Step back into the Victorian Period at Antoinette's. Humphrey Hughes VII and his wife Eliza Eldredge Hughes were the original owners. The charming interior of this family-oriented guest house will make you feel right at home. Children are always welcome at Antoinette's. There are many treasures to be enjoyed throughout this historic house. 80 percent of the Victorian house's 70 windows are dressed with handmade curtains and drapes. Upholstery and shower curtains are also hand done. See the famous 40,000-stitch hand filet crochet wall hanging of The Lord's Prayer, made by Antoinette herself. She finished this 2-year project at age 94. This masterpiece was awarded a blue ribbon. See over 20 handmade Victorian-style lampshades that were skillfully fashioned from silk, brocade, and evening wedding dresses. These exquisite shades are hand crafted by the proprietor, who is also Antoinette's granddaughter and an acclaimed seminar instructor for this lost art.
