Most of the merchandise at Blackbird Attic is on consignment. This means that you can bring us your loved but no longer worn clothing and more. We will look through your items and if we accept any into the shop and they sell, you will get 40% of the sale price. It's a great way for you to clean out your closet and make some extra cash.
You can come by any day without an appointment, preferably between 1-4pm (except on Tuesdays and Wednesdays when we're closed). We like to make it easy for you, so we don't have any strict rules about how many items you can bring, but it does make it easier on us if you bring 10 items or less at a time.
Items should be freshly washed, even if they've been sitting untouched in your closet. Pre-treat any stains, wash in cold water, and air dry. If the stains do not come out or if there are holes, we will not accept it. Vintage may be the exception. It always helps if you have the items button/zippered, wrinkle and pet hair less prior to us seeing them, but hangers are not necessary. Shoes, purses, etc, should be cleaned as much as possible.
What We're Specifically Looking For..
Fall & winter clothing, jewelry, accessories, footwear and decorations in trendy styles.Our target market is 18-35 year old men and women who keep up with the latest fashions.

In general.. Women's casual tops seem to sell the best. We LOVE things from Anthropologie and similar type stores. We also love vintage dresses, tops, jewelry, and purses. We take in small decorations and trinkets that have a vintage or trendy style. Also looking for men's shirts in small or medium sizes, recent styles or vintage. Remember, we take in new or old, but "new" items should have been bought within the past 2-3 years and in good condition. We do not take in plain shirts or tank tops, and we're being more selective with brands and conditions of shoes and jeans/pants.
