YES Nest is moving!
after over 15 yrs. Marcia is moving her
beloved shop.....
I'm sure she won't miss the leaky roof but
after being in a location
that long it is hard to say goodbye and get used
to a new place.
The good news is that she found a place just down the road.
You can even see it from her shop window,
it's that close.
Makes the hauling not as bad.
Many of her big pieces of display furniture had
already been moved.
The new location will have just as much charm as the old
one that I am sure.
A beachy theme for the locals and the tourists...
remember Nest is in a seaside community of Mystic, Ct.
The natural look of shells goes so well with all her neutral palette.
She pointed out that she's begun to carry more antiques and vintage pieces like she used to years ago.
It blends beautifully with some of her newer pieces.
Vintage scrabble pieces are a fun display to
add some whimsey.
Lovely lady trio
You can't call yourself NEST without a few feathers
flying around!
Always gorgeous soaps and personal care products
to bring to your hostess.
I think the sign on this chair said
"Project Chair"
It looked pretty good to me.
Nigella wouldn't even need to break it in!!!!
Great crystal ball
...now if only they really could predict the future
I'd have one in every room wouldn't you?
I think Marcia is as addicted to ribbon as I am!
and so well organized.
In the front of the shop she has some of the nicest clothing
I've ever seen.
I tried on a couple of things but I think I still need to
shed a few lbs.
Uggh the struggle continues!
You know there had to be jewelry.
The shops prides itself on having a little bit of everything,
new, antique, paper, candles, soaps, cards, clothing, ribbon,
wall art, seasonal and even jewelry.
One stop shopping
Did I mention that she had a whole room of sale items.
Now I maybe a little late in telling you about the sale.
I believe it was the beginning of Sept. that she'd be in her new spot.
Her new digs will be in this plaza
at 80 Stonington rd Mystic, Ct.
If you'd like to call the shop for their hours it's
860-536-5400
I can just imagine how awesome these window will look
during the holidays.
Thanks Marcia for letting me come and take pictures and
letting everyone see how talented you and your
staff are.
I'm have no doubt all your customers will follow you to
your new location.
Can't wait to see it!

Hi Carole ~ I am definately going to have to make that trip now. Thanks for the heads up and the address.
You had me scared for a minute! Moving across the street doesn't sound so bad....the building looks charming and maybe she will even have more room for her wonderful things! Great photos!
Take care, :)
What an amazing store, I saw a million things I'd love to take home! The ribbon is just my kind of thing!
Hope she has a great move.
xo,
Debra

Hey Carole

But meanwhile.. have a great holiday weekend.. and take care with that hurricane!! xxxx Julie

No wonder you love this store. I would find it hard to decide upon which treasures to take home.
It all looks divine and your pictures showcase it beautifully.
have a wonderful weekend. Think I said that earlier today didn't I? Well it bears repeating....

What a beautiful shop-- I have to remember to go there the next time I visit Mystic! ♥
Dear Carole,
I LOVE Nest....I remember loving it when you showed photographs a while ago !!
It would be pointless for me to pick out any single items as I love each and everyone of them. Oh, if only I had a shop like Nest down the road to me. I might get to go to Italy but, I don't have the beautiful shops that you have close by. Just keep these gorgeous places coming, as I could feast my eyes on them day after day.
Wishing you and George a lovely holiday weekend and I hope that nasty hurricane Earl isn't affecting you.
I'm watching the tennis at the US Open and stay up half the night to watch the night session.
Take care Carole. XXXX
What an amazing life style collection! so sad that I'm thousands of miles away across a big ocean!
Fabulous photos. Looks like one of those shops you could get lost in, browsing for hours. Sending good wishes your way for a wonderful weekend. :) Tammy
Hello Carole!
Oh how I wished I lived near this store...I could spend all day there and all my fun money too!!! What a wonderful collection of different things she has...something for everyone. I hope you have a wonderful long weekend...take care and I'll be looking for your next post. Maura :)
Wow! Simply stunning! The photographs are amazing and all those items. I want them all! I wish I lived closer so I could browse too!!
Hugs

Oh lovely, lovely! Wish I were in the area, I know that would be a favorite place to while away the hours.
Uh-oh, Carole.....I MUST MUST MUST have that sweet little white bird on the perch in that one photo! I just purchased a vintage birdcage at the flea market Debbie & I went to last week, and that little treasure would look adorable in it! I'm going to be calling Marcia as soon as I can!! Thanks for sharing her wonderful store with us! Have a blessed weekend, friend!

Hi Carole,
What an amazing shop Nest is ~ saw so much that I just loved.
I would love to be able to go there to shop.
thanks for sharing these gorgeous photos and I wish the shop well in the new location.
Hope that you are having a wonderful long weekend
Hugs
Carolyn
Hey Carole
I'm back!!! I could leave a really long comment.. but all I really need to say is FABULOUS!!!! xxxx Julie
I love this shop! The list of things I like in there is really long. You're a luck duck to live so near by. Your own shop is so fabulous as well! I'm looking forward to seeing your Christmas decorations and everything you had bought at the New York fair. Did I just talk about Christmas and don't even have my fall decoration up, lol? It must be hubby's fault because he just bought the first gingerbread for this year :-).
Have a great Sunday, girl!
Big hugs to you,
Julia
Drag out the fainting couch - I feel myself going... It's all so beautiful!!! LOVE it all, and thankyouthankyou, Carole, for all these gorgeous photographs. When I win the lottery, I know where I'm heading. :)
Hugs & happy weekend to you, dear friend!

I was at "Nests" a few years ago when my cousins visited me from Germany. We all absolutely loved the store, and of course little finds from there now grace our homes. It is a store that you can get lost in, makes your heart beat faster, and even opens your wallet..(not so good- but worth it)....
We will take a trip in the fall to revisit.
Thanks Carol for reminding me of this beautiful place!!!!!!!!!!
Hugs,
Evi
Oh my gosh!!!!!! I would be in there for hours (everyday)so many treasures,love the bottles with the numbers on them and...well all of it! Thanks! x0
I can't believe Nest is moving! Your shop and Next are my absolute favorites. It is such a beautiful and inspiring place, I get overwhelmed whenever I am in. Years ago, they were so nice to let Emily use their bathroom when she was a toddler, let's just say I don't think the staff will miss that part of the space! ;)(no fault of their own I know). I am excited to check out their new location.
xo,
Michelle
Oops I meant Nest, not next! Beautiful pictures, thanks for posting!
Michelle
Carole, I don't know what to say but a huge T H A N K Y O U ! ! Between opening "New" Nest on Sept. 3rd and three days in Brimfield, I have hardly had my computer on. The girls from the store alerted me to your beautiful post about our move! Please come up soon to see the new place, and have lunch before we get too busy with Christmas!
Marcia is my muse for ever and always. Nest is the offspring of one of the most talented and gracious woman I know! Go see it, when you're their enjoy it, and always and forever let it inspire you as it does me!
