- Some have asked to see the house, so I invite you inside.The garden is going to sleep, but there is a lot of color and interest in our rooms. If you like an old style of English decor meshed with Early American, you may enjoy this room.

This room makes me want to curl up and sigh with relief. It is so cozy and welcoming. I think people should decorate with things that they love. It makes them and their home more interesting.
I could very much imagine a room full of ladies, present company included, sitting around on tufted cushions working on needlepoint while the clock chimes the hours. Lots of tea to be poured and sipped, stories to be told. Just a cozy room that says "welcome to my story". Thank you for sharing!
That would be an afternoon well spent!
@@JeriLandersofHopalongHollow I would love to be included in that tea!
@@judywhittlesey4010 wouldn't that be a pleasant time; we would have to add Scones with clotted cream and strawberry jam.
I have no English blood, but I absolutely love decorating in English cottage style. Thank you so much for sharing your home. Just beautiful!
Absolutely loved this video!
I am so sick of everyone thinking we have to decorate in a whitewashed world. Not my style.
Your home is warm, welcoming and cozy!
My friend and I have a CZcams channel all about stitching ( country stitchers) so, your walls really spoke to me!!!
Thank you so much,
Deb
Thank you so much!
I have always had a love/hate relationship with decorating magazines and books. They say no artificial foliage, no clutter, how many teapots do you need, and on and on. Dear Jeri you are amazing and your style goes a long ways in showing how you can create the most wonderful home in your own taste. Your collections are so lovely. You inspire me to get some of my treasures out of boxes and display them regardless of "style". Thank you for the most beautiful video!!
I love to look at decorating books, but in the end I just go my own way. We should surround ourselves with the things we love, no matter what the "experts"tell us or what the latest trend happens to be.
Too hard to keep clean!
Being a cross-stitcher I was VERY interested in your tour. Minimalist...not a word in my decorating style. I love seeing how folks style their homes but minimalism and white are NOT for me either. Candles, family photos and my personal needlework are mixed in every aspect of my home decor. One thing you made me realize today...I'm not alone in my love of collecting things and displaying them around the many rooms of my home. I am so thankful for your willingness to share both your inside and your outdoors with us. Looking forward to more vlogs enlightening and entertaining me!!!:):):)
Vicki, I love to enter a home filled with the makers needlework, nothing is quite as personal, lovely and authentically historical. Most of my needlework pieces were "finds" and about a quarter of them are my own work.
Thank you Vicki! I think I've been collecting antiques since I was 12 yrs old, too old to change now. I just feel more comfortable in a house full of memories and history.
I totally agree - I too am a stitcher and I am finding them fascinating
@@JeriLandersofHopalongHollow I'm a stitcher as well and I was looking at your prints on your shop and they
would make beautiful stitched pieces. A few charting companies would probably love to chart your pieces!
sorry to be offtopic but does anyone know a trick to get back into an Instagram account?
I somehow forgot the login password. I would love any help you can give me
I love everything you do and I love your voice it's so calming thank you for the videos I enjoy everyone
Carmela, Lovely to have you here!
I also love English cottage style. We had to downsize when we moved so the things I have left are the best of a life time of collecting. I have never grown tired of living with these things.
Collections that you "never tire of living with", is exactly how I feel about it.
A beautiful richly layered room full of treasures to linger over.
Very well said Carole
Thank you Carole!
I love love love this room please show more of your home. I absolutely adore English country style. Thank you for sharing this with us
I Will!
Love the way you decorated your home, especially the stenciled walls and all the lovely antiques 💐💐
Peg, The stencil work was quite a job, especially when I was on a 20 ft ladder going up the stairs... I shudder just thinking about it.
@@JeriLandersofHopalongHollow My husband is an artist and has done many stencil jobs in homes and he has told me many times how hard it is to do, you did an amazing job, especially going up that high, not easy to do.
Textiles are where it’s at! Afghans, quilts, pillows, love it!
By all means don't apologise for the length of this video. It was such a pleasure listening to how you pulled all these elements to create such a charming and intimate, cosy room. This was a masterclasses in "storytelling through decor". Your collections and handicrafts are wonderful. Thank you Jeri♥️
OH Good, I sometimes think I go on too long so I stop the video, even though I had so much more to show.
Джерри! Какая прекрасная экскурсия по комнате! Очень понравились семплеры ! Стулья замечательные и коврики тоже. Спасибо!
I love the way you styled this home. It helps preserve history and invokes sweet memories.
