She dreams of salad, and bad wigs...

...and goes around stroking her kitchen.

If I had dreams of horrible decor like this, I'd seriously question whether my drink had been spiked!

It's another glorious creation from the world of Soft Tempo Lounge:

Wow.

  1. Mid-Century mom in the photo sure enjoys her built in Chambers wall-oven and stove top, and the built in refrigerator and dishwasher, all in a bronze finish no less. 1960’s mom in the promo film loves her modern kitchen too ! :)
    Those appliances were very expensive back then, now no one can afford a house to put them in here in the USA :(
    And thank God, Soft Tempo Lounge is back after having their fantastic video creations purged by You Tube. :)

    1. Those appliances might have been expensive, but it took a dedicated film-maker to make everything look as cheap-and-nasty as possible!

      I was so relieved when Soft Tempo Lounge began its slow restoration of its summarily-deleted-by-Google back catalogue. I still have an onerous task ahead, to go back through years' worth of blog posts to restore the links I placed to those defunct videos... Jx

  2. I'm not sure if it was the music or the slowness of the production, sweetpea, but I was transfixed by it all! I'm still slightly dazed and surely confused! xoxo

    1. Be careful! If you get hypnotised by the video, you'll be out there trying to buy burnt orange formica and brown earthenware pots before you know it! Jx

  3. My Great Aunt and Uncle had a midcentury modern house and furniture that was the perfect time capsule well into the early oughts', circa 2005 I think. I marveled at it every decade of my life. A pink tile bathroom with matching pink porcelain fixtures. It's crazy to think they raised two kids in that house, but my cousins were always very good children of their generation, so I suppose that explains a lot. And to think they were able to afford such a nice house on a postal carrier and teacher's salary. Both spending over 30 years in their respect places of work!

    1. Those "time-capsule" houses are the sort of thing that design museums have wet dreams over! Jx
