About me

Introduction	We all have our collections. It usually starts with just one item and then another and another and another and another and another…well you get the picture. Some collections start out with no intention, just one purchase and that's expected to be the end. Other collections begin with a "gotta catch them all" mind. Lastly, some start with a mention to a family or friend that you like an item. I'm Leah, a 22 year old art student, and I have always been a collector. I come from a collecting family. My parents would go to antique shops and just buy piece after piece for whatever collection they had going at the time. So, I’m following in their footsteps. Except, I have more than just one collection. I collect a wide variety of things. I collect anything from antique photographs and cameras, to make up and 90s paraphernalia. They will be separated into two categories, new and old things, antique and modern. This blog will follow me throughout my collections. Follow me as the collections grow or shrink. I will talk about where I got the item and why I chose to add it to one of the collections. Maybe even see how my collections make their way into my art.
