3 жыл бұрынA short story about a magical, fog-enveloped visit to Swannanoa House in Afton, VA.
Swannanoa was a country estate built in the Italianate Style in 1911. Today it is open for limited tours and special events. See more about it here:

Beautiful! Such a treat to see these clothes worn and moved about it in. Very nearly time travel.

I'm so jealous! I haven't been to Swannanoa in like 7 years, and when I was visiting VA a few weeks ago it was closed :/ Lovely video, perfect location!

Your videos always bring me so much #positivevibes 💖 I am definitely thinking of sewing my own historical costumes - especially Renaissance garments - but when I master the skill itself! 🧵😅

Aw thank you! I'm so glad you enjoy them! You should 100% sew your own costumes - it's such a rewarding hobby! My best advice: just start sewing :)

This era was my first costuming love. I was immediately obsessed with it when I watched Ever After and this clip has proven that I'm still obsessed with it. Amazing work. The gowns. The atmosphere. Incredible.

Ever after is SO GOOD! Even still it's one of my favorite costuming movies!
