Inside, some pretty gorgeous French blue china:
An old-timey shopping list...
Honey, don't forget the 4 bales of cotton and the 40 pounds of butter! |
Cotton from the fields...
and a loom to weave the cotton into tapestries...
The bedroom was what we might call minimalist rustic by today's standards...
Compare that to this sort of thing today...
They even had actors playing characters from time period, which felt super weird and uncomfortable to me (see more on this below)...
Not to mention creepy dolls to add a cherry on top of that weirdness sundae.
Yike-o jike-o's! |
Here's the guest quarters...couldn't you see that rag rug selling at Anthropologie for like $150?
Oh here we go. This one used to be for sale at Urban Outfitters:
The kitchen was housed in an entirely separate building to prevent fires. Herbs, chilis, and garlic hung from the ceiling to dry. There was also a smoke house to preserve meats (it was too dark to take a picture).
I forgot this guy's name. |
Henry |
His name was Maurice or something, and he was only four months old! |
