A little loon-y and upside down!

Ha! lol! I didn't flip the alphabet images! Oh, well.. you can love them just the same! If you are upside down you must be a little loon-y!

An illustration from the 1864 manuscript of 'Alice's Adventures Under Ground' (the very first Alice book).

Agnes Grace Weld, taken 1857. I LOVE this photo.

Mary Millais, 1865.

I used these images in some art for Kathryn's Soul Journal Blog Party. A most fabulously, fun spooky time. Please come and visit my blog HERE to see how I interpreted them. Lewis Carroll was a fantastic dreamer and whimsy maker but I don't think I would have left him alone with my children.

Duck. Duck. Chicken?

I printed these lovelies out and framed them up for my kitchen.

Don't Count Your Eggs..

A sheet from a 1898 Home Accounting Ledger.

Gone to the birds...

Etiquette

Antique, Handblocked Wallpaper

These wallpapers where in my grandfather's 1790's New England Colonial. They aren't that old, but they are well over 100 years, as one had the date of 1892 on the side. Such lovely colors!

An Invitation to a Party...

I invite to join me at my blog, Down Abbie's Road where I am having some 'guests' over. You can also join the party hosted by Vanessa, of A Fanciful Twist. As a 'treat' for the season, there are some free Halloween inspired clipart offerings at the bottom of my post Down Abbie's Road.

Happy Haunting!

Antique Botanical Drawings

These blooms came from an 1890's Medical Reference Book.

Sorry!

Ugghh.. sorry. I keep duplicating images, as I don't have a decent way of keeping track of what I have posted. I also don't usually have the time to browse through all the categories when I am posting. Please excuse me, I'll try to pay more attention!
