bauhausfrau@livejournal.comI'm happily married with two sons ages 5 and 8. We live in a 1750/1990 house in the Shenandoah Valley. I'm native Californian but I've been in Virginia for more than ten years now.
I'm a time traveler, costumer, daydreamer and history buff. I enjoy going to costume events, sewing with friends, watching costume flicks, playing with and costuming my bjds, reading Victorian sensation fiction, games, surfing the web, having tea, playing wii, collecting fabric and reading biographies of 18th or 19th century personalities. I also love yoga, crafting, painting and writing and chasing my boys around the farm.
This journal is about 50% costuming and 50% farm/parenting/personal. All costume-only entries are unlocked. Personal entries are friends-locked or filtered. Feel free to friend me - no need to ask. You may or may not be friended in return, it’s nothing personal, I'm just trying to keep my friends list manageable. If you really want me to friend you tell me who you are! If you've met me in real life let me know your real name and how we met. I don't friend people who have no entries and no user info unless I know them in real life and I don't friend people whose entries are all memes.
If you found me through the ball-jointed doll world or you're interested in dolls and doll costumes you should check out my other LJ: dollhausfrau - http://dollhausfrau.livejournal.com/
