Roísin (and her new regency outfit!) visiting manor houses


Doesn´t she look like she belongs there?

This (above) is Russborough House in Ireland at autumn 2017. I took photos at this same spot at autumn 2016 also. The Roísin was wearing her pet-en-l'air. And it was windy then. Like, really windy. Roísin could stand on her feets less than 0,7 seconds at a time, so it was a really tricky photoshooting session. (In the mountains it were of course even more windy. And we heard afterwars that actually there had been a warning of a dangerous wind on that day. So, it really was a windy day, I didn´t just imagine it.) Anyway. At autumn 2016 I had a real camera with me, but it was quite impossible to take photos. At autumn 2017 I hadn´t a real camera, but the day was perfectly not-windy. But it was raining...


Luckily there were shelters from the rain. (Russborough House is very beautiful in the inside, too!)



These (under) photos are taken in Castletown House. There weren´t windy at all (but there must be very drafty at winter time), but most of my pictures were bad because there weren´t enough light for my mobile phone's camera... Fortunately some of the pictures were nice:

She looks like she is a bit lost. But I can tell you. She is not. Her character doesn't allow a concept of being lost.

The staircase and the whole entrance area in Castletown is gorgeous.

This is the Long Gallery.


The chandelier - it´s one of three in Long Gallery - is from Venice. The chandeliers are Murano glass and they are a really unique thing. They look so candy-lace-creamcake-like, that you must either admire them or hate them! I love them.

P. S. Here you can find pictures of making this outfit and Roísins undergarments.

1800th century doll's dresses in (mostly) rural sceneries

And just photos again.

I will add blue silkribbons to Evangeline's jacket's front for closing.







I think this is as provincial as it gets. (She is in the walled garden of the Ardgillan Castle.)

Here we have Cinderella and a pumpkin.

Roísin in the front of Castletown House, Celbridge, Ireland.

More pictures of the dresses, Ardgillan Castle and Castletown House you find here and here.
