Father's Day Shipping Schedule


It's almost Father's Day! Only 12 more days and we want to be sure you have the bestest gifts ever for Dad and Grandpa in time for their special day! Here is the latest on our Father's Day processing and shipping schedule: our U.S. customers can order your Father's Day gifts through Sunday, June 12th with BASIC shipping thereby avoiding additional upgraded shipping costs. Unfortunately, the international shipping deadline for Father's Day has already passed. Starting Monday, June 13th, you will need to select PRIORITY or EXPRESS processing and shipping at checkout to receive your order in time for the Father's Day celebration. Then as of Wednesday, June 15th you must upgrade to EXPRESS shipping for delivery of your gifts before Father's Day. You can still order with Express shipping on Thursday, June 16th, but we are so sorry we cannot at that time guarantee a Father's Day delivery even with this upgraded shipping method. We are processing and shipping all Father's Day gifts and personalized shirts as fast as we possibly can, but the one thing for sure is that we can't control the speed of the U.S. Postal Service. All orders placed with BASIC shipping after Sunday, June 12th will be processed and shipped in the order we receive them and unfortunately with BASIC shipping we are not able to guarantee your order will arrive in time for Father's Day so please consider a shipping upgrade at checkout to ensure arrival of Dad and Grandpa's custom gifts before June 19th. As always, we are so very grateful to you for placing your trust in us to create your personalized shirts and unique gifts for your dads, stepdads, grandpas, papas, and uncles too! Many good wishes for a very happy Father's Day!

Father's Day Fun & Coupon Too!

Father's Day is Sunday, June 19th. What are your Father's Day traditions? Our weekend customarily begins on Saturday with a family luncheon date at Bogarts Smokehouse. This is Dad's favorite barbeque restaurant! If you are ever in the St. Louis area you MUST stop here! Bogart's made YELP's top 100 restaurants in the U.S. in 2015. The ribs and brisket (really everything!) are my family's favorites!


Dad loves all things sports and especially baseball and hockey! Really though who doesn't love the St. Louis Cardinals and the St. Louis Blues? Hopefully the St. Louis Blues will be the 2016 Stanley Cup champions when Father's Day rolls around this year! Now that would be super exciting as we have never won the Stanley Cup in our almost 50 year history! And you would think he would want to spend Father's Day at a Cardinal baseball game. Surprisingly his request each year is to have a family outing at the Missouri Botanical Gardens. It is a place of scenic beauty and enticingly fragrant aromas. The Garden also has a working flower and vegetable garden with educational facilities too. Docents are always available with the answers to your gardening questions.


And when it comes to gift giving for Dad's special day Zoey's Attic Personalized Gifts is always here to help! Here you will surely find a unique and totally special gift for Dad, Step-Dad, Grandpa, and even your favorite Uncle! Best yet, any of our fun designs can be customized with your very own wording.

Father's Day Shipping Schedule

We want to be sure you have your gifts for Dad and Grandpa in time for their special day! We are processing and shipping all Father's Day shirts and gifts as fast as we possibly can, but the one thing we can't control is the speed of the U.S. Postal Service. So to avoid additional upgraded shipping costs, June 13th will be the last day for our U.S. customers to order with BASIC shipping. Unfortunately, the international shipping deadline for Father's Day has already passed. After June 13th, you will need to select PRIORITY or EXPRESS processing and shipping at checkout to receive your order in time for your Father's Day celebration on Sunday, June 21st. For you gamblers out there, we will ship all regular orders with BASIC shipping ASAP, but for orders after June 13th without a shipping upgrade, we will assume you are okay rolling the dice as to whether or not your special gifts will arrive in time for Father's Day, and they will not be guaranteed. As always though, many thanks for shopping with us! We are so grateful you chose to place your trust in Zoey's Attic for your custom shirts and unique gifts for your dads, grandpas, and papas!

First Father's Day

I fondly remember my husband's First Father's Day. We spent the day at one of his favorite places to visit, the Missouri Botanical Garden. It was a delightful June day in St. Louis, not as oppressively warm as it usually is on Father's Day. While touring the flowering gardens, an elderly woman also enjoying the magnificent colors and fragrant scents of Shaw's Garden approached my husband and wished him a happy Father's Day. Then she also told him his daughter was more beautiful than any of the flowers in the garden. My husband, on this his very First Father's Day, beamed with pride! I was so thankful for the encounter with this woman (unknown to us) for adding to the joy of his special day. Her kind words have held a cherished place in our hearts ever since that very 1st Father's Day. So if you ever have an opportunity to make someone feel extra special...just do it! You'll never know the impact your kindness will have on someone, even a total stranger. And if you are still looking for that special gift for Dad or Grandpa, Zoey's Attic can help.

