Oh, my! What a treat for a GWTW fan! I loved EVERYTHING you showed. You have WONDERFUL things! I only have the GWTW plates and the F.Mint doll, and the doll I have not looked at in YEARS. I didn't even know there were outfits for it! Thanks for sharing all of your beautiful things. Loved it all!
Best regards,

What a wonderful post! I love everything about the movie and the book was amazing! My favorite of all Scarlett's dresses is the BBQ dress. I have the pattern (got it from the museum gift shop when we visited the Marguaret Mitchell museum a few years ago) but have yet to make it. This was such fun! Thanks for hosting it!

Blessings,

Kim

Nikki, you are the hands down DIVA of all things GWTW and Scarlet! Your wardrobe is amazing and you are so clever with redoing and making each costume just so. Not to mention how perfectly you can wear each of them. The garden dress was always my most favorite Scarlet dress. The Plunket prints look wonderful in your stairway. Perfect!

Nikki, I came over from Rue's blog, and I thoroughly enjoyed seeing your collection. I mentioned to her that my grandmother's cousin (albeit distant) was the book critic who gave the most favorable review of GWTW and ended up being very close to Margaret Mitchell. He lived in Connecticut and worked in NYC, but he was a Deep South southerner by birth. Turns out he was right about the book as millions of copies prove! :-)

Sheila :-)

I must say that I love your blog and read it almost every day. Your life is so exciting. We are building a house copied from a plan from the 1700s. We've been at it for 9 years (while living here. It has been a labor of love with a few dirty words thrown in!

Hi Nikki! Darlin', you are Scarlet! What a beautiful collection of GWTW things you have. Those prints are gorgeous. Look at your pretty dresses! Oh, my goodness. You're just so beautiful!
Thank you so much for sharing in my joyness.
Be a sweetie,

My daughter and I are both GWTW lovers. She has a first edition. I have never seen such an extensive collection as yours. It is absolutely wonderful.
I had never seen a picture of Clark without his mustache and whoa does my heart beat faster.
On a closing note I would SO make a dress from your drapes. :)

2009-09-07T20:12:19.216-05:00

I'm amazed by all of your wonderful GWTW collectibles! Really love the signed Plunket sketches on your wall.

You're right about the novel. So many people have seen the movie and loved it but have never read the book. Maybe they think because it's old and has a lot of pages it might be stuffy or hard to read or something? It's not, though! I can open it to any page and fall right into it again. All these years later, it's still a page-turner.

Thanks for hosting this fabulous ball!!! :-)
