In the shop we’ve always carried a lot of vintage & handmade items we don’t typically sell online because it’s all one of a kind and too much work to keep up with on the site. I’ve decided to add some of the things to Etsy so our online customers can purchase them too.

We are now restocking the online store with our best sellers.  First thing back online is the striped & polka dot pottery.   If you don’t see your favorite piece, please check back.  We’ll be getting more in soon + a few new colors!

First I just want to thank everyone again for their kind words, thoughts, prayers, e-mails, cards, links from your blogs……each one meant so much.

A little update on what’s going on here.   The store is now open, Saturdays only, 10am-5pm, beginning this Saturday the 6th.   If you’re in the area but unable to come on Saturdays, please e-mail us and someone would be glad to meet you at the store at a time convenient for you.   Store wide, everything is 25% off unless otherwise marked.  Some things are already on clearance & all display fixtures & furniture are for sale as well.

I have made the decision to keep the online store open.   We are currently restocking all of your favorites, but we still have our closeout page & we will continue to add items there as well.    I will be offering the online business for sale though, so if you have any interest in a great opportunity to buy an established & popular online store, stay tuned.  More information is coming soon.

I am overwhelmed.

I guess I should start with the news to those that may not know. On January 7th, my dear husband passed away at the age or 39. Heart attack. He was young, healthy, perfect and shockingly he is gone. I could write pages on the amazing person he was…..my knight in shining armor. He worked hard so I could live the dream of owning my own store. He was so proud of my many accomplishments and I know I couldn’t have done any of it without him behind me.

The reality of it all has yet to set in. I’m sure it will take some time. But I know the first big dose of reality is that I need a “real” job with a real salary that I can rely on no matter what, to support my boys. So the store has to close.

Yesterday an angel notified some wonderful bloggers who have posted the news on their blogs, sending many of you here for the first time. When the orders started pouring in, I was absolutely overwhelmed. Not with the fact that we have to *pack* that many orders, but the sheer love you’ve all shown for a complete stranger. What started as a day doing inventory, became a day of packing, packing, packing. I sent out an APB on boxes and packing peanuts via text message & help arrived.

Again, to those who have not come here via these blogs. The entire store is on sale, 25% off. Prices are not shown, the discount will be deducted from your cart.

There is so much more I want to say, but right now I will just say THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart for the love, support, and prayers. They are felt & appreciated.

Yep! 

Kimba at A Soft Place to Land is having a giveaway for our Rubber Gloves & matching apron set!  

Another great gift you’ll be tempted to keep for yourself!   I know they look like a fun, frivolous gift, but honestly I LOVE these gloves for practical reasons!  The cuffs keep you from getting water down in them when you’re pulling the plug on the drain or trying to fish a lego out of the toilet!  Trust me, I know from experience. The apron is oilcloth and just wipes clean with a sponge!

Please stop by The Inspired Room today to enter to win a pair of our bunny slippers.   They make a great gift, but if I were you, I’d keep them for yourself! ;-)   (I”m wearing mine as I type)

I’m not a big fan of smelly fragrances.    If you follow me on Twitter, you’ve probably heard me complain when someone comes in and sprays every single room spray, or went a overboard on their perfume application &  it lingers in the store longer than they do.      Some of the candle lines we’ve carried in the past have been too strong for my taste.   We just closed out a line that I couldn’t stand to burn many of the scents for more than 10-15 minutes.  

Recently I received a package with a lovely full-sized candle sample.

 As soon as I opened it, I knew we had to have these.  It smelled like a pile of clean laundry–”Clothesline”.  Seriously, if it weren’t full of chemcials I would not only douse all my clothes with Downy but probably bathe in it!   I love that smell!     And with other smells like “Green Green Grass”, “Rain Drops”, & “Fresh Air” these are perfect for anyone who loves clean scents.     I know it’s holiday time, so there’s also a nice clean “Winter Wind” scent that makes you think of fresh winter air & snow.

I started the following post about our Christmas products well over a week ago.  The photo below is as far as I got!   I guess being so busy is a good thing, right?

I intended to write how they’re not for sale online–there are too many different ones in very small quantities. If you see any you like though, please e-mail us, we can let you know what we currently have in stock & get one shipped out to you. You can see better photos on our Facebook or Flickr pages. 

On this Thanksgiving eve, we’re thankful for you, our customers, making this another great year at Feather Your Nest.    Please stop by the 3/50 Project blog to read the latest post on Black Friday & shopping at your local stores like us!   You won’t have to worry about getting trampled.  We don’t open until 10am so you can sleep in, have a lovely brunch at one of our great restaurants, and then come by & see us!
