Description
I couldn't put up one more house without a garden or Andrea (durleybeachbum) would give up on my postings. LOL. But maybe true?
This beautiful little home is known as the Home Sweet Home Museum. It is in Colonial New York in the town of East Hampton. Only thing missing is a blue sky.
Here's a quote from the website of the museum: "Home Sweet Home and its contents exude a charm that is understood and felt the moment the visitor steps into the house. The fine 18th and 19th Century antiques, china and lustreware appeal to our aesthetic and practical sensibilities. From 1907 to 1927, Mr. and Mrs. Gustav Buek owned and lived in the house and furnished every room with authentic period pieces as a shrine to John Howard Payne. Upon Mr. Buek's death, the village, by referendum, bought the house and the collections and opened Home Sweet Home as a museum on December 15, 1928."
John Howard Payne wrote "Home Sweet Home". Here's the link...but only go here if you don't mind being driven slightly bonkers by the digital music. LOL. Website
I took this photo in September, 2008.
Thanks for stopping by, and do check out the website. Just hit your sound mute button:)