Yes...Yes....Yes Lots of pillows and Quilts and padding that is exactly what I love. My daughter went out with a young man and he used to make fun of my pillows everywhere but I’m glad to say they didn’t work out and her current boyfriend is so lovely now.. (he is a keeper). I’m so happy in my space and love collecting Art, pretty plates, cups, teapots, vases & plants. I must say that I have wanted a Green & Blue braided American rug for about 20 years....I think it is time I get one. Thank you for showing us your beautiful home 💐
The braided wool rugs just get better with time. you should get one.
as soon as the camera panned up I thought I had died and gone to heaven. You must feel so blessed to live in such a beautiful home.
Such a lovely room! I can just imagine getting a cup of tea and a book and relaxing for awhile.
My style is eclectic. My house was built 1900. It’s a Federal/Victorian. My house also is not minimalist by any means! I love books. I crochet doilies, hats,mittens. I have beautiful plates above every window and doorway in my kitchen. Norman Rockwell plate collection’s on my dining room walls a wall pocket over flowing with silk flowers. Living plants in several area’s. Basket’s. I was given a small line of very old style school desks! Oil lamps, I love them all! Old jars, bottles. My goodness such loveliness.
Everything is so lovely! The thing I most want to know, Jeri, is this: do you ever sleep? You have created an enormous body of work! So impressive!
I do, but I rise pretty early and my husband says I am tenacious in my work!
What can I do to follow your example Jeri! 😆
So hard for me to wake up early!
Our house was built in the twelfth century and modernised in the sixteenth in Northumberland. I love your decorating style, but your house is positively modern.
LOL! Compared to yours it certainly is! It must be marvelous to live in such a house as yours. Trust me, by American standards, my house is anything but modern.
the sampler you worked in 1982 is very similar to the one I worked in 1962. That was my first embroidered piece. I was 10 yrs old and received a blue ribbon at our town fair. It hangs on the wall in my log farmhouse. I enjoyed your home tour, thanks for sharing. I don't have collections per se and it is rare for me to appreciate seeing them in homes but yours are fascinating, valuable and well curated. My style is functional farmhouse and though it may look like we collect old vintage items, we actually use these things. The glass milk bottles on the hoosier, the various kitchen items and enamelware, the wood dough bowls, the big old cookie jar, the crocks holding potatoes and onions, all are quite experienced and still well used. I like to think about the women who used these items before they came to me, their stories are connected to mine. I imagine you understand this connection as well.
That is so interesting that you could see the age on the Sampler... I was much older than 10 when I stitched it. I use many of my old items, especially kitchen items. More fragile things such a quilts and baskets are for display only. I'm glad you put your wonderful old history items to use. I have a 200 yr old wooden bowl ,passed down in the family. it is a total pleasure to use it.
I have had people ask me to describe my way of decorating and I answer my old English cottage. I want people to walk into our small home. You have achieved this also. What a wonderful room you have.
Thank you!
Just beautiful! I had to come back and watch again.
Loved your room. Very peaceful, a warm throw, book, and cup of hot tea. Just lovely.
Yes peaceful and of course tea
Sherry, My husband loves to read in this room, minus the tea.
How very interesting to see your English/American style room so full of beautiful things. I can identify with some of them as I am English with a Dutch mother. I have quite a few pieces of very dark furniture in my own home because I like the Tudor style of furniture - reproduction. I think the Dutch Delft ware - blue and white - goes very well on the dark furniture. I have some of that, but not a lot now. Thank you for sharing your lovely home :)
I’m binging on Jerrri’s videos they calm my spirit and sooths my nerves. Too wonderful for words. Just discovered you about a month ago. Thanks for the wonderful lessons, fascinating!!
Your things are so beautiful and I appreciate that you know so much about what you have. It's educational!
Your home is beautiful, thank you so much for sharing. It is so my style.
Glad to hear that!
Fun as to how much our tastes are the same. Enjoying this. 😀
It's like traveling through time visiting your home. If all the items in your home could talk we would learn what so many families from the past how they lived. I love love love your home. God bless you and Merry Christmas🎄🎅🤶🎄🙏
Thank you and welcome to this Olde House!
I’m in the midst of binge watching all of your lovely videos. I was so happy to see your hooked rug of the house flanked by flowers! I made the same rug. I love it. I love your home so much!
Oh thank you!
Love your decorating style. I had that pineapple print fabric in my house too.
Lovely home thanks for opening your door to us ❤️
Glad to have you here!
