Godey's Lady
A Victorian Resting Place
Welcome to my Victorian Resting Place. A Place where people who are just a little tired of the 20th century and would like to rest for just a little while in the 19th century when life was a little slower and softer!
I hope to have Godey's Ladys Book Fashion Plates, lifestyles and information
on Victorian life.
I will also have a page of my favorite recipies along with
a few Victorian favorites
and maybe a page with JUST A LITTLE about my
grandkids!
Since Christmas is my favorite time of year I will have a page
on holidays in the Victorian times.
I work as a tour guide at an 1860's home and my husband and I belong to a Contra Dance Group that does 1860's dances in costume.
Please let me know your interest and what you might like to see on my site.
The following links will take you to different pages at my *home* or at the bottom of the page I placed a table to aid you in your tour. Please visit each and ENJOY
I would also like to say something about graphics. I have found some of the most beautiful graphics to use at my *home* and have tried to give credit to the wonderful people who created them! BUT I have saved so many and tried to list as I saved. Well, you know about paper! I have lost so many lists. If you see graphics here that belong to you, PLEASE let me know so I can provide a link to your site! I strongly believe in giving credit where credit is due, so please let me know!!
It has been my dream for quite some time to have group for victorian lovers like the other groups I belong to. A place where we could gather to share our love of the victorian era. Starting on such a task was more than I could handle, but in discussing my idea with Michele of Victorian Background and Images, she agreed to be a co-founder and out of this dream, The Victorian Gathering Place was born.
I invite you to follow the link below and see if you would like to be a member and join the fun. We have a lot going on and would love to have you join us!
