About the site and shop:

The Shop:
Call Me Cordelia is a vintage boutique. We specialize in cottage ambiance. Even if you live in today’s modern homes, it is still possible to savor the nostalgia of the Victorian days. We provide ladies with vintage handmade linens, gifts, antiques, elegant china, and florals, which can be customized. We don’t offer everyday items which can be found at Wal-Mart. Instead we offer nostalgic items you might remember from childhood visits to Grandma’s.
The Site:
Call Me Cordelia takes us back to a time before the cold modern age of cell phones, when handwritten letters and pressed flowers were treasured. In our blog, you’ll find old fashioned recipes, craft ideas, and gardening tips. Our online shop features vintage finds. We also have a section devoted to L. M. Montgomery’s beloved Anne of Green Gables. Call Me Cordelia offers a large selection of free goodies for our visitors. This includes: desktop wallpaper, icons, and games. Call Me Cordelia also offers historical information on the Victorian era.
Site History
In 2004, we were hosted at Geocites under the name Cordelia's Anne of Green Gables Site. Then we expanded to cover other pages, still staying with our Victorian roots. When Yahoo did away with Geocites, we became part of Pink Simplicity (a friend's site). In 2009, we bought our own domain and Call Me Cordelia was created.
Our Name:
Everyone always wants to know who Cordelia is and why this name? The credit goes to my mom, for choosing our domain name. Call Me Cordelia. The name Call Me Cordelia is from the following quote in Anne of Green Gables by L. M. Montgomery:
"...What's your name?"
The child hesitated a moment.
"Will you please call me Cordelia?" she asked eagerly.
"Call you Cordelia? Is that your name?"
"No-o-o, it's not exactly my name, but I would love to be called Cordelia. It's such a perfectly elegant name."
"I don't know what on earth you mean. If Cordelia isn't your name, what is?"
"Anne Shirley."
