Apparently, we've inherited an entire tourist information centre too!

Welcome to the first episode of The Loft Lady Chronicles, where I'm rummaging through decades of forgotten family treasures, vintage paperwork, peculiar keepsakes and things that really should have been thrown away sometime around 1987.

This time we're diving headfirst into a suitcase of vintage leaflets, old guidebooks, museum maps and assorted paper ephemera.

⛪ Church guidebooks – because apparently we've visited every church in Britain.

🏖️ Holiday resort brochures – a nostalgic trip back to holidays gone by.

🗺️ Museum maps and tourist leaflets – proof that we were going places, even if we can't remember where.

🚋 And the absolute nirvana of nerd finds... a TRAM MUSEUM GUIDEBOOK! Hold onto your anoraks. Things are getting serious.

Plus plenty of other mysterious bits of paper that somebody, somewhere, once decided were far too important to throw away.

The challenge? Decide what we can CRAFT into something wonderful, what belongs in the CRAP pile and what deserves to be KEPT for another generation to wonder why on earth we saved it.

If you love vintage finds, family history, nostalgia, junk journaling, paper crafts, ephemera collecting, decluttering or simply having a nosy through other people's old stuff, you're in the right place.
