When we began The Old House Attic Web site 15 years ago, sources for old house restoration, historic preservation, antiques and Victoriana were few and far between. It was our goal to gather up those resources into a Web site that was evocative of the old world. Since then, the amount of information on the Web has exploded and moved well beyond our means of categorizing it. Although our focus has evolved over the past decade, we will continue to present those old house-related restoration and Victorian resources that you have told us have been invaluable.

Our current vision for The Old House Attic is to be a place where you can stop a while, leaving the hectic nature of modern life behind, to spend some time contemplating things creative and inspiring. Maybe that could be a garden tour to refresh your spirit, a craft project to spark your creativity or perhaps even spending a moment with the ancestors learning how to put up applebutter like your grandmother did, and her grandmother before her.

So journey forth now to behold what your senses can perceive in this place, where the mundane is left behind and the magical flourishes in a flower… in the changing seasons… in the celebration of special times with family and friends.
