The NEST

My first impression of The Nest was in driving by on my way to Oxbow Nature Park, and my eye caught the window displays I was mesmerized. The clothing was beautiful; the style was as the sign said, "vintage." My favorite time in our country's fashion history is the 1930's through the 1950's, and the clothes that are featured in the window displays were beautifully curated for those time frames. I made it a point to set up a shopping date with to check out the inside of the store. My second impression came in stepping foot into the store, and it was equally as exciting; in fact, it was awesome. The large room you step into from the street, held vintage furniture, wall art, table cloths, and bric brac. It was so well arranged and displayed, I felt as if I walked into a museum of fine art. The minute you walk in, you are immediately greeted with a warm and friendly hello. As you walk further into the store, there is another room with all of the apparel, and I was immediately "wowed!" The dresses, the skirts, the jackets, the hats, the slacks, the night gowns, all of them were amazing! These clothes are indeed vintage; they were not recently made to look vintage. I even found a newsboy style hat for my son. I was further impressed by their customer service; the hat I purchased somehow did not make it into the bag with my other items. This became apparent after I got home and did not find the hat. After checking email to review the receipt, there was an email from The Nest informing me the hat was waiting for me to pick it up at any time. This was incredible! Not only did they remember exactly who had purchased the hat, but to send it to the correct email was astounding! A little later, I picked up the hat and found a couple more items to purchase. They staff were pleasant, warm, friendly, professional, and I will definitely share my experience with all my friends and family!!

Such a cute vintage store and clothing boutique! I have driven by hundreds of times and am so glad I finally went inside today. I won a gift card in a local online contest so it was the perfect excuse to buy a couple things for myself. I love seeing all the vintage books, games, and decor...plus there is a whole clothing section with hats, shoes and accessories to wedding dresses, and everything in between! I picked up a really cute top and a darling black and white jacket...ended up spending the same amount as my gift card was for so I still feel like I contributed something to this local business. The staff were really friendly too!

I retired recently, and have decided that I am going to pamper myself from time to time.... At The Nest, I had a facial done by Barb, and I cannot begin to express how wonderful my experience was! "Relaxing" really doesn't come close: when you arrive, you are warmly greeted and shown upstairs to a room that has beautiful music playing warm blankets; and a soothing atmosphere that really is hard for me to explain. Though I live in Olympia, it was worth the hour drive to experience this wonderful, calming place. I'll really never forget it.

Love this place! The owner, Tessa, has an eye for unique, special pieces. The space is a well curated gallery showcasing vintage furniture, kitchen items, decor and clothes. I always find something amazing here, from my orange crushed velvet and wood vintage loveseat to my brass-and-wood coffee table and lots of little odds and ends. Whenever I need a pick me up, I browse her space to find something that was waiting just for me!

Betsy did a BEAUTIFUL job on our flowers we ordered but we had a misunderstanding and the incorrect arrangement was designed and delivered. I called the shop and spoke with her and immediately she felt horrible and wanted to do something else to help us. She stepped in and was able to help make this difficult time even better for our dear friend. Thank you for such awesome customer service! The arrangement was truly beautiful.
