I, too, had to look up some facts on Marie….very interesting lady…if she only knew how famous she was now….

Interesting fact.
In her last days, Marie Antoinette was held prisoner with her two surviving children and Madame Elizabeth, who was her sister-in-law. Her kids were finally taken away from her and she was beheaded…poor girl.

See ya tomorrow..

She was the Queen of France and married the Duke of Berry who later became Louis XVI.
They led quite scandalous lives, and were later beheaded. Quite a sad story for royalty.
But please enter me in your fabulous giveaway! I am a member of Cloth and Clay doll ning site…come have a look!

Here are some interesting facts I found out about Marie Antoinettte:
–One year she ordered about 90 dresses from a dressmaker.
–Her last words: “I’m sorry, I did not mean to do it,” and when she was executed, she was wearing purple shoes.
–She was 15 when she got married.
–Her nickname was “Madame Deficit” because of the riches squandered upon her parties and her opulent rooms at Versailles.
–When the King died (meaning that Marie Antoinette and her husband would be the King and Queen), they said, ‘Protect us, Lord, for we reign too young.’
–Her favorite composers included Gluck, Piccini, Salieri, and Sacchini.
–She put on a play in her own theater–Beaumarchais’s The Marriage of Figaro–even though it was was censored by the King.
–When she was a young girl Mozart asked for her hand in marriage.
–(This one is disturbing.) Marie Antoinette had a sexual relationship with her son that started when he was around 14 years old.
–She was very shy. She rarely ate in public.

I can’t wait to see all the amazing crafts this weekend!

I had to look this up because I don’t know many real facts about her. In doing so I found out many interesting things and will be reading more about this amazing woman!
Anyway I am participating in Glitterfest and hope to come to your mercantile the next day, If I am still standing! Ha!
Please enter me into this really wonderful class. I have never seen anything like this project and would love to make one!