I haven’t english heritage, i am french but all my tastes are the same as yours, i love broderie and i have made a lot of old English sampler ABC , countryside style, some beautiful Lavender&Lace complicated but gorgeous …… it’s so soothing and rewarding , thank you Jeri 💐💐💐💐💐💐🕊
You would love the Sampler kits from "The Scarlet Letter", They have styles from Early American and English to Jacobean, I've had one half-finished in my hoop for over 2 years now!
Its lovely...cozy...I could just smell your cinnamon tea..but..I’d have to have my fireplace going...🙋🏼♀️🌻
We have a fireplace in the room, not safe to use, but a lovely red stove in front of it for warmth and a perfect flame.
Thank you thank you thank you. I have been trying to put my finger on the style that has been in my heart and in my mind for years. I could never quite pinpointed, English country country cottage early Americana, Colonial nothing nothing quite fit. And then quite by accident while looking up something else I literally stumbled on to your CZcams video need I say more I felt like I had finally come home each room that you show the textures the colors the atmosphere is everything my heart has been searching for! I am now with pad and pencil in hand going to organize hunt down and turn my little space into my warm cozy cottage thank you thank you again.
Very Good! If its the style you've imagined, you'll be able to pull it together easily. Have fun and enjoy your wonderful rooms!
So I’ve watched this video again …very interesting and warming 🙏💖🙏
This is my very favorite video. Just a beauitful olde house with all the quaint antiques.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Oh my how perfect ❤ God bless 🙏😇👋🇨🇦💕
Thank you for inviting us in. As warm and cozy as I pictured it being. Please don't forget to show us your studio. I would TRULY love to see your kitchen!
Thank you again!
Lisa, I keep wanting to film my studio and it's such a mess right now I need to spend a few days straightening things out. I'll film it in December.
This was truly amazing and inspiring! I just adore your home!
I love your style. Beautiful. Thank you for sharing.
This is a beautiful video! I loved seeing your needlework and collections. The room is so warm and inviting. I think a house that is all matchy matchy is so boring and sterile! I feel right at home at hop along hollow!
Thank you so much, I love combining different patterns and textures... it makes a room interesting.
So lovely and beautiful!!!! Love the decorating style. I could sit and read for hours in such a room, with a cup of tea of course!
Take a bow Jeri, ur brilliant!
Love-love your video and your beautiful room.
Thanks for taking the time to show in detail!
I would love to see an explanation of the wall stencil and the doll house making, especially the mouse house.
Thanks again
When I made the Mouse house, I journaled the entire thing on my blog; Hopalong Hollow Gazette, starting here: hopalonghollowgazette.blogspot.com/2016/12/the-building-of-cunning-cottagefor-mouse.html You can follow the posts along to see how I built it. I also have an entire video about stenciling, see the video Stenciling the garden room.
Thank you Jeri for sharing your home. Your home is lovely and peacefully. I bet it smell very nice too!
I can still smell the herbs and dried flowers hanging in the room...
Love your videos ❤️ thanks for showing us your beautiful Cottage ❤️ very special!!!
Wonderfullly cozy looking. Thank you for posting the videol
I’m enjoying your videos on collections and decor. I hope you continue to make more with any new items or changes you make to your home.
Yes, I certainly will!
What a joy!
Love it!
Amazing! I get tired thinking of the dusting, lol.
You and me both!
I love...your home. We recently purchased a home and I am still unpacking 6 months later but I am also adding pieces as I find them...now I know my style...lol I thought I was having fits because I didnt fit into country, Americana, etc....all I know is my home is comfy! Thank you for inviting me in for tea!
Robin, have a great time mixing and matching your pieces. More tea to come!
Everything you have is beautiful! 🥰
I love your home it is very warm looking.
You are so very interesting Ms Jeri!
I’m from England
My wife and I bought a little fisherman’s cotttage on the north coast of Scotland
The cottage is nearly 200 years old
It was al painted white.....every room.....we are in the process of victorianising the whole house
Your house is an inspiration
I love your videos
Oh my Gosh, I love your 200 yr old cottage without ever seeing it! What a joy it will be to create the cozy warmth of Victoriana in such an historical home. I hope you will record your journey on your channel... I would certainly watch.
Totally up my alley. I collect old dollhouses, antique dolls, antique anything that looks colonial. 💕
LOVE LOVE LOVE ! 😍
This really I mean REALLY made me so happy- thank you- I really I mean REALLY needed it. ❤ (your samplers are to die for)
What a wonderful surprise to watch your video tour this fall afternoon! Beautiful!!!
The power went out suddenly when I was filming and everything in the room went black, for hours and hours. A tree fell.
So warm & inviting!
