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.