Remembering Your Grandparents

 
My grandmother moved into her house in 1929,  and I have the most amazing memories of family times spent with her in this home. My Grandmother (everyone called her "Goggie") cared for all her grandchildren whenever asked whether it was watching over us when a new sibling arrived or squeezing fresh orange juice for us when we were sick and Mom had to work.  We celebrated birthdays and holidays year after year in her home on Hanley Rd. Now it has sadly been many, many years since Goggie's passing and the house was sold. My siblings and cousins often reminisce of those days so long ago and have always said how much we'd love to once again step into the home that was the site of so many joyous occasions.  Good news...our wish came true! Unbeknownst to any of us until recently, my niece is actually friends with the young man who currently lives in my Grandmother's home!  Although my niece has been in this home many times, she had absolutely no idea this was the house her own Grandmother and Great-Grandmother had lived in many years ago.  Her friend graciously invited us to visit and what an awesome visit it was!  The rooms were every bit as spacious as I had remembered.  It was almost surreal to step into the closet with the window as this was always a favorite spot for the girls to gather.  It contained a shelf full of Barbie dolls and trunks full of dress up clothes.  The light fixtures in the entry and also in the breakfast nook were the original ones that I remember as a child.  I had forgotten about the glass crystal door knobs on all the closet doors.  And here they were, and it made me think about how many of my relatives had actually turned these knobs in the years past. My Grandmother's home was a home filled with love and laughter, and these special memories I have will always be a part of me.  National Grandparents Day began in the United States in 1978, the year my Goggie passed away.  Even though we didn't have an official day to celebrate Grandparents back then, I hope she always felt our love and appreciation. Be sure to let your Grandparents know this year the special place they hold in your heart.  Zoey's Attic can help with a special Grandparent's Day gift designed just for your very own special Grandma and Grandpa.

Thankful For Grandparents!



Did you know that Grandparents Day will be celebrated in the U.S. on Sunday, September 9th?  It was proclaimed a national holiday in 1978 by President Jimmy Carter. The idea was conceived in 1970 by a West Virginia housewife, Marian McQuade. Through her efforts statewide, the United States Congress passed legislation to proclaim the first Sunday after Labor Day as National Grandparents Day. September was chosen as the month to celebrate our beloved Grandparents because it is a month representative of the "autumn years" of life. A special day to recognize Grandparents is also set aside in several other countries throughout the world. For example, it is celebrated each year in Canada on the second Sunday of September. In Australia, Queensland was the first state to officially celebrate Grandparents Day on the first Sunday in November 2010. Several European nations also set aside a special day to honor Grandparents. France celebates the first Sunday of March, Italy on October 2nd, and the U.K. recognizes Grandparents on the first Sunday of October. Why not say "thank you" with a hug and custom gift from Zoey's Attic? Special thanks to my awesome Grandparents. Love you always from here to eternity!

Celebrate Grandpa!

Personalized German Grandpa Tshirt
Personalized Italian Nonno Tshirt














During my travels over the years, I have noticed so much national pride in the citizens of the foreign countries I have visited. I have just returned from a trip to Ireland and once again her citizens were ever so excited to share the history and culture of this beautiful Emerald Isle. It is so refreshing to see the excitement and celebration of a national heritage. As the United States is a melting pot of so many cultures and familial backgrounds, it thrills me so see so many Americans cultivate and preserve their ancestral inheritance. With these thoughts in mind, wouldn't it be grand to recognize your grandfather's lineage with a special gift for Father's Day? All of these shirts can be customized for the country of your choosing as well as for Daddy too! Zoey is here to help so just let us know what you need!

Hooray For Grandparents!


Grandpa Personalized Tshirt
Grandma/Nana Tshirt
Did you know there is a day set aside each year to recognize your Grandparents? National Grandparents Day was signed into law in the United States by President Jimmy Carter in 1978.  This special day to honor all Grandparents is observed on the first Sunday of September following Labor Day.  Many schools host a Grandparents Day for the students and their Grandmas and Grandpas during the week before or after National Grandparents Day.  On the actual day, many families will get together and share stories and a meal with  Grandma and Grandpa . If you need a special gift for your children to give their Grandparents you might want to take a look at these awesome Tshirts.

It's Daddy's Turn!

Well Daddy, it's your turn to relax and celebrate the day that honors you!  Can you believe it's June already and Father's Day will be here before you can blink an eye! Dear Dad, just like I mentioned in my Mother's Day entry, it will truly be a special moment when you hear 'daddy' for the very first time!  It is a magical word that makes everything right with the world!  Now it's mommy's turn to make Father's Day 2010 a day to remember!  How about thanking Dad with a Rockstar Dad Tshirt or a personalized Tshirt with the names of your children on it?  Why, make it an even  more special day by saying thanks to Grandpa with a new Tshirt just for him! I'm sure Daddy and Grandpa will love their special gifts!