Luv ur beautiful English style decor. It looks so interesting, inviting & cozy. I always feel that I have too much but now that you've shared ur home & decorating skills with us, I see that displaying them, presentation & style really makes a difference. Thank u so much for inviting us in ur home. Really enjoy all ur videos. TFS!!!
You are so welcome. We are bombarded these days with down-sizing and minimalism, but the art of "making a house a home" is using your own style and as many wonderful items as you wish ito include in your surroundings
My roots are colonial, and very English. I still adore beautiful fabrics and lots of patterns.
Very glad to hear it, My next video is a Colonial Tea and Colonial herb Garden plan
I love your cozy home.
I so enjoy your videos. They are both relaxing and entertaining.
Thank you for sharing your beautiful space
I remember your blog posts from 10+ years ago! Good to "see" you again. I love all wall art. And you are right. There is an "art" to the placement.
Hi Missy, Good to see you too! I still blog, but infrequently. I love hanging picures.
My style is evidently Old English! Thank you! My siblings never understood me! They’re minimalist’s, they go on and on about clutter. Me I am comforted about pictures, plants, tea pots and yes furniture. Thank you, it’s good to know I am not the only one!
Love the decoys
I believe you and I are kindred spirits. I am an avid stitcher, artist among many other things. Your home is lovely and I thank you for sharing it with me. ❤
We could be!
This video is wonderful. I have enjoyed it so much. Many thanks.
The room is very warm and inviting. During chilly months what a delight to settle into a room such as this. I gravitate to light/pastel colors personally. I adore floral, vertical stripes and paisley prints. Throughout the years I have chosen different styles and color choices, I always come back to my pastels. I am so grateful to have found your channel. It brings me joy. Thank you.
You have a beautiful home I love it.
Hi Jeri. Thanks so much for sharing your home. You have put such a lot of love and thought in how you decorate your room. Trimble Manor is beautiful. Greetings and love from England
❤💛💚
Hello Ruth, nice to have you visiting here from England; a treasure of a country!
❤️ your English Room. I agree with you about white walls. I prefer the dark woods and warm colors . Thank you for sharing. New to your channel.😊
Your house is so darling and charming ❤ I watched your video from the beginning to end hoping it would last a little longer. Thank you for sharing!
It's so funny. I love English/French country style and I love to keep it simple. Your home reminds me of how I grew up and I love it. I live a more edited version of yours. I also try buy used, thrifted, found, etc for about 75% of my home. I try to keep it authentic to the style of a time gone by. I don't do the trendy farmhouse/cottage look, with the wall sayings on canvas, new pottery, etc. I prefer to use old cross stitch sayings and my pottery and dishes are all antique mixed. I also live in less than 1000 square feet, so I have to be very edited. Thank you for the inspiration!
It's true that you can only work within the space you are given. That gives you the option of choosing only the very best things you love living with.
Yes, it is very dark, also contemporary English style is certainly a great deal more minimalistic. An important focus of English or indeed Irish home - style has always been the fireplace, though with more options for heating many homes now have an additional source of heat such as oil fuelled central heating combined with an electric, gas or coal fire or perhaps a wood burning stove.. Thank you for the guided tour. The woven rug and the comfy seats are my favourite aspects. God bless, v
Thanks Vera, yes, this room seems quite dark, another reason for having 7 lamps. Also, much more traditional and cottagey than most. With the combination of American and English decor, I should come up with a new name for the style!
I loved antiques,you’re lifestyle so much gorgeous lovely beautiful.i really appreciate it,excellent channel.i loved your beautiful tea time . I loved English tea time so nice. So sweet voice makes my day fantastic. Thank you so much for your lovely time.🦋💕🌸🐇👼🍵

Hi Jeri, I am so glad you have a new video. Thumbs up! And, O was one of the lucky recipients of your last drawing of the birds with the lark. I had it framed and it looks wonderful. I enjoy your videos.do talented!
Carolyn, Marvelous that you got the print framed, I am so glad you love it!
Absolutely lovely ♥️
Beautiful home! Thanks for showing us around..
This is SO much better looking than the basic heather grey/ white rooms that are popular these days!
Have to agree with that!
Wow, so cozy and warm and beautiful. Love your home.
I love it!!! ❤️🥰
So comfortable and cozy. I really love the dark homey feeling.
You are so generous! Such an enjoyable and wonderful tour. Thank you!

Well very interesting 🧐 I enjoyed your tour and explaining all ...I have had material exactly like your stenciled walls...and I would call my style “eclectic” ...thank you for your sharing 🙏💖🙏 Carolyn
SOme would say mine is also Eclectic... that's good too.
