The Modern Edwardian

A Place to Honor the Past (and where I may also question the present!) I Am A Lady Who Loves the Past and Who Was Born in the Wrong Era! (I post when I can! 🥀)

Here's one I don't think I've ever posted. It's just so lovely.

Look at that hat!

Here it is! I got it finished and uploaded this morning. If you wouldn’t mind watching and giving it a like or subscribe that would really mean a lot to me and the success of this channel. I’m really hoping the best for it.

Note: The song might be changed at a future point since unfortunately even though the song owner said it wasn’t copyrighted, YouTube says it is...

I know... I disappeared for awhile again and completely didn't mean to...

But, I WILL be around now!

When COVID-19 happened my town basically shut down and I lost all access to secure public WiFi. And then finding someone who could install at home for me was a process too. But it's done and I'm here now.

I'm working on the last bits of my YouTube channel I posted about last and will have a video done and uploaded by this weekend or earlier. I hope you'll like it! 😊 I've put a lot of thought into it and have done my best to find appropriate soundtracks for the subject.

Anyhow, that's the update. I hope you and your family are staying safe during this scary time 💙💙

Hope I've not posted this already! Even if I have I guess it's sure worth seeing again ☺️

Here's something I have you might like! I got it at a free table at the library and not only is it beautiful to look at but I was surprised to see the inside listing the name of Charles Dana Gibson's wife. That's when I knew I should share it, even if it's not fully Edwardian.

Hi... Anyone remember me? 🥀

I feel so bad about all the time that's gone by since I posted here. 2019 was a difficult year for me and unfortunately I just wasn't able to dedicate time to be here and do the sort of good work I'd want to on the uploads. I've been having a very hard time finding a job and time got away from me way too fast here until I thought about you all today and realized I need to do my best to get back in it again. That and I've got a upcoming plan I'd like to present here!

I've been thinking a lot about starting up a YouTube channel with short videos about multiple subjects. I really love scary real life stories, history, architecture and just interesting people and places and was considering doing short "documentaries" on some Victorian-era homes, people like Evelyn Nesbit, etc. I don't know of any audience to share this with except here though.

It's going to take me a while to gather information and resources to do these videos but I really hope I can be successful. I plan on doing a very good job with accuracy and appealing presentation. Would you be interested in me sharing links here and there on this blog when I get it off the ground?

Hope you all are well; again, I'll try to get back to posting on a hopefully weekly basis! For those of you who stuck with me all this time later, thank you!! 💗💗

(I’m scheduling posts now when I can so you don’t have so long to wait!)

So, this really isn’t Edwardian-era but too beautiful to not share, and I don’t think you’ll mind...
