I've always been drawn to the Victorian Era (1837 -1901), the Edwardian Era (1901-1910),
and the Roaring Twenties. From the Victorian architecture with ornate designs and picturesque porches to the fashion, hairstyles, shoes, jewelry, furniture, old books, you name it! I'm not sure I would have liked wearing those corsets and long heavy dresses, but they were really pretty to look at. My dream would be to live in one of those old houses someday and restore it to its natural beauty. I imagine myself climbing the old creaky stairs, up to an old dusty attic, and finding forgotten treasures there. So, that is what has inspired me to start creating things that possibly could have been found then, or at least have the feel of Victorian. I've always wanted to try some of these ideas, and now I've made time in my schedule to make some.
All the pieces are recycled/up-cycled/re-purposed finds, and are completely redesigned with bits of Victorian ephemera, antique staining, decorative bits of papers, jewelry and more. Everything that I will make will purposely be intended to look a hundred years old or more, some more-so than others, with imperfections, age, and such. So, check back often, as I will be adding more to the collection. So many ideas!
If you see something that has been sold or you need a gift for a special occasion, just let me know,
and I will make a special piece, just for you!
Thank you!

This little handmade book looks like it truly is 100 years old, and could have been found in an old dusty attic, hidden away in a trunk. The texture created on the cover and back cover looks like old worn leather, and the cameo makes this a unique and very special piece. The pages are super thick, just like they were back then in old photo albums and such. And, although there are only 8 pages, they are full of charm & decorated with lovely Victorian ephemera, wallpapers, and quotes. Stained edges and pages make it look authentic, and the dark stained ribbon keeps the book closed. There is even room to write a thought or a secret on each left page. Made with loving care in the true style of Victorian. This would make a great gift for Valentine’s Day, Mother’s Day, for a bride-to-be, for yourself or a very special friend. Measures 4” wide by 4” tall.
