Eating in this decorative corner is an adventure in fantasy. The naturescape on the wall is a lavish blend of lush green vegetation and ornately civilized detail. So, too, is the room, encapsulated in a vibrating green-and-white checkerboard wallpaper that breathes a quiet bustle.

I can practically smell the candy cane on this British dress from 1849! Surprise, though--it isn't a holiday gown... it's a wedding gown!
As many folks know, the concept of the white wedding dress is fairly modern, dating to the middle of the 19th century. And even then, it wasn't ubiquitous. Wedding gowns weren't the "wear it once" they are today, and many women sought to find dresses they could later incorporate into their wardrobes. Even my grandmother, who married in the 1940s, wore a brown dress for her wedding. Part of that was a financial decision, of course, but I love the idea of colorful, practical wedding wear, too.
This dress is silk damask, which is always exciting for me. That means the pattern is reversible! Not something you would notice by just looking at it.
In classic 1840-1850 transitional wear, it's got a lot going for it: the very tailored waist looks very 1880s, while the silhouette is firmly in the 1840s. Those candy cane arms, though!
From the Bowes Museum.

Blue and white is the classic kitchen colour combination; here, old china plates, the window frame, tiling and cupboard curtaining are all variations on the same fresh colour theme.
