Father's Day

 

Treat Dad to something different this Father's Day with many of the quirky gift ideas we have to offer in The Attic. From vintage cameras and binoculars, to games that will remind him of his childhood, pop by to find your perfect gift for him this Sunday.

The Simple Things June

It is no secret that we love The Simple Things magazine, and the latest June issue does not disappoint! 

As soon as we saw these Zinc trays featured, we went to take a snap of a fantastic heart-shaped zinc tray we had in the Attic for £10, but it had already been sold by the time we got the camera out! 

Following on from our post about Homes & Antiques magazine, we were inspired to see this feature with a simple glass vase and vintage books creating a dress and simple spring/summer look for the home. We have a plethora of vintage books in all shapes, sizes and colours for you to accessorise your home with (or read)! 

We were also very excited to see this fantastic patterned paint roller. While we don't have a roller in store (yet), we do have some stunning wooden printing blocks which are selling very fast at £10 each. 

Homes & Antiques June

One of the magazines we tend to get inspiration from is Homes & Antiques. Full of interesting articles and beautifully styled interiors, we constantly use this magazine as a point of reference.

In the latest June issue, we were excited to see a feature on vintage vessels. In the Attic we often have all sorts of vintage vessels in a variety of shapes, sizes, colours and styles and we thought how this feature had been styled offered some great ideas as to how to use them. 

We particularly like the idea of using them with very natural hand-picked flowers and foliage - an easy and effective way to add some natural beauty to your home. 

One of the most popular collections china patterns we have in is Blue & White. If you're new to collecting vintage china, Blue & White is a great place to start as it really suits being part of an eclectic mix and can be matched up with other styles very easily - as explained in this huge feature in Homes & Antiques. 

Here is just a tiny selection of some of the Blue & White we have in store at the moment! 

English Country Garden

The weather may have been a tad temperamental of late, but that doesn't mean we haven't felt in the mood for a spot of gardening! Create your vintage garden look with the wonderful variety of outdoor products both old and new we have in store. 

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!

We have a variety of beautiful spring dresses in stock at the moment, including authentic vintage and fab brands such as Whistles!
