Buttoned up Victorians made the most ostentatious lacy frivolous Valentines.

Same at Christmas---I got the most adorable set of 10 Victorian Christmas images at Christmas Shoppe.

I usually put up several trees about the house----these go to accent my Victorian tree.

I love old-timey Christmas, too.

They were big on scrapbooking, as well. You can still go to libraries and find copies of Godey’s Ladies Book, with craft and sewing projects inside - I’ve photocopied some things from them - though they are probably becoming digitized and more available now.
