Yep, I adore them. I am constantly torn between wanting to own one or renovate one in the future, and shying away from that dream because I just don't know if I am proper and elegant enough to live up to the beauty in a Victorian, 1800's home.
Anyways, I have discovered an outlet through which I can live out these old house dreams of mine.
It's called www.oldhousedreams.com and it's freaking awesome.
Here's one that I love. Eric and I have recently dreamed of living farther up north. Not sure if we ever will. It will depend on where he takes the bar exam. But northern Missouri is a place with temperate weather and it ALWAYS has a white Christmas. Anyways, this home is located just north of Kansas City, MO. Look how adorable it is... and affordable! I just don't know if I am fancy enough to live in this life-size doll house! A girl can dream....
