I am just overwhelmed with emotion looking at this picture ❤️

I know I already said this but Amy, Ashley and I pulled off the most amazing tree and collected close to $4000 in items and gift cards❤️ (our sign needs to be updated 😉)

Seeing our tree next to The Waterville Area Soup Kitchens Tree and celebrating last night with Carla…gosh it made our hearts feel so full.

When businesses work together, instead of against each other BIG things happen and I’m proud to be part of a business community that pulls together when there’s something to be done.

Thankful for these women and we can’t wait to work together again soon…yup…we are cooking up some plans already!!!!

What Meg said ❤️

Run a business you can advertise by being YOU.

There are people who won't support it because it's you.

Then there are people who will always support it because it's you, you just need to know who they are.

Theme of the day❤️ Teamwork makes the dream work❤️

Ashley, Amy and I decorated our tree for this year’s Festival of Trees today. We have a couple of tweaks to make but for three girls who have never worked together on a project we worked BEAUTIFULLY together! Together we solicited donations, made our own donations, planned our tree decorations and put it all together today🌻

I am proud of us and what we accomplished in a short amount of time.

The most beautiful casket cover I’ve seen in years designed yesterday by Shyanne for a family honoring the memory of their parents.

Designed with ❤️

Our third and final pop up announcement!

On Saturday November 30th we have The Maine Oil Moms joining us at The Nest in Waterville!

They’ll join and and will be bringing a table full of their amazing products❤️

What better way to kick off the holiday season than by picking up your Nest wreath AND picking up some gifts from three of my personal favorite small businesses ❤️

From NO flowers to FULL of flowers!

We sold out last week! I even had to buy flowers from my friends to get through the weekend! I’m generally pretty on point with ordering but last week was WAY busier than I expected it to be. Thanks for keeping us so busy and thanks for rescuing me Tanya❤️

We are ready for another busy week and if today is any indication of what the rest of the week will be like…you’ll keep us hopping!

Together we are better ❤️

Miss Abby will be back this year! Mark your calendars and plan to come see us for our annual wreath sale.

A huge thanks to Robin at The Robin's Nest for continuing to support another artisan this holiday season and working with us to continue the tradition and make this a celebration of supporting others and small business.

Together we’re better ❤️🌲❄️

Our WINNER has been selected, congrats to Julie❤️ Message sent

I selected a random winner out of the many correct or very close to correct guesses

We go through 1500 pounds of balsam tips during the holidays and it takes me 10-15 minutes to make each wreath. It does take longer to decorate each wreath but we handle that part with an assembly line approach and the bows, pine cones and glass balls are added by my team. Thanks for playing along Nest Fans!

I don’t do many give aways on social anymore, I did in the beginning when I was building a following but now I prefer to save my giveaways for donations to local organizations BUT it’s Monday morning and I’m already up making wreaths sooooooo how about a little giveaway to get this week started!

Guess how many pounds of balsam are used at The Nest during the holiday season for a chance to win a fully decorated Nest wreath🌲

I’ll select a random winner from the correct (or closest to the correct) guess on Wednesday November 20th (wreath will be available for pick up in either Belgrade of Waterville on November 30)

Want an extra entry? Guess how long it takes Robin to make a wreath. Spoiler alert…that answer is in the comments in a prior post😉

P. S. Watch out for ScAM-ERs…they are all over the place…I’ll message the winner on Wednesday and I won’t ask for any info from you!!!!

AND go…

My favorite thing to do at night before bed is to watch first looks on Instagram (don’t judge me😂) and to look at other flower shops (around the world) profiles. (I don’t lead a very exciting life 😉)

I recently saw a post where a shop referred to “low end” and “high end” events.

P. S. No event is “low end” at The Nest, no matter your budget or your vision we can help make it come to life. From simple to extravagant and everything in between❤️
