The Nest Egg

I love this cute shop! I came in today as I was curious to see what types of furnishings and other goods this store offers. There is a plethora of side tables, lamps, candles, textiles, baby items, home décor, and other accessories. This is definitely a comforting home to unique, interesting, and well-​curated items. I saw so many things I wanted to get for my friends! I couldn’t find it in me to purchase something for myself as the prices are rather high — plates and trays were $ 50+, candles were $ 30+, and lamps were $ 150+. Side tables are about $ 250+ and were small. I liked a ton of things, but I’ll make a wish list of what I want for others to gift to me…
There was a holiday items sale going on where ornaments were deeply discounted. Everything else was at regular price, but the modern and fashionable styling was great. The setup of the store made sense too. If you’re looking for a gift for a housewarming, in-​laws, good friend or new parents, this is your store!
I am surprised at the other reviews about the bad customer service — I was quickly and happily greeted today. I was also looking for something in particular, and the woman working here knew exactly where I could find it; she was approachable and could be found easily. Upon making the purchase, she asked if it was a gift, and when I said yes, she asked for what occasion AND wrapped it for free with applicable wrapping paper. What a friendly touch! You just don’t get that anymore these days.
Bottom line: the items here are expensive. However, you are sure to find an amazing gift that anyone would treasure. Or, you can splurge and get something for yourself!

Since I am woman who gives second chances and it helped to see unique holiday décor, I visited the Nest Egg this evening ¹²⁄₇. Still there is no greeting upon entry in the store and it was quite empty. I was addressed after I walked the entire store! Despite the sometimy customer service or lack of bedside manner it didn’t deter me from securing some really unique pieces. The cashier was nice and talkative about my great taste in décor. She took her time in wrapping the delicate pieces for transport to my residence. I look forward to the day that I can write a raving review for this cute boutique! Something keeps drawing me back! I was just there last week ¹²⁄₂ to purchase a side table which is perfect for my sofa. Apparently there was a non private event going on that evening but I did get to enjoy the discount. Check it out and let me know what you all think! Oh and it’s expensive

How sweet!
I personally didn’t visit the store. A friend surprised me with birthday gifts from here. She is so thoughtful and generous. So very grateful. I love everything she chose.
The soy based candle smells amazing and the box itself has sunflower seeds in it. So you can put the box in soil and grow sunflowers: D The bracelets G picked out support various charities, talk about a gift that keeps on giving. 25% of the proceeds of each bracelet goes to charity. Visit
. Very cool. The packaging on everything is gorgeous. I believe most of it is recyclable. It’s got that organic, simple, elegant look to it.
I will definitely have to drop by the store myself. A great place to find unique gifts.

I want to love this store. I really do. But while the merchandise is amazing and really my style, the customer service is lacking.
I’ve been here on several occasions and the person working there did not even so much as say hello. This is a big no-​no with me. You want me to spend my money, but you can’t be bothered with niceties? No. That doesn’t work for me or most people.
It’s my sincere hope that they look at these reviews and realize that you must at least acknowledge the presence of your customers before you can sell them anything.

Love this shop for ideas and unique gifts, and I’ve ended up with several items in my own home as a result. They have a terrific selection of décor and serving pieces, and the kids section has high-​end books, toys and décor items.
They do a great sale once per year, usually in February before the spring furniture shows. Lots of markdowns on floor samples — I’ve gotten framed art, a sofa and lamps at a steep discount. They also do an invitation-​only holiday event where they collect books for donation and give a shopping discount in return.
Some items might be slightly more in price than you could find online, but I like supporting local businesses and the team here has always been helpful. Note: the store is a bit tight, so leave the kiddos and strollers outside.

I found the salespeople knowledgeable and helpful, yet didn’t follow me around the store. but they were there when I needed them. the store is beautiful, upscale, yet something for everyone. Great gifts, both for adults and babies. love it and I try to get in every month to see what’s new!

I was surprised by how much I enjoyed wandering through this store! The decorating there is my taste, so I will be back in a few years to get accessories for my apartment! The lamps are really intricate and the frames/​candles/​pillows are beautiful. Why not 5 stars? It’s a little overpriced. I’m really a Home Goods girl when it comes to decorating, but I might splurge on a few items I really liked here!

The Merchandise in this store is high end so I expect their prices to be a bit steep, but I’ve seen the same products at other boutiques for much less. The staff was stand offish and did not help me at all, instead they stood and stared. Maybe it was because I was in sweatpants and they didn’t want to waste their time and energy on someone who didn’t look like they would spend a lot? This is plain ignorant and rude. The store is cluttered too and hard to shop in without getting lost and confused.

One of those places that I wander through looking for gift ideas for those family and friends who really and truly need nothing. I should caveat that with — those that need nothing and generally like all that hostessing fru-​fru, home deco kitsch, and cutesy but useless baby-​ness.
Most of the items are really not my style, nor that of most of my family and friends. There are some really nice things here (but often a tad over priced it sometimes) and I do find myself dropping in a few times a year to see what’s on the shelves.

I love browsing through this store. This is my go-​to place for gifts. They gift wrap (for free) everything beautifully.

Hidden Secret to a lovely home around here. They not only have nice and unique furniture but have enough brands to cater to different styles. Too bad we discovered this store after we furnished most of the house. So, we ended up buying lot of home décor items from here and they have the best collection. Also, they have huge collection of excellent candles.
Not a store for people who prefer contemporary décor. I wish they were still open in Brambleton. I think they opened that store little too early before the Brambleton center was popular.

Great place to find unique good quality gifts.

Nest Egg is the sort of Williams Sonoma/​West Elm furniture store full of things no one ever needs. And yet, there is something about Nest Egg that is so inviting, so cute and utterly different. It feels more homey than the other places, with a nice array of candles, coffee table books and furniture.
I didn’t intend to buy anything in Nest Egg, but I fell absolutely in love with a book called «Doorbells of Florence». It’s a collection of photographs of various doorbells in Florence Italy and the short fictional stories about the people who may live there.
Like most stores of its kind, you don’t really need anything in Nest Egg, but it’s enjoyable to explore nevertheless.

yummy shop. Super gifts for hostesses & babies. Unique finds & excellent service
