Welcome

My name is Samantha and this blog stems from my eternal and lifelong passion for history, antiques, vintage, and collectables! I'd love to expand on what I know and I hope you will like what you see and explore the historic eras together!


Content will range from historical articles, unique finds, historical local places, wedding ideas, antique demonstration videos, holiday/seasonal décor ideas, and of course lots of pictures and some great tried and true recipes!


Look out for weekly "In The Attic" highlights which feature unique finds and either provide information researched or ask questions to the antique community. If you have a unique find and would like to be featured in In The Attic please feel free to contact me. :)


Coming soon: Weekly blog articles featuring refinished, up-cycled or re-purposed antique projects.


Be sure to keep your eyes peeled for discount coupon codes for Samantha's Lake Country Collectables Etsy store items.

Good Friday and Easter Wishes From Samantha's Lake Country Collectables

I spotted this pretty Easter display near Orillia, Ontario and couldn't help but share! I don't know why I didn't make this connection in Tuesday's blog article, but what says spring and Easter like the beautiful cheery colours of depression/uranium/oatmeal/vaseline glass?

The Easter and spring traditions are about a time of gathering and rejoicing, be it for the resurrection or for the time of rebirth. It is a time when colour, light, and life returns from the bleak, cold, heartless darkness of winter. Easter is a time of gathering and rejoicing in the name of Christ, whom died for our sins and was resurrected on this most holy of holiday weekends.

I would like to take this opportunity to wish everyone a very safe and happy Good Friday and Easter weekend. Enjoy time with family, friends, and community- take pictures to tell your unique history- laugh, love; but remain thankful for this gift we call life!
