Sister Visit - Rosedown Plantation

Childs' Dress  at Rosedown Plantation. 
Rosedown Plantation is in St. Francisville, Louisiana.

It is my all time favorite Plantation Home to visit!

Click on pictures for Close up.
This dress is fine batiste, embellished with tiny tucks and lace.

This beautiful Cradle is where their babies slept!

Isn't that a pretty chair?
I loved to see the old sewing machine and clothing along with sewing implements.
The baby clothes would have been sewn by hand though!

I want one of these!
The Butlers Pantry.  

This is on my list of Dreams!
I love pretty dishes.  Just think - A Dish Room!!  And this is my ideal.  More cupboards that you can't see in this picture, too!
The outside of Rosedown Plantation is amazing!

And the Gardens are worth the trip all by themselves.

I looked  like Pippy Longstocking with my crooked braids!  Pretty homely!

We are having a great time!   Wish you were here!!

Are you enjoying my vacation with my sister?
Have you been to any of the old plantations?  Which one is your favorite?

All photographs were taken by my sister Kathy.  Except the last one.  Probably taken by  Daddy.
