We Need You

We need you to think of us when you are emptying out your attics... 
We would really like to fill our wonderful Attic Emporium up but we are struggling to get donations of quirky, vintage, retro and antique items.

What you may see as odds and ends another person may see as a treasure. So make someones day by donating your bric a brac, clothes, books, household items, toys and games to us and help raise money for a wonderful charity.  

Bring Me Sunshine!

As this post goes out the beautiful blue skies have been broken with a freak hail storm threatening to ruin all of our plans for an outdoor weekend! However, that hasn't stopped us getting in the mood for Summer with both our windows celebrating the good weather we've been enjoying recently. 

While we'd love to see you this weekend here on Lincoln High Street, don't forget that the new 'Superstore' at Birchwood opens its doors at 10am tomorrow (Saturday 27th). At the grand opening there will be a raffle for two lovely bottles of champagne, with a free ticket given with every transaction!

We hope you all have a fantastic weekend! 

Raise a Teacup!

Here at The Attic we are always getting beautiful vintage tea sets in, each with unique and different patterns and designs on. 

With Christmas fast approaching we thought we would give you a few gift ideas that are so lovely and different and would make the perfect unusual gift!

How about creating your own candle in a lovely vintage teacup? You can buy wax and wicks cheap online and whats great is you can choose whatever colour or scent you want! and once its used can be refilled again!

I found this great step by step guide from HeyGorgeous.com. Just click HERE for the link! 

And if candles aren't really your cup of tea there are many other options. 

Such as using them for little plant pots for your flowers and herbs! how lovely would a row of mismatched vintage teacups look on your kitchen windowsill with your fav herbs in? 

Or a cute little bird feeder?!  Or to serve deserts in?!

Or if your feeling super creative.. Tea lamp?!

The teacup possibilities are endless really, so get creating!

Man up Friday!

With Christmas the New Year approaching, there will be many parties to attend! We know how dapper our Attic costumers are, and with some great smart jackets and fancy vintage bow ties in, you could look brilliant for all events!

We also hope you like our new wallpaper which is in the changing room, it's had a makeover and is looking very stylish now! 

Man Up Friday!

Happy Man up Friday! 

This week we have had some brilliant mens shirts in! Cozy plaid shirts from vintage to Topman, Cotton Trader and a denim Lacoste shirt.

 As the season gets colder, the cosier and warmer the shirt the better!

So an investment in a reliable plaid is never regretful! 

We have also got some great Criminal Damage trousers in, in a brilliant wine colour, originally £32.99!
