What 30 everyday things looked like decades ago (31 photos)
Cleaning your home can feel like a trip back in time. You open a box and suddenly you're looking at an old DVD player or a dusty flip phone. It's amazing how quickly our things can become antiques. But today we're not just talking about technology. We've collected photo evidence of how much household items have changed, from subtle to radical. Furniture from grandma's living room, old vacuum cleaners, outfits - all of this is reminiscent of the past.
