Show & Tell Friday...Miss Bri's Victorian Nursery

Welcome to Show & Tell Friday ,
This week I wanted to share with you, my daughters Victorian Nursery.



This is her special place to Dream and play.. to be a little girl forever and never grow up. This is the place where she slumbers and continues in her dreams of childhood things.
We found the 100 year old antique bed last year. She loves it. Her Grandpa John, built her a pink trunk that holds all her dress up things.




This is an antique bureua her Gramma Colleen gave her, which was in her family for many years.

As you see, Miss Bri loves dolls. We have been collectiing antique dolls now for the last several
years.





Remember the Victorian Cottage Doll House ??? We are still working on it... but it is finally getting there. We papered the walls and got a little bit of furniture.

And what's a Victorian Nursery without books too ??


These are the lovely antique reproductions of Victorian paper dolls and books. They are beautifully illustrated.



And these sweet books are the real thing dating from the 1800's. They are delightful, yet very fragile.

There are plenty of cozy spots to read a book here.


Don't you just LOVE her child size chaise lounge ???
Annie thinks it is very comfy and cozy !!!
I hope you enjoyed her precious nursery.
Please stop by my other blog Garboodles Soup
to find out a sweet story about a lovely doll that is here in her nursery.
Have a great day !!!

  13. What a gorgeous and well thought out room! It must of been fun decorating it.:)
    I wonder what stories are behind all your treasures? It would be neat to know.

    I am trying to decorate my girls room. I am going for the Shabby Chic look. It looks so feminine and girly to me. (Which both of my girls are)

    My friend who loves Victorin would love to see this room. Thanks for sharing. I enjoyed the tour very much. :)
