The magic begins on the front porch with this gorgeous door. Jane had the trees hand-carved on both




Sometimes first impressions are exactly right. The first time I met Jane, she was standing aarp hotel discounts montana under an enchanting canopy of vines and leaves with the trickling of water in the distance. We were in her backyard and I felt as though I had slipped through the rabbit hole into a wooded land of pixies and sprites. I knew nothing of Jane at the time, and yet her surroundings spoke volumes. Encircled by flora and fauna, Jane reminded me of a modern-day Titania, Queen of the Fairies.
Jane is now one of my dear friends and I treasure her organic and magical sensibility. I see it in her clothing, her music, and especially in her home. She was kind enough to let me take pictures for our "Midsummer Night's Dream" aarp hotel discounts montana series so you could delight with me in the wistful wonder of her enchanting house.
The magic begins on the front porch with this gorgeous door. Jane had the trees hand-carved on both the inside aarp hotel discounts montana and the outside of the door. The ivy couldn't be a more perfect accompaniment to the scene.
Jane preserves the romance of childhood in this foyer niche with a christening gown. Her grandfather wore it when he was blessed and all of her children have worn it since on their blessing aarp hotel discounts montana days. The dragonfly hooks couldn't be more perfect for this vintage vignette.
