For the love of Victoria's special books




I was first introduced to Victoria and there special books at age 18 by my mom and they are now intertwined with who I am and what I love, filled with such nostalgia and everything it brings to mind for me like certain decorating ideas such as my most favorite which is desks with drawers and cubbies perfect for writing letters or a journal entry or keeping up on home care and the desk holds all the little trinkets that you may need like calligraphy and fountain pens with bottles of ink and wax and pretty rose wax seals which I have just ordered for the first time and am trying to patiently await there arrival.



Other ideas such as a small table with pretty white tablecloths to hold a journal and a cup of tea.



Shelving full of baskets and boxes and linen, I remember in my childhood room having floor to ceiling shelves put in my closet and what fun it was to decorate with baskets and boxes and folded blankets.



 Another favorite were the pretty pictures of vanity tables with a special  chair perfect for taking care

of hair and skin with the table full of pretty little bottles and trinkets . 




And finally  all the pretty pillows to place on your bed and make it a special place to retreat to after a long day.



There are just so many special decorating ideas to glean from these books and to me I think they

are timeless as well and just make a home and a bedroom feel so cozy and conducive to pastimes

that bring you joy.

The two books are Victoria Intimate Home and Victoria Bedrooms
