Local Living: The Nest Egg





Yesterday I headed out to the Fair Oaks area of Fairfax to meet with a new client.  On my way back to the office I made a detour (really it was awfully convenient) to check out a locally owned home furnishings boutique, The Nest Egg.  It has been on my to-do list for several months now but with the move then Christmas and getting settled I had to put it on the back burner.  I wish I hadn't waited so long - it is ah.maz.ing.  I obsess over boutiques filled with furniture and accessories 1) because that's my job and 2) it's my 5 year plan...   10 year plan...   dream to own one myself. While I was there chatting with one of the shopkeepers (probably taking up way too much of her time), I told her that what I love about home décor boutiques is that every shop owner has a different vision for their store.  Although some may carry some of the same vendors, each and every store is different and tells a different story.  I love it!! The Nest Egg carries so many of my favorite vendors but of course they had so many more that were new to me - I can't wait to start visiting more regularly!  They are filling the shop with new pieces each week and bringing in new discoveries from market so be sure to pop by soon!

 I loved the attention to detail on this skirt! Adding fabric, not only as a band on the skirt but the invert of the pleat is beautiful!

 Grab a throw...or two...to take the chill off your bones!

 Loved their pillow display.

 

 Like the look of an upholstered ottoman AND  tray? Voila!

 Remember my tips on adding a bit of pizzaz in the entry of your rented home? They carry Tempaper - a removable wallpaper! See...told you it's a great idea!

 They have the most amazing stock of oversized art.  Have a giant wall that needs to be filled? They are bound to have something that suits your taste.

 

 

Thanks Nest Egg for accommodating my drop by visit! Look forward to shopping again with you soon!
