>>10912268yes, more hot dudes carved into furniture. this is how life ought to be.
>>10912540true, not only leaves, flowers or naked women. Males wanna be furniture too!
It seems that Australia/NZ region has tons of offers foe silverplated sets like picrel. In case anyone wonders - redoing silver electroplating can be done by jewelery workshops.

Another video on "How to NOT restore wooden furniture". It was sanded, but badly, too aggressively due to power tool usage and rough surface was left. No filler was used to fill in scratches/bruises/holes which makes me question rationality of calling it "shabby" BEFORE "restoration" as "restoration" did not change a lot in that regard and potentially introduced a lot more of shabbiness. Heck, even primer would help. Black "stain" is in reality a paint. And it is doing a great job highlighting every uneven surface due to it's shiny aspect. If you can't leave without painting stuff black at least make a basic effort on keeping surface semi smooth and use matte paint, not the glossiest one you can come around as most of these videos is going for. It makes furniture look like it comes from some deep communist era from soviet bloc. They had excuse of materials shortages. You have no excuse, you are just too lazy to sand it PROPERLY and google basic wood restoration tips like using a wood filler. This is atrocity.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z7Zvqa_b4-Y
>>10916265You can find one herehttps://nyfurnitureoutlets.com/products/acme-furniture-20730q-estrella-dark-cherry-panel-queen-bedroom-set-3-pcs-classicOther one I found was listed on site from India."Victorian Style Cherry Finish Bedroom Set" yields many similarly stained sets.
Iteresting Lincusta pattern

Anaglypta was often put on ceiling in Victorian times.
>>10917667But it looks good on walls too and is cheaper than lincrusta

should I paint or wallpaper my room? I have no experience doing either
>>10921498Painting is easier to keep clean. If you want to have decorative walls you can also use stencils on painted walls.
Any recommendations for European brands and stores? Since a lot of lolita-inspired interior is based on European interior anyway, it wouldn't make sense to buy from Japan right? I'm mainly looking for: - jewellery box- curtains- a way to store my bigger accessories - rugs- bedding- art (not digital)And everything else because I recently moved and have nothing. I bought furniture in antique stores but have been unsuccessful finding other stuff with the right look. I got a frilly duvet cover on AliExpress and the quality is abysmal. :(
>>10922749You didn't specify which part of Europe. My experience is mostly with central and eastern parts - meaning mostly Germany, Poland, Czechia. Benelux should be similar more or less.>Curtains You mean like oldschool thick victorian curtains that block all light? These would be possible to order from local seamstress - it's literally some material of your choice plus some decorative trim.For semi old feel of opaque curtains try looking for jacquard curtains.For lace curtains there is for sure a truckload of for example Polish producers (google "firanki") with decent prices for good quality.>jewellery box> a way to store my bigger accessoriesI think almost everything in that resort is reselling stuff from China. Occasionally some stuff made in India could be found in TK Maxx. Maybe there are some local producers like for example this Irish pewter stuff producer https://mullingarpewter.com/collections/jewellery-accessories Maybe some local carpentry related workshops could also be of some help if there are local traditions.> rugs> beddingVisits in shops with home related stuff and in TK Maxx.Also learning to do crochet stuff helps.> art (not digital)Local art galleries? More art oriented cities have plenty of them. Paintings, sculptures. Think for a moment where in your country there is the biggest amount of art schools per citizen - there should be dozens of galleries. It could be pricey option but other than that you are left with obvious places like internet and antique stores plus flea markets.BTW any of your furniture finds been particularly interesting?
>>10911232>victorian >no boom sticks>no rooty tooty point and shooties.women I swear.don't just be Victorians, be the Victorian the Japanese wishes you where.

How about chaise longs?
I want to make my room Alice in Wonderland inspired, because a lot of my wardrobe is too. But obviously a lot of the stuff on the Western market is quite tacky. I got a Victorian-looking closet for my clothing and I'm not sure where to look for decorations. I would really like a rug and bedding that is not made for children.
>>10928108victorian crochet is your friend
Crochet could be made by you, you may find people willing to take your order for patterns you like, maybe you have some stuff in your family storage.
>>10928108you alive, anon?
>>10916450You are my kind of autistic, miss, and I am loving it. Love to get mad about bad DIY on antiques. It is their item and in the end it is their choice, but it will never not make me sad. Keep postin'.
>>10928137Second this. If you learn to crochet (which is less scary than it sounds) you can look at patterns from the time and basically printout perfect replicas of decor from the time which feels amazing. >https://oombawkadesigncrochet.com/crochet-patterns-from-1840-1850/This is just one list of patterns available in the public domain now. They are really easy to find online. If anyone has other good resources I would love suggestions too!
what do you do to display cute art books in your room?
>>10929699If you have the space you can use them as a coffee table book, but on a shelf a cookbook stand could be nice. You could rotate them out as you felt like it.There are endless designs for these things so you can find one to match your stuff.
>>10929802that one is actually pretty cute, i’m going to check out others as well
>>10929166Yes, crochet is very underemployed in modern neovictorian interiors.Which is strange as to me it's a golden standard.Some thrift shops I been to had some crocheted items. But it was not a commonplace in my area to have such stuff for sale.There are probably some FB groups of crochet addicts where you can buy stuff made by members or order specific patterns if you cannot into crochet yourself

And remember! There is never enough of apothecary jars!
I like old tenement housing tiles placed at entrance staircases in central Europe.
