Well I'm actually using this blog now. . . so. Paula or Paulanne, 24, Catholic, my latest obsession is my new husband, I like "traditionally" feminine things like sewing and baking. I do not believe in an idealized 1950s world, though I do enjoy the women's fashion [and the first bustle era]. if you have porn on your blog, repent! also I'll block you. If you think all women should be obedient to all men you don't know what obedience actually is. My main is paula-of-christ.

at dinner people were talking about how much they cried during their weddings and my one cousin said she was SO determined not to cry, made it through the entire ceremony, but then during the reception her husband leaned over and asked 'hey, do you want me to get together a plate of roast beef and hide it in our room so we can have Night Meats?' and she went 'night meats?' and started sobbing because that was so romantic to her
I forgot to update this post, but here it is on our wedding day 7 months ago!
My Cape-Veil Is Ready
A video of my veil made by the old user catholic-shieldmaiden. She requested I keep her name anonymous but did give me permission to post all of these. I CANNOT wait to see it in real life, it is exactly what I wanted! Pictures of it as well:
I cannot wait to get married and I will get to try it on at my final fitting this weekend with my bridesmaids and bridesmen!~
After looking at old homes that’ve been renovated beyond all recognition, I came across this one that was built in 1700 in Womelsdorf, Pennsylvania. It’s a huge home for only $295k, that judging by the front, was apparently a duplex at one time. Look at the house next door- it looks like an old prairie home.
It’s been remodeled and brightened up, but they saved quite a few of the original features. The stairs were redone, but the fabulous shape remains.
The kitchen was completely gutted, but they left exposed brick, added some new ceiling beams that they stained green and put colonial stencils on the walls. The trim was painted traditional colonial blue.
Americana style dining room.
2 sitting rooms. I don’t think that the large fireplace is original.
B/c it was a duplex, the other kitchen is still here. Look at the original lock on the door.
Now, this is a lovely room, on the next level.
The main bdrm. is so colonial looking. Love the fireplace.
Cute bath.
The home is so large, it advertises 5 - 7 bedrooms, depending on how the new owner sets it up.
This is a flexible space that’s been redone.
There’s potential for more rooms up in the attic.
It has some nice land on the other side of the home. This is so nice.
