I'm On Twitter!

I just got on Twitter. It looks like a great way to keep up with all my customers as well as blog friends. You can find me at https://twitter.com/VictorianTimes .

Here are some more pictures of my new house.



This is a before shot of our dinning room.




We darkened the green and accented with brown. We will be decorating with a somewhat primitive theme so the colors suit better than what was their. We love antiques so they will find a welcome place in our home!

My husband added this T.V. cabinet. Our HDTV fits nicely inside. The doors slide in when opened. We have two civil war reproduction candle lanterns on each side of the plant. With the TV room in the basement we wanted to brighten it up with a dusty yellow color for the walls.

This is one of my favorite additions to the house. It was just a hole in the wall where the previous owners stripped out the fireplace when they moved. There was a lot of damage to the drywall that my husband repaired before putting our new fireplace in. I love to decorate with books. On top of the fireplace you will find some of my pre civil war (1830s) books on the left as well as a civil war Bible and CDV Album. Although the fire place is gas only I still like the looks of the brass log holder and fireplace tools.

Now you may begin to see why I've been so busy to post the last couple of months. I hope now that we have finished most of the work on our house that I can get back into a regular posting schedule. Thank you for all the kind comments and encouragement!

The house is looking lovely, I wish I had the space to put more of my books and things out properly. Oh, well one day...
