The Pretty Nostalgic Compendium is more than a magazine it is the voice of a community of British history and vintage lovely souls called The Nostalgianeers. It is passionately written, beautifully illustrated and thoughtfully designed by us - Our hearts are in the past, but our minds are firmly set on the future and we explore history together joyfully and with respect, gathering inspiration and pearls of wisdom to help us live our own lives in a more creative and sustainable way.

If you feel drawn to the past, perhaps you feel you were born at the wrong time? If you naturally rebel against “modern” corporate and mass consumerist ways, like to live in a hands on way and truly believe that vintage living is more than just an aesthetic then Pretty Nostalgic is for you.

Each issue we delve into the past and bring the best bits back to share; fascinating facts, inspiring stories, personal memories, treasured collections, historic landmarks and the best social and domestic history research. We also show how our members embrace the past by peeking inside their homes and picking their brains for practical advise, on crafting, making , mending, foraging, cooking, sewing and all sorts.

This is history of the people for the people and by the people –We humans are magnificent, brave, inventive, resilient, resourceful, creative and kind - Ordinary people make history everyday and we have much to learn from those who have lived before us!

We hope you will share our journey x

The Pretty Nostalgic Compendium is funded solely by sales - There is no advertising and we only ever feature and actively promote British makers, crafters and independent business and shops. We aim to put people before profit and help build communities – just like in the good old days!
