Just a blog about the things i love, all things kitsch! If it's tacky, ugly, campy, cutesy, quirky or wonderful, you'll find it here. You'll also find some vintage and retro things as well. What is Kitsch? Kitsch is pleasingly distasteful. It's melodramatic, overdone, gaudy and tacky or sentimental and folksy. It's so bad that it's cool. Kitsch is either cutsey fun or hideous ugliness, depending on the viewer's opinion. Enjoy the kitsch!
I love this blog :) Thank you!! I am so glad to have followers who appreciate Victorian architecture

Jen Parrish is a phenomenal jewelry artist with a keen eye for all things beautiful and enchanting. It should come as no surprise, then, that her own home is about as Domythic a space as they come, and utterly magical. She shared a few images of her bedroom, each more gorgeous than the last! Two Parrish Relics above. What's your favorite part of your bedroom? I love the original tin ceilings, the little pillowed reading corner. There used to be bookshelves there but I took them down to drape fabric that was the same color as the walls and piled the books in a corner where I could access them better. It was a challenge moving David’s bureau into an already tiny room but somehow we made it all work. Beautiful bags above were embroidered by Medieval Muse and similar styles are available on her Etsy. Do you have any advice to share on building a collection of treasures and making it look so inherently enchanting? Ignore the “rules” and go with your emotions, surround yourself with things that make you happy or remind you of what you love out in the world. Favorite colors, textures, prints. I do like the suggestion of creating visual pyramids or triangles, and try to do that with surface decorating and sometimes on the walls as well. What's your cat Galatea's favorite part of the room? Galatea's favorite spot is on the bureau, particularly when we let Shadow up each night to try to get them used to each other. She loves sitting in the windows, watching the birds and the world go by. Any sunny spots. Her cardboard scratching box, surrounded by pink toys (her favorite!). What are some of your favorite resources? Thrift stores, yard sales, sometimes Homegoods. Loved their clearance section for damaged “parts and pieces” that I can work into something else or just hang on the wall “as is”. Many of my most cherished things are gifts from friends or my mother who is an antique dealer and knows my taste very well by now, and I’m very grateful! Interior Alchemy by Rebecca Purcell is a huge inspiration and I learned to see fabric as a great tool to divide rooms or create warmth within a space through her book. I also love The Stencilled Home for wall painting magic Framed postcard on the wall above is by Cynthia Staples and available here along with Burne-Jones designs here. More Sources: After nearly a lifetime of collecting, I have stopped completely (ok, maybe a few books here and there) until we move to a bigger house in a few years. This one is packed! Ebay is another good source obviously, as you can enter any particular search term that interests you…”William Morris” and “Gothic Revival” were always my favorites to plug in and see what treasures pop up! You never know when or where you will find something wonderful. I went to yard sales last year with my mother to try and find a bookshelf and exactly the right one was waiting for me, along with a gorgeous lion headed writing desk and the huge framed print of Waterhouse’s “Lady of Shalott” that now lives on the wall opposite the bed. All at one sale! That was an exciting, car-filling stop Thank you so much, Jen, for sharing your extraordinarily inspiring home with us!

View On Black Bernkastel-Kues (German pronunciation: [ˌbɛɐ̯nkastəlˈkuːs]) is a town over 700 years old, located on the Middle Moselle river in the district of Bernkastel-Wittlich, in Rhineland-Palatinate, Germany. Bernkastel-Kues is very famous for its wines and the mediaeval market square. The square is surrounded by many well preserved half-timbered houses as well as the Renaissance city hall built in 1608. Especially well-known is the very small and narrow so-called "Spitzhäuschen" (the "Pointed House") which dates back to 1416. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bernkastel-Kues

Queens' College is one of the oldest colleges in Cambridge, dating from the mid-15th century. In the early days the Presidents of the college were forbidden to marry, but this changed towards the end of the 16th century, and around 1597 the President's Lodge was built above the cloisters in order to provide suitable married accommodation. The Lodge is the only substantial half-timbered building remaining in Cambridge.
A renovation project for sure, but this 1930s time capsule house in Harrow, Greater London is both fascinating and quite a prospect.

Snobs sneered at the pebbledash and privet hedges but, as this gloriously evocative series reveals, it was a decade that defined a new age of middle-class aspiration.

An inglenook (Modern Scots ingleneuk), or chimney corner, is a small recess that adjoins a fireplace. Inglenooks originated as a partially enclosed hearth area, appended to a larger room. The hearth was used for cooking and its enclosing alcove became a natural place for people seeking warmth to gather. With changes in building design kitchens became separate rooms, while inglenooks were retained in the living space as intimate warming places, subsidiary spaces within larger rooms.
