I am so so sorry!
We posted the wrong toll free number on all of our pages for the first two weeks of August, so if you called it, you would have been told by a computerized voice that the number is not in service. It was totally our mistake. Actually the correct telephone number is (888) 740-7942.
We have been in the business of selling new and vintage men’s ties for 2 1/2 years (since January 2008), and we are here ready to meet all of your necktie needs.
This includes vintage neckties, designer ties, novelty ties, and last but not least, skinny ties, which are very popular, such as this black and white Skinny 60’s Era Vintage Mad Men Tie. And even if you only want to chat, feel free to call us at 888.740.7942.
We also carry hand made necktie pillows (hence the name Ties2Pillows), hand crafted necktie sachets as well as contemporary and vintage women’s scarfs. Check us out! 1-888-740-7942.
August 17th was National Thrift Shop Day!
What’s the most interesting or expensive or unusual thrift store find? Share your story here!
Mine is a complete service for six of Copeland Spode “Sorrento” dishes! That includes 6 coffee cups, 6 tea cups, a gravy boat ($130 retail value) and a square serving dish, all for just $200! Just one dinner plate sells for $45 at Replacements.com, so I did good!
When it comes to thrift shops, it’s all about value per dollar spent and finding unique neckwear. In honor of the holiday, check out our thrifty deals – cheap ties as low as $5 dollars. We’ve separated neckties by discounted designer ties, discounted novelty ties and discounted pattern ties, but they are anything but cheap. They are modern and vintage neckwear priced just right!
We also separated ties by price. Over 50% of our ties are either $5 dollars, $10 dollars or $15 dollars. We also carry 3 ties for $25, such as this black and blue pattern set. What a great deal!
I’m so excited about today’s holiday!
It’s Bad Poetry Day!
Take your trusty pencil (along with this pencil tie!) or pen or computer keyboard and write something so awful you’ll actually want to share it with someone rather than hide it away!
Remember:
The less time you spend, the worse it’ll be,
And that’s a good thing for both you and me!
If you’re not in the mood to write but willing to wade through some of the worst of the worst, check out Very Bad Poetry. I asked my Facebook friends to post a some bad poems, but they ended up being quite good. It can be hard to produce something bad when we’ve all been conditioned to try our best!
So what interesting holiday is being observed today?
Why it’s Sewing Machine Day!
I’m not exactly sure why, but since it is, it gives me an opportunity to share something nifty I hand made using, you guess it, my sewing machine!
This Oscar de la Renta pillow is hand crafted from a large square silk scarf featuring old fashioned time pieces. The designer name is printed at one of the corners. I fell in love with this vintage accessory and decided to make four pillows from it. What you see is in the photograph is approximately one forth of the original scarf. I used soft-to-the-touch moleskin suede backing in a matching blue.
These totally unique square pillows make perfect accent pieces most anywhere in your home. Check out my other creations under Necktie Pillows.

Today is also
Happiness Happens Day!
And when it comes to Smiley Face, he is happy no matter what, even when he is torn apart by Taz the Tazmanian Devil! If this Taz Tears Through Smiley Face Tie is too subversive or youthful for your taste, why not check out this authentic 1970’s Vintage Smiley Face Tie. This black and white necktie was produced when Smiley first became popular in the 1971.
I’ve seen Smiley Face Christmas ornament ties, flag ties incorporating Smileys wearing patriotic hats and even ties with hidden Smileys printed on the facing of the underside of the tie. You can’t help but smile when you see one!
August 8th is
Assistance Dog Day!
Let’s celebrate service dogs around the world. They love what they do! This Yellow Labrador Dog Novelty Tie is really cute. We also carry other Animal Novelty Ties and have further separated them by air, land and sea.
Speaking of daily holidays, today is also
The Date to Create Day,
Happiness Happens Day,
Eleanor Roosevelt Day (Aug. 8 – 10),
Odie Day (Garfield’s canine pal), and
…drum roll…
Sneak Some Zucchini Onto Your Neighbor’s Porch Day!
Phew! That last holiday is a hoot! Apparently zucchinis are such fast growing and prolific plants which give off so much fruit, that a Pennsylvanian by the name of Tom Roy made up the holiday as a way of getting rid of some!
Well it got too late, and I went beddy bye before I had a chance to post this entry. So……yesterday was
National Lighthouse Day!
According to the American Lighthouse Foundation, on August 7th 1789, Congress approved an Act for the establishment and the support of lighthouses, this including buoys, beacons and public piers. Fast forward 200 years, when on August 7th, 1989, in celebration of the this anniversary of the signing of this act, Congress designated the day as National Lighthouse Day.
There are some mighty cool lighthouses out there. I’ve had the pleasure of walking to the top of the Ponce de Leon Inlet Lighthouse in Florida as well as visiting the Cape Neddick “The Nubble” Lighthouse in Maine and the Hacenta Head & Yaquina Head in Oregon. As you can see, I really really love them! This navy blue lighthouse repeating pattern necktie was produced by Cape Cod Neckwear, and it is a nice understate choice for fellow enthusiasts! If you are looking for something bolder, check out our nautical tie category.
Today is the last day of the week long celebration of
National Clown Week!
I had a lot of fun “clowning around” and being my usual self deprecating self with my friends and family, even on my Facebook page! It brings levity, and everyone can benefit from a good laugh once in a while.
I named this unique tie the Odd Bunch of Stuff Tie because there really is! What else would you call a unique men’s tie featuring oranges, red hot peppers, a stylized sun and moon, people and a clown juggling! The loop label is marked “Corian Design Portfolio”. Corian as in Corian brand countertops and other surfaces made from the material create by DuPont? Well, I really don’t know. Still, it is a cool tie.
