There is such a good vibe within, as owner Mallory is a friendly, kind person who has a lot of unique, hand-made, terrific items. She's a Story City native and a UNI grad, and she fully supports and recommends some nearby shops. I especially loved her greeting cards, candles, charcuterie boards, and cookbooks. The shop is in its fifth year and is thriving. I appreciated the fair pricing and overall quality of the products. We will add Des Moines Mercantile to our stops on future visits to Des Moines.

I didn't make it a priority, but I have recently had the most amazing experience by being in the store. It is affordable unique, and the options to choose from were fantastic. They have some candles and some wax melt options that were amazing and when I got them home, they had some really good room fill of the scent without having to wait for hours. I will definitely be going back because there were at least a dozen other things I wanted to buy, but couldn't afford because of the purchase I had already made I think anyone that walks in there will find something to purchase that they absolutely have to have or is perfect for gifts for others and if you miss this, it's on you because you've missed some thing that is absolutely fantastic. Great job to the owners for making a store be an adventure. Thank you.

I have enjoyed going to The Attic in the past. However, the consignment reimbursement process is…read morequestionable. We dropped off a number of items last year for consignment. I was under the impression that anything sold would be reflected as a store credit to be used at our discretion. I stopped in a couple of weeks ago to buy some dishes and asked to use my credit. I was informed that there was no credit and that a check had been issued, that is now expired. I had a check...when?? That was not at all clear and I was not notified. I sent a message and received a call from the store about the issue, and nothing will be done. Not even a hint at a possible solution besides too bad, but the check is expired, nothing more. I asked if people are notified about consignment checks and they are NOT. The checks are put in a drawer and removed upon expiration if they weren't picked up. Even if I misunderstood, shouldn't customers be notified of money they are owed for personal items sold? I'm surprised that no message is ever sent. So, I gave my items to the store for free. My patronage must be very low priority. Questionable business practice and extremely frustrating.
