Don’t you love it when the sun is bright and streams in through the windows creating an interplay of light and shadow in your home? I know cats love it as they shift to follow the light. I am more a shade person and will shift from the sunlight into the shade, but I still love to see the beams of light moving across my home.

My dress is a super-feminine lace dress from Gizza called Cara. It is very demure and feminine from the front, though there is a bit of a surprise from the back as you shall see.

I am relaxing in the living room from my new cottage by dust bunny that I picked up at The Arcade. Through the windows you can see the greenhouse as well. The side tables and the pitcher of baby’s breath and the book on the far table are all from the dust bunny collection at The Arcade. Scarlet Creative’s Amelie sofa seems made for this sweet little cake of a house. I changed the pictures in the frames from the DRD frames I got at December’s Arcade. I thought it might be fun to put in old family photos, so the pictures are of my grandmother, great grandfather, great-great-great grandfather, a family reunion in 1901 and other old family photos.

I mentioned a surprise. The back of the dress is a bit more flirty. I brought in some of the furniture from 8f8’s Tuscan dining room, the table and chairs, adding some older chairs from Apple Fall. The curtains that close off the bedroom are a mix of the 8f8 Tuscan curtains and older curtains from Half-Deer. 

I have the table set for a tea party thanks to the wonderful set from erratic. It really does seem as though this house and the erratic set were made to go together 

This gives you a long view of my home and a nice look at the Oxford heels from The Secret Store I am wearing. The women in the back are my great-great grandmother and my great-great-great grandmother. 

The detail on the dress is amazing, with lace appliqué on lace overlay.  The undo from Homage has a soft romanticism that suits. 

PXL Creation’s Aery was released at Skin Fair and is gorgeous! The earrings are from Paper Couture.
