I like the fact that they are not furnishing it, but just preserving it so you can see the details of the architecture instead of how it was lived in. <br /><br />DaleDale Flutyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18394068724717340323noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6739677486178160376.post-70034033367845680072013-03-12T21:47:45.833-04:002013-03-12T21:47:45.833-04:00I agree Elizabeth, there is just something very fa...I agree Elizabeth, there is just something very fascinating about old homes, especially when they are kept up and you can see the old furnishings. I was fortunate to grow up in Washington DC so I spent a lot of time at Mount Vernon in Virginia. Was also lucky enough to spend quite a few weekends at Williamsburg, VA in the Old Town. Such beautiful places to visit.<br /><br />Not sure I'll be making a mini version of the book. Don't have a coffeetable to put it on. HAHA! Actually hadn't thought of that so might have to work one up real quick. :-) Maybe once I get a job I can actually buy the book and not borrow from the library.<br /><br />Thanks!<br /><br />DaleDale Flutyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18394068724717340323noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6739677486178160376.post-24360077485787642152013-03-12T08:22:13.560-04:002013-03-12T08:22:13.560-04:00I've always loved the house on the book's ...I've always loved the house on the book's cover --Drayton Hall.

In looking at the photos, they remind me of what I saw in the Phoenix Museum showcasing the American Collection of the Thorne Rooms by Eugene Kupjack. He used to be the Grand Master of miniatures and his work was meticulous in its details and in the execution of translating scale. There is something about old homes and they always hold a fascination for others, regardless of where you go throughout the world. Are you planning on reproducing one of the doll's houses from the book? I hope that you will make mini version of the cover to include in your own mini book collection as a coffee table book until you can have the full sized one to cherish.<br /><br />elizabethelizabeth shttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09042037455600427075noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6739677486178160376.post-18732681899154670822013-03-09T22:14:08.029-05:002013-03-09T22:14:08.029-05:00Thanks everyone!

LOL). We have an outdoor museum nearby where I live with very old rural buildings, mostly farmhouses. It's very fascinating, they even had their beds in the kitchen (trunk beds, we call them "Alkoven") and you can easily recognize that the people were indeed much smaller than today. Have fun with this impressive book and get inspired! ;O)<br /><br />Greetings<br />BirgitBiWuBärhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16624262663621307478noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6739677486178160376.post-30654739154355700502013-03-08T09:39:45.768-05:002013-03-08T09:39:45.768-05:00thank you for sharing that book, I really liked lo...thank you for sharing that book, I really liked looking at the inside of those houses.<br /><br /><br />Marisa :) Marisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08484302423812250789noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6739677486178160376.post-43280413662975736672013-03-08T03:09:21.503-05:002013-03-08T03:09:21.503-05:00Very interesting book, a book you can lose yoursel...Very interesting book, a book you can lose yourself in for hours. Yes they had a very beautiful style and very beautiful furniture and interiors at the time. But it was not a good life, well neither for the rich and certainly not for the poor. 50% chance to grow up and the average life expectancy was not high. Thanks for showing.<br />Hugs<br />Wyrnaafairytalecometruewyrnahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16668033557155146856noreply@blogger.com
