Dickens Fashions for Christmas Faires
I recently typed in a search engine question "How many A Christmas Carol movies are there?" The earliest surviving screen adaptation, Scrooge, or, Marley's Ghost, was made in 1901. There are 19 big screen adaptions and many more productions have been done for tv and the theater. This leads me to believe that many of us can somewhat relate to the selfish miser who hates Christmas but in the end, is beautifully redeemed. This I believe has led to numerous events being held all over the world ... View the Post

2017 Costume Reveal The 1920’s
Welcome to the Decor To Adore 2017 Costume Reveal The 1920's. 2017 Costume Reveal The 1920's This year I made a total of two 1920's inspired dresses and a duster coat. I was able to make two dresses because I did not have to sew a costume for Mr. Decor. Because men's fashion has not changed too dramatically in the past 90 years I was able to find his tweed pants and argyle vest at Goodwill. The bowtie is Sweet Guy's and the newsboy cap was purchased HERE. For more 1920's men's fashion ... View the Post
