What A Night!

We had a jam packed house last night! Thanks to everyone who came to our Open House-we appreciate everyone so much. You can see some of our photos taken last night, but honestly..we were so busy that I really didn't get a chance to take many.

Will Goods Leather brought in their entire collection of bags and wallets. If you've never seen these in person, it's hard to appreciate how beautiful they are. We sold so many that I have to reorder on Monday!

We have something for everyone on your gift list so stop on by-we'd love to wrap up your purchases and make your shopping experience a stress-free one!

Our Holiday Window

Our window at the Orange Ave location was dressed last night!  We're getting ready for Small Business Saturday this coming weekend, and our Open House on Friday December 7th. Hope you can make it!

What's Happening...

The year is winding down and our holiday open house will be here before we know it! We have a something special planned for this date (Friday Dec 7) and the official invites are being printed!  Details coming soon.  We have so many new items in the shop, but I thought I'd just share a few today. You can always stay up to date with us on Facebook if you like. It seems much easier for me to post there, but I do want to get back into the swing of blogging again!

We have a new local jewelry artist at the shop and we just LOVE her! Meet Jackie, who has traveled for the past 13 years combing the beaches of New Zealand and Hawaii for seaglass. She wire wraps the seaglass and offers a variety of sizes and colors of chains. We are also carrying her glass bead earrings..all will make great gifts this holiday season.

Also new this week are these wonderful organic cotton tote bags. We have New York, Tokyo and Portland bags in stock ($28 ea) (Red or White Wine totes $16.95 ea)

When it's 80 degrees out...

and you're itching to wear those beautiful fall colors, this will do the trick!

We had an amazing summer here at the shop, so I guess that explains my last post being in June!!! I do try to update more often on Facebook, so be sure to "like" us if you would like to read up on what those Attic Girls are up to these days. :)  Summer is always our favorite time of year, but when those Fall scarves, hats, headbands and candles start arriving, I'd be lying if I said I wasn't just a tad giddy.  It's still a little warm here in San Diego, but cooler days are coming... I can feel it.

We just received these sweet handmade headbands in beautiful shades for fall and winter. An easy way to spring into the new season that's still a bit warm out. :)

Put A Ring On It

Love our new gift cards with a key ring attached! It's an easy way to remember you have it. :) Available in $25, $50, $75 or $100. Perfect for the "hard to buy for" person in your life. :)

Summer Jewels

Our latest summer necklaces have arrived. Shown in ivory, but also available in sea green..gorgeous! My jewelry pricer, hard at work! Necklace $32- matching earrings $12.

Treat Yourself!

New fashion jewelry is coming to the website tomorrow! Here's a peek at just 3 of the 10 new listings at Shabnchic. 

Below wrap bracelet or necklace. now available in white(shown), black and turquoise. $22 ea

(Sorry-this one is sold but we have 1 more that's just a tad different) Just in...another attic exclusive, our very own Coronado Cafe windows! These smaller size old windows are slowing disappearing. It's rare to find one, and even rarer to find one in the "that green" These don't last long so if you have been wanting one for your kitchen or dining room wall, now's the time to pop over to grab this one!

Found Goods Market

We've been super busy here at The Attic..so I have not had much time to photograph anything new or update the blog, but I had a moment yesterday... so here it is! A shot of our newest candles that are probably my favorite thing in the world right now. :)

Your choice of 14 ounce recycled amber glass jars, tucked inside a rustic wooden box, or a 3 wick 8 ounce recycled glass jar. Scents that are unlike no other... Black Pepper: Cracked black pepper combined with vanilla spice and amber. Botanical Garden : Fresh picked herbs, rose petal, lily and green grass. Persimmon & White Tea : Fresh persimmon fused with grapefruit, lime and white jasmine, and my personal favorite: Monticello Pomegranate: pomegranate, lemongrass, rose and tart grapefruit. Not only are these scents heavenly, the packaging is the best I've seen. The box can be reused to store so many things! The packaging is actually inspired by the interesting glass and boxes that would have lined the shelves of a historic apothecary. Pretty cool, eh?

K. Hall ..our latest obsession

We've always wanted to bring in a line of luxurious hand creams, and now we have. K.Hall products are made in the USA, and at least 95% natural. They do not use animal, or petroleum bases, and their products are not test on animals.

If you haven't had the pleasure to try these, you are missing out! Already on our second order tells us that YOU love it too!

Scents that we carry are Peony, Milk, Orange Amber, Pomegranate, Washed Cotton and Lemon Verbena. They all smell great, but I have two favorites! Orange Amber and Milk. If you are familiar with their line, do you have a favorite?

New Hats, Scarves & Totes...

A new season is upon us... Spring*

A Surprise Bloom!

This was waiting for us the day after shop girl Christine worked...she crafted this bloom from packing paper that was in one of our recent shipments. This flower is seriously HUGE..between 3-4 feet wide! It really made me smile. I hung it on our backyard fence for the pic, but it would sure look neat in a display!

We have something else to show you that's popping up at the shop this week! It's something we've been waiting for awhile now, and it's finally happening! Stay tuned..we'll share the pics as soon as it happens!

New Stage Floor!

Replacing the old laminate flooring in our windows has been on our wish list since we opened in 2008. Our wish came true this week, when Jane's husband Jon, removed the old and put in the new planks. Painted and lightly distressed...we love them.

Time For A Fresh New Look

The Attic on Tenth will be getting a makeover this Sunday-Monday, so we'll be closed on Tenth, but open at our Orange Avenue location!

New paint and new wood floors in our display windows! We have been wanting new flooring since 2008! I love new paint and flooring..and this will also mean a floor move too! We have a few surprises we are bringing into both shops over the next month, so visit us soon to see for yourself. :)

Tie One On..

You'll fall in love with these, we promise.


These cotton head wraps are our latest obsession! We can't keep these cuties in stock, so the colors and designs are changing weekly. From toddler to adult...all ages are wearing these!

Tie one on... you won't even know it's there!
