It's a lovely new independent magazine, published in the UK, with a love for all things vintage. According to their website....
"Petty Nostalgic is a bi-monthly home and lifestyle magazine that celebrates vintage, traditional and sustainable ways of living. We passionately support independent British producers and love seeking out unique, eclectic homes and meeting people who love life and live by their own rules. The magazine is packed with inspiration to help make your house a home, to fill your kitchen with homegrown and foraged food, to inspire you to reuse and upcycle and to make every day an adventure. It is a handbook for creative, curious and resourceful folk who yearn for a simple, stylish and sustainable lifestyle."
I love the motto on the cover of the first issue: Spend wisely, Waste less, Appreciate more.
I got sent a contributor copy as one of my photos is included in a lovely A-Z of haberdashery:
Those vintage threads belonged to my grandmother :)
It's lovely to see them in such a nice magazine alongside so many pretty photos and illustrations...
Pretty Nostalgic is available to buy online, or from these independent stockists.
How lovely that your photo of your grandmother's cotton reels were featured in the magazine. A blogger I follow had her vintage shop featured in the first issue and has also been involved in the photoshoot for the second issue. Very interesting to see some of the hard work that goes on behind the scenes to put the magazine together.
