The Pabst Mansion

Though Thursday Doors is on hiatus, I wanted to share the front door of this magnificent home. I also thought I’d share some of my favorite doors from 2023.

Looking at this month’s photo, that Cee shared to challenge bloggers, I decided to post some photos with yellow in them.

Christmas Trees, Indoors

Ehrhart, S. D. , Approx, Artist. Puck’s Christmas tree / Ehrhart, 1902. N.Y.: J. Ottmann Lith. Co., Puck Bldg. Photograph. https://www.loc.gov/item/2010652193/.

December’s theme has been indoors and Christmas is right around the corner so I’m sharing Christmas trees that are indoors.

The one above reminds me of the Colorforms I’d get as a child.

I saw these at the Pabst Mansion in Milwaukee this year. The home was finished in 1901. Each year different designers each take a room to decorate.

Who says you should only have one tree in a room?

Merry Christmas!
