1950's boiler suit - Making stylish and practical overalls
I have a lot of work to do in my new house, but I'm so excited and happy and can't wait to move in! These boiler suits will be perfect for all the restorations, painting, building furniture and house work I need to do... And I may make one more for the summer!
Do you like the change I made to the hem? Would you prefer it as it is on the pattern? Let me know in the comments!

Hello my darlings, This video is for all you cat and dog moms that are looking for a cute set of PJ's which are not a cat/dog hair magnet! I have the solution for you: make your own PJ's using a fabric that's shiny on the outside and warm on the inside! Also I'd like to introduce you to Gismo, the new addition to our family.

    I agree with you in some aspects. No one should be forced to be something else, totally true. However I do have vintage values and I would have loved to live in that time. I do know some things were wrong, but personally I would have loved to live during the late fifties.

    My hair is layered, with my bang pieces being about 5 inches, and the longest being about 7.5 inches, so a little below shoulder length. I replicate these setting patterns, but it never looks too right. Would you recommend pin curls or foam rollers or those spiky Velcro rollers you have for the length of my hair?

    I lived in the fifties and it was pretty good. Her rendition of the role of women is incorrect. First of all what is wrong with a woman staying home and rising children? It is the rule of nature. Women could go to college and have careers. My mother went to college and was a teacher for a while, but she preferred to stay home with her four children. My father never beat her and always asked her advice on decisions.

    • @ariettasvintagelife

      There's nothing wrong with a woman staying at home, as long as it is her choice (I mention that in the video). It's great that your mom had a happy life, that she chose for herself, but not all women had that opportunity. Also, what about Black people and gay people? They were treated so terribly and that is all in historical facts...
