A Collage for Lord Seabrook ~ Part 3

Here is the 3rd of my collage's for my next Regency romance 'Lord Seabrook Take a Bride'. This collage is a all about the rooms, namely the sitting room, dining room and ballroom.  There are a couple of other rooms I've added to the collage, but haven't named as these are not well be shared in greater detail with my next collage post.

A Collage for Lord Seabrook ~ Part 2

Today I’m showing you four of Bella’s outfits with samples of the material and lace she has chosen.

The morning dress will be made of light blue swirl muslin and chalk blue muslin three quarter jacket. Her walking dress is made from a slightly heavier material in red with cream lace trim. The evening gown is made from rich embroidered silk and silk lace trim. Bella has chosen deep navy blue for her riding habit with military piping and buttons. Her carriage dress is a small red floral with a patterned hemline  and eggshell muslin over coat.     

Until next time.

A Collage for Lord Seabrook ~ Part 1

Over the next few weeks I’m going to post collages I’ll be using when I start to write ‘Lord Seabrook Takes a Bride’. We are going to be working on collages at our next Hunter Romance Writers meeting as one of our topics of interest.

This collage is all about the house and the setting. As most of the story (as far as I know at this point) will take place at Lord Seabrook’s estate (name to be decided on), I have used only one house. I love Chatsworth House it has so much character, which is why I chose it for this novel. The floor plans are not of Chatsworth; I found them on another site and thought they would suit my needs perfectly. Also the pictures of the rooms are from all over the place, they just represent Regency living and the richness of the materials used to decorate a room.

Next week I’ll look at fashion with fabrics used to make dresses and accessories.
