 Explore the Collections

Welcome to the collections of Butterfly in the Attic.

There are many rooms in the Attic, and behind every door there is something different waiting to be discovered.

Some rooms are filled with original artwork and photography. Others hold paper treasures, journal creations, vintage-inspired designs, seasonal pieces, characters and stories, or collections inspired by the things I discover along the way.

And, of course, every good attic has its share of drawers, trunks, shelves, cabinets, and tucked-away boxes. You never quite know where the next treasure might be hiding.

A Different Story Behind Every Door

Part of the joy of creating is never quite knowing where an idea will lead.

A collection might begin with an old photograph, a watercolor painting, a handful of vintage ephemera, a favorite season, a character with a story to tell, or simply a beautiful object that sparks an idea.

Some collections grow over time. Others may appear for just a season. And occasionally, an entirely new room opens in the Attic.

That changing mixture is part of what makes Butterfly in the Attic feel like home to me.

Wander Through the Attic

As the collections grow, this page will become a gathering place—a little map to help you find your way through the Attic.

You'll be able to step through different doors to explore original art and creative work, discover journal and paper collections, revisit favorite characters and stories, explore seasonal treasures, and find your way into other special rooms of Butterfly in the Attic.

There is no particular order in which you need to explore.

Choose the door that catches your eye and see where it leads.

More Rooms Are Waiting

Butterfly in the Attic is always evolving, and so are the collections you'll find here.

I'll continue adding new work, filling drawers with new treasures, and opening doors to new rooms as they're ready to share.

I hope you'll return now and then to see what's new.

After all, the best attics are the ones where there's always another door to open and another treasure waiting to be discovered.
