Hi Gloria! Well I enjoyed the tour... So I do have a question... if I were visiting and put my keys down and couldn't find them would you actually say "Look on the Holy Moly." (That thing is awesome!)

Gloria - you have SO many treasures! I would love to be able to put large furniture pieces in my hallway. It's just way too narrow. I used to have a few of those old mechanical banks. They are so fun and whimsical. You have some great collections going there! Lots of history.
xoxo,
Kim

I could live with that hallway, very easily, Gloria. What a beautiful library table and that little fainting couch is just adorable...but my favorite are the little hat boxes, I just love them.
Gloria, I'm so happy to find your blog as I'm a huge antiques fan, too. That bust is a beauty as is the doll, the fainting couch sampler and everything you've show. What a pleasure. Please stop by. -- Jane F.
Wow! That is just your hallway. That is amazing. I love the old oak display case! Such beautiful antiques.
Oh Gloria. sigh.
I could come spend hours in your home just gazing at everything. It is all so PRETTY! You have some fabulous stuff Girl! I would kill to have a library table like that! (If you come home one night and it's gone - don't come looking at my house!) And that photo album is absolutely divine.
Now what you need to learn is how to post a video on your blog, and show us all how that little dog jumps through the hoop! That is so cute!!!
Thanks for sharing all of your wonderful things with us!

Hi Gloria,
I just got done reading your last 3 posts and they were all wonderful my friend! You and Chari in Vegas was the best!!! I just got out of the hospital late today. I went in Thursday morning with a very infected, full of stones gall bladder. They operated yesterday. The surgeon was trying to get it settled down a bit plus my temp had gone up to 102. SOOO, I missed a bit, but I will be catching up soon. Big Hugs my friend, Cindy
You have so many beautiful pieces.
Thanks so much for letting me know about Debbie-Dabble's dollhouse. It is beautiful!
Morning G~
Oh how I've missed you & all your { drool } antiques. :) I could stay here for days.....
Hugs to YOU~ J
Everything is gorgeous my friend!
You have the touch to create such a beautiful and welcoming home. Love it all!

Hi Gloria, what a wealth of goodies....just so delightful. I love the faithing couch....don't you just love the idea of that? :-)
Lovely tour!!

You have some very lovely pieces. I especially love that antique walnut library table. Just beautiful!! Come visit my cottage. I wrote about libraries today, particularly the one at Oxford.
Love,
Susan and Bentley
xxoo
OMGosh, Gloria..you have such amazing things in your lovely home.
To have a hallway wide enuf for furniture just blows me out of the water. WONDERFUL !!
Your home is like a museum, Gloria. I feel like I am getting the real tour every time you show us your beautiful antiques! Everything is stunning and elegant. And this is just one side of your hallway?? It must be the size of a room! I love it!!
Hope all is well on your side of the mountain, sis!
xoxo

Hi Gloria,
Love your home and all the beautiful treasures you have there.
The little hats and boxes and the sweet wicker dolls chair are so lovely.
Also your new header photo is great.
Happy week
Hugs
Carolyn
Your home is amazing Happy! Such treasures, and you seem like the perfect person to care for them and tell of their history. Take care, friend.
Gloria...thanks for stopping by earlier and leaving your sweet comments!
I always love seeing all of your beautiful antiques...you have the most amazing collection of goodies! The table is gorgeous...I love the lines and richness of the wood!
I hope you are having a wonderful week!
Enjoy!
Cathy
Holy Moly! You have some fabulous stuff! I love the antique walnut library table. Your house would be a treat to visit. Do you have to dust everything yourself? I hate dusting. And now that my hutch is black, I'm having to dust more often. Did I tell you I hate dusting? Thanks for sharing. Can't wait till next week to see the other side of your hallway. I have furniture in my hallway too, but it's pretty cramped.
Kim
I could look through your home forever and not feel like I have seen it all! SO interesting, Gloria...I find myself saying.."OH, OH! LOOK AT THAT!"
Love and hugs,
Mona
Gloria -- thanks for your sweet visit! You're always welcome to my table. Now your tour is just amazing! I love all your victorian pretties. And I looked back -- how wonderful that your granddaughter looks so happy and well -- what an amazing miracle she is -- such a blessing. Hope you're having a wonderful week.
Gloria,
Be still my Victorian Heart!! WOWZA!! What a hallway!! I am in love with that tiffany and the baptismal font!!
Everything that you have showed us is as magnificent as always!!
Hugs,
Debbie
You have such great collections, Gloria. I really do love that library table - beautiful! Linda
I love touring your wonderful home Gloia. The stand and album are a match made in heaven! Now if you wanted to make faux kitty really real, you'd put him right in the middle of the hallway floor. That's where our cat lays, or wherever he can find a Spot Most Likely To Trip A Human!
Hope the trip to the dentist went well.
Hugs,
Dawn
I've probably said this before but I want to move in with you! lol Your home is so filled with breathtaking antiques and I'm sure it would take me months to admire each and every piece:-) You also have such a flair of knowing how to group everything and what goes good with what. They had a very similar child's rocking chair at the auction last week and it went for a high price, a couple of people were fighting for it! lol Thank you once again for such a delightful tour in your home:-) xoxo
You always have the most interesting things! Who else would have a baptismal bowl in their hall!! Love the little framed Marie Antoinette.
Manuela
Hi Gloria - I'm stopping by from Melissa's blog. Great blog you have here! I love the little white cat sleeping on the fainting couch. The glass on the baptismal font is a great idea!
Hi Gloria....
I always love touring all of your yummy antiques. Whew...you have some FAB.U.LOUS things. Would you like to ship them to the NW?
Have a wonderful day.
Huggies,
Spencer

Is this your hall in your home? I would love to roam and visit all of your treasures. Your note that God answers all knee mail is very true.
Glad to make your acquaintance.
Hey Dearie,
