We have a new fireplace in the dining room. It's warm and cozy. Now, what goes above the fireplace? Hmmmm, any ideas?
A journal about life in Wisconsin, decorating, and restoring an 1893 Queen Anne Victorian built by Civil War veteran John Olson Wrolstad and his wife Mathea. Read on to see lots of old photographs, and read stories of the second owners Thomas and Maren Quien, and their children who filled the house with memories for 90 years. Very First Photo I Took of the House Feb 18, 2007 - 30 minutes after we bought the house.
Hi Mrs. D, I am finally getting around to looking at your website about your farmhouse. We met at an auction in New London on Valentines day. I was with my hubby and we bought some odd things, but you bought a few nice pieces for your farmhouse. It is beautiful by the way. Hope you got all your purchases home. It was nice to meet you.
ReplyDeleteHi Mrs D (Sorry short memory, I forgot your name.) We met at an auction in New London on Valentines Day. You bought your husband a blanket and yourself some various other things for your 1893 farmhouse. I finally ran across the papers from the auction and looked up your house and wanted to see what you had done. Wow, you have done a fantastic job of restoration. Each room is truly a work of art. Thanks for sharing. Maybe we will run across each other at an auction again.
ReplyDeleteHello Mrs. D, we have never met, although I think it would be fun to meet you! Your farmhouse is incredible. I especially love the colors you have chosen, this is a dreamhouse for me to enjoy looking at. I live on the Oregon Coast, so there are very few homes that are of this quality and age. Your pictures are an inspiration to me, perhaps I can make my mid century house into a more comfortable abode by adding some victorian accents to the porch and mouldings. Have a pleasant day today! Love from "Mrs. Slug" in Oregon! :)
