Good morning fine and lovely people … Open today from 9am, the sun is shining, the coffee machine is purring, there are raspberry bakewell slices, many gorgeous colourful wares to browse and the peonies are happy in a cherry vase … win win win @ricedk @rice_josmith #colourjoy #shopsmall #shoplocal #shopindie #shopindependent #supportyourhighstreet #visitbattle #peonies #springtime #battlehighstreet #dickiebird #dickiebirdhomestore
I know it’s not that early … but it’s quite early for me to be up and sociable, making coffees etc … tomorrow is our first day trialling a 9am start … come and put us to the test (not ALL of you, of course) #earlystart #locallyroasted #locallyroastedcoffee #shopsmall #shoplocal #shopindie #shopindependent #visitbattle #battlehighstreet #supportyourhighstreet #dickiebird #dickiebirdhomestore
Day 8 of #myshoplife24 is highlighting a Shelfie … actually I love every shelf, of course, but some are easier to photograph than others … so I thought I’d also take the opportunity to showcase our amazing candles from @britishcolourstandard, new to our shelves infact … they are the most beautiful dinner candles, eco and fairtrade, vegan and hand-poured … I’m doing the end of this fab campaign slightly topsy turvy as I need some technical assistance with the Day in a Life post which was supposed to be yesterday, so we’re not quite finished yet … nonetheless, thank you so much to @pencilmeinshop for this fab idea, it has helped to push us over the milestone of 2000 followers - I feel a giveaway coming on #vegan #colour #candle #shopsmall #shoplocal #shopindie #shopindependent #visitbattle #battlehighstreet #dickiebird #giveaway #thankyou #dickiebirdhomestore
Day 5 of #myshoplife24 which is all about shop windows … DickieBird has 5 in total wrapping around the corner of our building, but they’re pretty titchy … I’ve always felt quite relieved that they’re small as it takes the pressure off curating fantastic displays and changing them regularly … so instead we keep them simple with bright and colourful decorations … I like them best at night when they’re lit up by fairy lights … we’re lucky enough to have a fab collection of vintage goodies on the pavement outside the shop, as well as rainbow stripes painted on the outside wall, hopefully doing enough to entice people in … @pencilmeinshop #shopwindows #windowshopping #colour #colourjoy #curate #shoplocal #shopindie #shopindependent #shopsmall #visitbattle #battlehighstreet #dickiebird #dickiebirdhomestore
We’ve had lots of gorgeous new stock arriving over the last few weeks…so here is a little selection of what you can find on our shelves (everything also online)…The sun has started to shine and, to celebrate, we are opening again on Sundays with the fabulous DickieBird @jesszssss in charge - open every day from 10am and on Sundays from 11am…whoop whoop, Spring has sprung @ricedk @dandystars @roomytown @pompomgalore @hannahturneruk

My most favourite thing about DickieBird - yes, even better than the buying of gorgeous things and the actual DickieBirds themselves - is when people pop in for a drink and they end up chatting to someone new, perhaps having a meeting of minds, an exchange of differences or just a sharing of opinion, a laugh, sometimes a cry or a rant, perhaps realising they have friends in common - this is my very favourite thing and leaves us all with a smile. Everyone welcome always (except rude, objectionable bastards … but there are very few of those actually). Open today from 10am with our sporadic tote bag giveaway for any spend over £30 and the fabulous @lc.skilbeck in charge #colour #colourjoy #community #meetingofminds #sharingiscaring #difference #celebratedifference #shopsmall #shoplocal #shopindie #shopindependent #shopkeeper #shoplife #joy #battle #battlehighstreet #visitbattle #battletown #dickiebird #dickiebirdhomestore
