Reblogged from vintage muse modern views:
Whatever you know of Virginia Woolf’s life and works, you probably don’t associate her with styling. Surprise, surprise: the woman knew the effects on the mind and body of a well-styled room long before Better Homes and Gardens, Martha Stewart, or HGTV filled our lives.
In my third year of college I spent twelve rather grueling weeks studying, obsessing, and making sense out of Virginia Woolf’s writing.
Here is a lovely post from Alexandria at vintage muse that connects Virginia Woolf's thinking about women with the importance of a feminine creation of a creative space of their own -- before the advent of Martha Stewart or HGTV.
