Keeping Up with the Vanderbilts at The Breakers (A Virtual Tour)
Image from the website
From last week's posts about The Breakers, the Summer cottage of Cornelius Vanderbilt II, I forgot to include the link so you could take a virtual tour of the mansion.
But it's fun to think we could! Think of how many studios/craft spaces you could have. One for each activity: painting, mixed media, paper storage, art supplies...
I love these photos of the mansion. We are probably getting as much rain I imagine in PA as you are. Pours for a while for days then gets humid again. :-)

OMG. Talk about going down a rabbit hole. This is one incredible time waster.
Isn't this awesome?
I don't think I'll ever be able to keep up with the Vanderbilts. And I am OK with that! :) Stay dry if you get any rain today.

This just makes me feel sorry for all the servants! Can you imagine dusting/cleaning/polishing/cooking/laundering/gardening.....etc???? 😱
Oh yes, I would love to have some studios there, one for each colour!
I think there were some 40 people who take care of the house and grounds. And for 2 weeks out of the year!
That would be so fun!
Ha ha loved what Valerie said ...
Thanks for the link.
All the best Jan
