“You Don’t Know Anyone At The Party, So You Don’t Want To Go. You Don’t Like Cottage Cheese,

concept: we wake up one day and nature has grown decades overnight. we can’t remember where the roads used to be. in some places the trees are so tall and thick we can barely see sky. the grass hasn’t been mowed in years. how quiet everything is now

Go ahead and decorate! 1951 by Hazel Dell Brown, Armstrong Cork Company

“Does anything in nature despair except man? An animal with a foot caught in a trap does not seem to despair. It is too busy trying to survive. It is all closed in, to a kind of still, intense waiting. Is this a key? Keep busy with survival. Imitate the trees. Learn to lose in order to recover, and remember that nothing stays the same for long, not even pain, psychic pain. Sit it out. Let it all pass. Let it go.”

— May Sarton. “Journal of a Solitude: The Journals of Mary Sarton”. 

This home in Woodstock, New York, is like an enchanted witch’s house.

The entrance alone, is amazing.

In the large main room, there’s a huge stone fireplace, a table, and a swing.

There’s also a work area in the corner.

A family room with a children’s play area.

I’m guessing this is either a bedroom or a sitting room.

Hallway leading to the various levels.

Look at the kitchen.

Master bedroom with some fashionable wigs and beautiful vintage dressing table.

Cool bath- look at all the vintage fixtures.

Here’s a man cave workshop. 

And, there’s a vintage car in the garage.

What a dreamy house.
