Printable Vintage Fashion Illustration for Altered Art, Graphic Design, Papercrafts or Scrapbooking: A Touch of Melancholy, 1893


I went to bed and woke in the middle of the night thinking I heard someone cry,
thinking I myself was weeping, and I felt my face and it was dry.

Then I looked at the window and thought: Why, yes, it's just the rain,
the rain, always the rain, and turned over, sadder still,
and fumbled about for my dripping sleep and tried to slip it back on.
Ray Bradbury, Green Shadows, White Whale

And I rose
In rainy autumn
And walked abroad in a shower of all my days...
Dylan Thomas, Collected Poems

Vintage Illustrated Template: Victorian Ladies at a Flower Festival 1

Celebrate who you are in your deepest heart.
Love yourself and the world will love you.
Amy Leigh Mercree

The dining room has been transformed into a fairy garden this evening.
Flowers are strewn across the long table ― magnolias, anemones, and roses ―
paired with hydrangea-and-peony centerpieces.
Long taper candles flicker over the display, complemented by the remaining sunlight.
A feast sprawls out from one end of the table to the other,
a medley of some of my favorites ― crab cioppino with bright tomatoes and red wine,
garlic bread flecked with parsley, linguine and clams swimming in broth,
seared abalone presented in its opalescent shell, fresh oysters on a bed of ice.
Kiana Krystle, Dance of the Starlit Sea
