Welcome to all the new subscribers joining The History Room with Debi! 🎉 And as always, if you've been with me for the entire journey, thank you so much for supporting my efforts!

I am so incredibly grateful to see this community growing, and I’m thrilled that you are enjoying our short trips into the weird, fascinating, and lesser-known facts of history. I am having such a blast creating them! :-)

Since there are so many new faces here, I would love to hear from you:

What bizarre historical events, eras, or mysteries would you like to see covered in our upcoming videos? Drop your requests and ideas in the comments below! 👇

Also, a quick reminder for both our new friends and long-time viewers: make sure to keep your eyes peeled while you watch! There is a paintbrush marked with the initials DAP hidden somewhere in the cinematic details of most videos (unless I forget to include it, lol!) Let me know in the comments when you spot it! 🖌️✨

Have a fantastic day!

The History Room with Debi

Hello all! Again, to those of you who have been with me since the beginning of this journey, thank you so much!
Have you noticed I've changed my channel name? I wanted a more broad name, so I can include fun history tid-bits of information I find along the way. I think its fun to have cocktail trivia, but also the long form, relaxing ambience videos while you work or focus. Now I can include all types of history videos, the fun, the serious, music and the relaxing.
Any suggestions, please let me know! Thanks again for being a subscriber, it means a ton to me! Hey, we are up to 120 subs! Whooohooo! :-)

Hello all! Thank you again for supporting my efforts on YouTube! I am still having a marvelous time creating art, history and music videos! Since art and history are 2 of my favorite subjects, this makes sense! I just released my 3rd official music video. This one is a tribute to all of the female early aviators, wow what brave women to buck the system like that! The song is called "She Took The Sky" and in the video you will see actual footage of Amelia Earhart and Ruth Nelson.

You can now download my 3 music videos on your favorite music streaming service, my music name is MissDebi27, you'll find my songs under that name.

Coming up.... I'm very excited about a new concept I will be adding to my video types. I always wonder what happens AFTER a historical event, so now I will be researching and creating some short videos about how things changed or things that came out of historical events, some pretty cool information! I hope you will enjoy those too! I will be working on them starting this week, hopefully I will have one to post next week!

Thank you for subscribing, if you have a friend that like history, art and music, feel free to invite them to subscribe too, it's FREE! :-)
See you soon!

Hello all! So, we are at 117 subscribers as of this morning! I am so excited, thank you for being my original subscribers and being with me at the beginning.

I am still having a blast creating historical ambience rooms with relaxing music, so much so that I started creating my own music! I even started creating songs about specific historical events and create a music video to go along with the new songs. It is a slow process, but very rewarding. I think it is a fun way to learn about history, or if you are a history buff, a fun way to give a nod to the past. We need to continually learn from history, or as they say, we are doomed to repeat it!!

Today at 11:30, my second music video and original song will post on YouTube, it is about the privateers in the Revolutionary War. A fun history topic for sure!

My original songs are slowly making it to Spotify, iTunes, etc... I will start adding the links to my videos as I get them. I will always give first access to my music videos, here on YouTube before they make it on the music streaming services, so please stay tuned and subscribe for more History Tunes!

Thank you all again for supporting me! If you'd like to hear a song about a historical event, please let me know! Spoiler alert, the next song is about Amelia Earhart!

Hello again! Well, I am having so much fun creating, I was experimenting with creating fun history storytelling videos, and came up with a music video. Ok, Ok, it's not like a professional job, but it was a lot of fun to create. I was hoping it would be a fun way for younger generations to learn history.... or at least think its not as lame as they might think it is :-) Its so important not to repeat our mistakes in history. I think we need some of these lessons today more than ever. I hope you enjoy my take on this bit of history, I think you'll figure it out once you see it. It will post tomorrow, April 22, at 8:15am.
Thank you again for all of my loyal subscribers! We are up to 40, yahooo! Hey, it grows each week.
Do you think I should change my channels name, something more generic to reflect history and or learning history, or history fun, or musical history, etc..? What are your thoughts, please let me know!
Thanks for everything, I'm having a blast creating, I hope you enjoy it!

I just released another ambience video, with a 1930's Original Boho Paris room. This is where the bohemian movement started! I thought it would be cool to show how an original Boho room may have looked. This was a movement to reject the ideas behind the conventional Industrial Revolution and rigid Victorian-era social norms, which emphasized stability, wealth, and conventional behaviors. You can imagine, artists and writers gravitated to this notion, focusing on personal expression over material success.
My next video is another artist's lyre, Gustav Klimt - one of my absolute favorites! He was an Austrian painter who was a prominent member of the Vienna Art Nouveau movement (the Secession). He is known as a Symbolism Painter. "Symbolism was a late 19th-century art movement (c. 1880s–1900s) originating in France and Belgium that rejected realism and impressionism to express subjective emotions, ideas, and spirituality" (MET). So painting feelings instead of what you see. It is thought that his use of gold in his paintings and the Byzantine imagery was a result of his visits to Venice and Ravenna, both famous for their beautiful mosaics.
Have you been finding my hidden paintbrush in my videos? Some are really tough, others are super easy, lol! I tried to mix it up a bit.
Thanks again for being here in the beginnings of this channel. We now have 35 subscribers, yahoo! Someday maybe we will cross 100! So thank you so much for being apart of my journey, I just love creating these videos, even if no one is watching, except for you fine folks!! :-) Thank you again!

Just wanted to let you know I just released another ambience video yesterday. It is a 1940's lighthouse keeper's room, well, what I think it could've looked like back then.... well, maybe I made it a bit more cozy than they regularly were?! If any lighthouse keepers watch this video, I'd love to know how it was or is today. I know in some places you can stay the night in a lighthouse, how cool! Have you ever done that?

Oh, and our first sighting of the hidden paintbrush! Wayyyy to go, @timotheevernier5055 !! Thanks for telling me you found it!

Ok, we are now up to 30 subscribers, yahooo!! Hey, it gets larger each week, again, thank you to everyone who is with me at my start, it means a ton to me. I am still having a blast creating these, especially the historical rooms, they are fun to dream up!
Keep looking for that hidden paintbrush, let me know if you find any more!

Hello there my 24 Subscribers!! The number is climbing, thanks so much! Just a quick note of thanks. This YouTube thing is tough, it is hard to get new subscribers. But, I have to say, I am still having a blast creating these rooms, its the designer in me when I was a little girl building Barbie "houses" with my best friend, out of books and jewelry boxes, lol! Ok, ok, that really dates me! This is almost the same, I think up an idea for a "cool" room, knowing I am a history and art fanatic, and put it into action, using all sorts of products, Ai, my drawing on Procreate, music companies.... it is such a blast! So even if I never get to ..... well, 100 subscribers :-) it is so fun, it turns out it's great therapy, so its a win/win for me, no matter what.
So thank you for being, hopefully my very first subscribers, it truly means a lot to me!
Ok, on to finish another video... this one is based on a queen's room, and the music I picked is somewhat upbeat, very similar to the show Bridgerton! Yep, this one has been really fun to to. Look for it in the next day!

Oh, and don't forget to give me your ideas for any rooms you'd like me to create!
Have a wonderful Sunday!

Just posted a long video and short, featuring my Kraken Attacking image. So happy to finally feature my original Kraken woodcut design in a video! For those who have followed my art since the early days of the antique paper prints, this one is for you.

Can you find where I hid my DAP paintbrush this time? Some of the videos, it is pretty hard to spot the paintbrush!! :-) Sorry!

Have a great day!
