    New Bedroom!

    Just don't use linseed oil! According to Leigh and Leslie Keno, you should never put linseed oil on furniture. They said that the best thing to use is a soft beeswax polish.

    Loungers' Pets

    Can everyone's pets come and live at my house? I realized that I have posted pictures of the ever lovely and vivacious Miss Mollyanna Pussypants (a.k.a Molly), but I haven't posted any pictures of the lil' squirt, Gertrude McGillicuddy (a.k.a. Gertie). Here she is doing her best imitation of...

    Loungers' Pets

    lol My cat Molly will only drink water from her special cup on the nightstand next to my bed. In order to keep her from drinking out my glass of water, I had to give Molly her own glass. Now she won't drink from anything or anywhere else.

    Loungers' Pets

    My moms cat, Slick, plays fetch with straws. And they can only be blue straws or he won't have anything to do with them. Which amazes me because I thought cats were color blind. My cats have a paper fetish as well. They love to sit on top of it, no matter what the size. If there is a...

    Leatte - You should go down to the Strip District and take a picture of yourself sitting at the soda fountain at Klavon's. http://www.klavonsicecream.com/ And then you should eat an ice cream soda!

    Show us your hair do's....

    Thanks! I found the fabric when we were cleaning out my grandma's house. It was a remnant just big enough to make a small set of cafe curtains for my bathroom. The cool thing is, my grandma had made drapes for her house of the same fabric (this was the leftover piece that I found) and I have...

    Help me accessorise an Edwardian Walking Suit

    For inspiration, here's a picture of the teens toque that I have. (Excuse my messy unpainted living room in the background!) I had to lighten the picture a bit to show the hat's detail.

    Help me accessorise an Edwardian Walking Suit

    *drool* Gorgeous hat pictures. Now I have to post a picture of the toque I have. Butterick 4826 is a repro pattern for Edwardian blouses. I think any of those blouses would look especially pretty under the suit as well.

    Help me accessorise an Edwardian Walking Suit

    I think a square-necked shell underneath would look best. When you look at pics of teens suits, the shirt's neckline underneath is almost always straight across. I think the suit would look smashing with a toque for a hat as well. I have an Edwardian toque at home that I'll take a picture of...

    he is gone now

    I'm sorry to hear of your loss. A friends' parrot would do a perfect imitation of the telephone ringing and laugh at you when you picked up the phone. The intellect of these little creatures is amazing and makes for very strong bonds that go beyond simple pet ownership. My thoughts are with you.
