstagram #archilovers #charlestonsc #charleston #historiccharleston #holycity #prairiearchitecture #eyebrowdormer

1986 - I came across photos of the interior of The Queen from 1986 when Cathy and Tom owned the house. Thankfully she made a photo album of their restoration process. It's priceless to me. * Photos 1-3: They purchased these 2 beautiful sideboards and a small barley twist table. I was lucky that these were left behind and the previous owner from the 1990s kept them as well. * You can see Cathy was way ahead of her time. She had painted the paneling black 🖤 In photo 3, the smaller sideboard was kept in the smaller dining room. Yes, there were 2 dining rooms, but it was later converted into a small bedroom. You can see the plate railing. I still have it and plan to restore it. * Photo 4: The barley twist table and chairs. I love that plate rail. The paneling was put up on several random walls to keep the crumbling plaster from falling off. * Photos 5-8: 2018 The dining room Before and during clean up of Marty's possessions and getting rid of the pet stained carpets. The Western light is so beautiful in the afternoon. * Photo 9: A shot of the Parlor looking into the dining room back in 2018 after being cleaned out. * Photo 10: Tom Dawson. Owner in the 1980s. I believe he is still alive but I haven't been able to connect with him. Cathy passed away from breast cancer before he sold the house in the 1990s. #oldhousecommunity #oldhouses #historichouse #victorianbythebay #moneypit #restoration #diy #victorianhouse

This is the original nursery in our 124 year old house! When we moved here, we decided to put all of the antique baby furniture that we used for our six kids, and an antique bed for our guests to use here. On this side of the room is the antique iron youth bed, the old Hoosier cabinet I used as a baby changing table, the vintage Easter baskets our kids used every year and old bunnies that I collected and love! Sweet memories come flooding back to me of my baby days, when I step into this room! If you come for a visit, this is the room you would stay in! Happy Mother's Day this Sunday! 🤍🌸🌿🌸🤍

True Tales From Old Houses is back! Season Eleven is off to a good start with a fresh, new logo and an episode packed with old-house fun. This week, Stacy and Daniel answer a listener's question about public art and painted brick. Are public murals a good idea? How are neighborhoods affected? Is painting a giant orange wizard on a building ever a good idea? Daniel has big feelings about all of it. Then, Stacy and Daniel welcome Barry + Jordan, better known as The Brownstone Boys. This Brooklyn-based renovation duo quickly fell in love with Brownstones and each other. Their work combines the love of preservation and restoration with functional, modern touches. Since 2018, they have been featured in magazines such as Dwell, Architectural Digest, and House Beautiful. They have also been the focus of two TV shows for the Magnolia Network, The Point of View and In With the Old. Listen wherever you enjoy your favorite podcasts or via the link in our bio.

There were so many homes being built all around the country around the turn of the century. The late 1880s and into early 1900 were booming in many cities. Here’s a great example of that boom in Hattiesburg, Mississippi. Circa 1900. This home is located in the Hattiesburg Historic Neighborhood.⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ #housebeatiful #southernhome #archilover #houselovers #southernstyle #oldarchitecture #housestalker #oldhouses #oldhouselovers #prettycities #oldhousecommunity #ifthesewallscouldtalk #historichomes #housephotography #housesofinstagram #architecturephotography #houseportrait #oldhousesofinstagram #archilovers #hattiesburg #hattiesburgms #victorians #victorianhomes #victorianarchitecture #hattiesburghistoricneighborhood #historichattiesburg #queenanne

The stairs are only half way done, but they’re really looking good! From top to bottom, Edward is carefully adjusting and resecuring each tread and original moulding. This will also stabilize some loose spindles. Each part had original square nails so it’s likely never had significant work done to it. Not too bad for 150+ year old staircase. #staircase #ouroldhouse #oldhousecharm #oldhouse #oldhouselove #oldhouserestoration #oldhomes #oldhome #oldhouselove #oldhouselovers #greekrevival #restoration #historichomes #historichouse #oldhouselife #historichome #thisoldhouse #cheapoldhousesaved #diy #reno #renoproject #oldfarmhouse #oldhousecommunity #savealltheoldhouses

Good morning Divas. 💕 This garden lover plant nerd doesn’t grow much in the way of houseplants, but when I do… only the fussiest.

The Eastlake trim and double porch were added around 1880. ⁣ ⁣ It’s located in the College Hill Historic District in Brownsville, Tennessee. ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ #housebeatiful #southernhome #archilover #houselovers #southernstyle #oldarchitecture #housestalker #oldhouses #oldhouselovers #prettycities #oldhousecommunity #ifthesewallscouldtalk #historichomes #housephotography #housesofinstagram #architecturephotography #houseportrait #oldhousesofinstagram #archilovers #brownsvilletn #eastlakearchitecture #victorian #tennessee #gingerbreadtrim #historicbrownsville #victorianarchitecture

This beautiful morning is making it hard to get myself to work when all I want to do is hang out here 😅 I can’t wait to get some plants and string the porch lights, but all in good time! #porch #porchdecor #porchlife #victorianporch #wicker #wickerfurniture #whitewicker #floralfabric #embroidery #morningvibes #oldhouse #oldhousedecor #oldhousecommunity #thriftedhome #thriftedhomedecor

I know you're getting tired of all the behind the walls stuff - but energy efficiency is so important for an old house, I just had to share these updates at the #charmingcottage ! We have done serious insulation updates, replaced the antique boiler and are installing a heat pump hot water heater. This place will be so much warmer/cooler with much more affordable utility bills in the future! Details are in today's blog post (link in profile) . . . #energyefficienthome #oldhouseenergyupgrade #oldhousemodernupdates #restoreandrenew #oldhousecommunity #mainerenovation

Just a little something about us! 💙 Throughout our marriage, my husband J.R. and I shared a love of old houses and old things! We lived in several old houses, and we went to antique stores, auctions, yard sales and flea markets often to find treasures! We carefully picked out antiques that we wanted to enjoy using daily, and love seeing every morning and every night. Some of our antique furniture we were fortunate to have passed down to us from both of our families. We always said that we couldn't take them with us when we go, but that we hoped our six kids would enjoy some of our antique "trusty old friends" when we were gone! Thank you all for following along with me here! It means a lot to me! My late husband J.R. was so happy and proud about me being on Instagram! 💙 Gloria.

*Update: please disregard the 2nd photo. My smug, ex-husband is standing there like he did something. I assure you he did absolutely nothing. Painted Kitchen Floor I was recently asked about the process I used to paint my kitchen floor, so here goes… We started with a raw pine floor. I primed it with Farrow and Ball wood floor primer. If it had been a floor with a finish on it, I would have lightly sanded it first. Then I used a coat of Farrow and Ball James White in the modern emulsion finish. Next I cut a poster board into the largest square I could get. I wanted large diamonds because the room is big. I would have done a smaller square in a smaller room. I used the square as a pattern and traced around it on the floor to create diamonds. I taped off each diamond with the tape going into the diamond that was going to remain white. This process took a long time. Next I painted every other diamond with Farrow and Ball Cooking Apple Green in the modern emulsion finish. If you want your floor to weather naturally, you can stop here. If not, I would recommend putting a top coat of satin or matte water-based poly on top to keep the floor protected. Do not use oil-based poly. It will yellow with time. I am NOT a floor expert. This is how I did my floor. Hope it helps! #paintedfloors #paintedkitchenfloor #oldhousecommunity
