It's scrumptious!
Victorian Homes Magazine Winter 2013 is finally in my hands.
If you want some serious holiday inspiration like you haven't seen in a long time, you need this issue.
I am not just saying that because I have a couple articles in there either.
In fact, this is one magazine that I enjoy subscribing to.
(my article)
I have an extra copy to give away.
Just leave a comment to enter.
Here are a couple of my article pages filled with some of my Christmas decor..
Lots of tips and ideas, etc.
Also, I wrote the article for the cover image.
I could move right in :)
Beckett Media (which owns Flea Market Decor, Cottages & Bungalows, Victorian Homes and Romantic Homes, just to name a few) has a wonderful shop site called PlaidParasol.Com . They happen to carry some of my jewelry, cards, labels and prints.
I have spied a few things I might neeeeed :)
Look at this cake plate, oh my!
Fun stuff, they carry so much lovely treasure, take a peek here.
As for the Winter 2013 issue of Victorian Homes Magazine, I took a few bad pics (my good camera is still trying to be Frankenstein resuscitated at a camera hospital as I type)...
But it's unreal, serious inspiration to the max.
There is traditional Victorian decor, mixed with new Victorian style.
Sooooo gooood!
What a warm dreamy kitchen, no?
I love this entire vignette below.
Be still my heart...
This reminds me of Peter Pan in ways I can't even tell you...
Just awesome.
This issue really blew me away, it's so full of awesomeness.
I wish this was my room.
I think the reason I never had children (or the calling) is because I feel like a kid myself.
Always and forever.
It's like, the case is aging, but the instrument inside is still like new ;)
Imagine having a fire place like this?
Major huge?
Major fab.
I love so many styles of decor.
Traditional Victorian sweeps me off my feet.
When it's really done up fancy like, it's almost as though you are peering into a doll house, no?
Looooove this bedroom...
I am telling you, so many awesome tid-bits.
I love ice skates.
When I was a kid I used to ice skate and roller skate like it was nobody's business.
Ooooo, heavenly red silk...
If this isn't dollhouse perfection below, I don't know what is?
Imagine being in that room?
Hello fainting.
So beautiful and elegant.
And then there are articles that have images like the one below as well.
Isn't that just beyond inspiring???
Love it!!
Those are just some small snippets in a choc full issue.
Anywhooo, like I said...
I will priority mail an issue to a winner.
Just say something in comments, and I'll enter you.
Like, have you ever ice skated?
Do you like ginger bread?
I am so obsessed with the gingerbread houses on pinterest lately.
Every break I take you will find me pinning here these days.
I am turning into a Pinterest wacko.
I barely started pinning really this year, and I barely really joined facebook in May 2013.
I am slow, but once I plunge...
I get obsessed, I know.
(probably why I should stay away from such things, haha!)
Although my facebook account won't let me friend or like anyone, what's up with that?
I hit "like" but nothing happens.
Is it because it's a business account??
Phooooey!
OKay, see you sooon with a magazine winner!
Loooove, V
ps:
Have any of you Jane Austen fans seen the movie Austenland (the site is hilarious)????
What did you think?
