Victorian Porcelain Dolls
What would a Victorian girl have had in her bedroom?
I love the Victorian era and I want my bedroom to be inspired by that time.
What would a Victorian girl or teen have had in her room?
What about an old fashioned Dolls House? The kind that is more decoration than toy? Or one of those porcelain dolls?
I just want some Victorian ideas!!
A Victorian girl, if she was from a middle class or upper class family, would certainly have had a dolls house, but they were for playing with in those days. And she would have dolls, dolls might be made of china, wood, or wax. She might have a rocking horse. If she was a teenager she would probably have a dressing table with a mirror and brushes, combs etc.
Perhaps you could have a bookshelf with some Victorian era girls' books. Authors like Louisa May Alcott, Susan Coolidge, Mrs Molesworth, Charlotte M. Yonge, Mrs Ewing, George Macdonald, Frances Hodgson Burnett, would be popular with girls. Older girls might enjoy authors like Jane Austen, the Brontes, Charles Dickens, Mrs Gaskell, Alexander Dumas etc.
She might have a writing desk, as girls wrote a lot of letters in those days, they kept up lengthy correspondences wtih friends and relatives (the Victorian equivalent of emails and texts). Girls often kept diaries in those days, so a leather bound diary would be an appropriately Victorian object.
Sketching and painting were popular activites for girls, so she might have some drawing and painting materials in her room. And perhaps some of her paintings or sketches framed on the walls.
Sewing was something all girls were taught to do, and most young girls would make a 'sampler' with a picture and some writing (usually a short poem or Bible verse), using different varieties of stitching. You might have a sample on your wall. And perhaps some other sewing lying about, girls did 'fancy work' embroidering cushion covers, handkerchiefs,tablecloths etc, as well as sometimes doing more practical sewing like mending clothes etc.
