I spent some time this afternoon looking around for some new site to obtain images. I found a pretty good one. It is copy write free plus free to use. It is stocksnap. I thought I would pick out an image and post it on here as an example. Lately I have been very interested in tussie mussies and the language of flowers. Since tussie mussies were so popular in Victorian Times I though I would choose an image of something from back then, To me this looked like it represented a living room in Victorian times. It seemed to me to be the perfect one to chose. What do you think?

@toniganzon My same feeling, the photos on the walls are weird and creepy. Also those tiles on the walls and the ceiling.

@andriaperry I agree about the picture on the wall. I almost didn't use it because of it.

It's interesting that the room in your photo is filled with very pretty flowers, but then you have that very creepy photo hanging on the wall. It gave me the chills.

@HazySue That would be a good setting for a spooky movie!

@jstory07 This is my feeling looking at this photo. Look at those sinister paintings on the walls.

Believe it or not it is listed under Victorian. I don't like the painting of the witchy looking woman.

I had to look up tussie mussie. What a lovely room. I think I could write a great novel in a room like this.

@HazySue I was really only looking at the decorations. I'd have to change the walls and ceiling too.

@JudyEv There are too many things I would have to change. I love the flowers though.

That room reminds me of tussie mussies. I like the room but would definitely have to change the walls and ceiling and that picture would have to go.

I love the Victorian look myself. It must be why I am so drawn to the tussie mussies.

That is the same reaction I had when I first looked at this image. Actually the first thing I noticed about this image is the photo.

I love it! It looks so cozy and inviting, but not truly Victorian. Some of those photos should be replaced as should that large painting. Not my style, but I'd enjoy sitting there with the fireplace on.

I kept going back to this image even though there were things in it that bothered me. Mostly the art work and the walls and ceiling.
