unpacking and settling in {welcome to attic17}

I started the journey of blogging nearly six years ago, at No.17 Cherry Tree Lane, which initially began here. Perhaps some of you remember it? I didn't have children and worked full time on a church staff. I loved that blog.  I loved that beginning.

After nearly 4 years, and many exciting adventures, relationships forged and connections made, I took a break from it all. About 6 months later, I came back with a new blog, Crimson to Wool.  It felt good to be back and be writing again.  Sharing.

But, like I mention on my bio page, it never felt right.  

Just as I packed up my suitcase and said goodbye to No.17, I felt the need to pack the bags on Crimson to Wool.  

A great place but not a perfect fit.

One thing that has remained constant and pure throughout the changes of the past six years is my love for the past.

Never waining and always on my mind, vintage has been front and center in my heart.  THAT has never changed, amidst the ebb and flow of blog changes, and social media craziness.

And so, I believe it's time to unpack my bags and settle in here. 

At Attic17.

The place I really feel I have been looking for, all along.

A place dedicated to my passion for the past and how it teaches me daily, to be the best I can....

in the present.

Won't you join along? I'd love if you did.

Welcome.
