Total Eclipse of the Hearts

There are many strong feelings surrounding Valentine's Day. Many call it a Hallmark holiday, and for others it's a time when they pull out all of the stops to show the one they love how special they are. While the Taylor Swift's of the world will be singing about broken hearts and failed relationships, many of us ladies will prepare for a romantical date night with our significant others. AKA a perfect excuse to buy a new outfit!

Accessorize your V-day outfit with a pair of earrings. One pair $6 or three for $15.

Heart on your sleeve, left to right Delia’s s $ 10, Mrena s $12.50, Hurley s $10

F21 lace s $11, Ann Taylor Loft m/8 $14, Necklace $7, Charlotte Russe black pants 6 $8

Forever 21, m-l $13.50

Handmade oversize scarf $14, gloves $5

Trixxi xs-s $13.50

Happy Shopping and Happy Valentine's Day!

Announcing Winter Hours

From now through about March (will announce when hours change again), Blackbird Attic will have new winter hours. They will be 12pm-5pm Thursday through Sunday. I will be staying late some nights, as I always do, possibly till 7-8pm, and may be open by chance on a "day off", so you can always give the shop a call to see.

Also if you cannot make it to the shop during these hours to shop or drop items off, I am available to come in if you contact me ahead of time. Hopefully this is not too much of an inconvenience to all my loyal customers and consignors! 

I will be using the extra day off to work on some shop projects, like the Etsy page.

Thank you and let me know if you have any questions.

Blackbird Attic Again Presents, Love/Hate!


This is our third year putting together Love/Hate, an interactive art show at Blackbird Attic. Think Post Secret, but on a local level. Everyone gets a chance to bare their deepest truest emotions and secrets, whether love or hate, and best of all, it can be completely anonymous.



We have a typewriter available for use at 442 Main Street in Beacon. Letters are also accepted (secretly slid under the door or placed in the box inside) at this location up until Thursday, February 7th.
You can also submit anonymously online here.

Get creative! You can also hand in photos or collages (smaller sizes preferred).

Opening reception will be held at Blackbird Attic 442 Main Street from 5 – 8pm, in which all the letters and art will be unveiled. After the artshow, we will be hosting a dance party at 159 Fishkill Ave, just a few blocks away from Blackbird Attic, to dance the love/hate away. Refreshments will be served at both locations.




Schedule of Events:

5-8pm- View letters at Blackbird Attic, 

442 Main Street

8pm- Walk over to 159 Fishkill Ave

8:30pm- Our version of "The Dating Game"


9pm- Dandy Lions live

9:45pm- Brown Bread & Von Holt live

10:30pm- Moar Dance Music



“There’s nothing in this world so sweet as love. And next to love the sweetest thing is hate.”—H.W. Longfellow

Warm Cozy Knits

This time of year, especially in the Northeast, it's nice to curl up in front of the fire place, sipping on hot cocoa (five marshmallows minimum) in a warm, comfy, cozy sweater. Men and women alike have many styles to choose from slouchy and vintage to fitted and modern. One thing is for sure is that patterns and stripes are a must.
