New stock update!

We’ve got a few new bits and pieces in lately – lots to brighten up your home now the nights are drawing in…

These new letter mugs are very popular. Each letter has its own individual colour.

The Caroline Walker and Cream of Cornwall tableware below is very colourful and adds some colour to your dining area.

These long matches are £8.95 and the boxes are so pretty! Likewise, our old-looking telephones have been very popular lately; they are fully working and simply plug into the wall.

These beautiful miracle bead necklaces are now back in stock (and there’s a stunning new lime-coloured one too!)

Next to this is the A3 Timbergram print – this is the last one we have of these!

Our new balloon print plates come in small and large sizes and in two different designs; they’re a lovely gift for Christenings as they have a hook on the back so can be hung on a wall.

Finally the geometric candle holders come in, again, a small and larger size – very pretty when lit up with a candle.

We hope to see you in Olney soon!

Get Picnic-Ready!

We’re finally into the summer season and we’ve been lucky so far with the weather (fingers crossed!) so it seems like the perfect time to prepare for the perfect picnic! At The Nest At No.9, we have lots of goodies to make your picnic the best yet!

Firstly, we have several different rugs which are perfect for picnicking! The Recycled Wool Rugs (£16.50) are lightweight, colourful and great for rolling up to put in your picnic bag. Alternatively, our Tweedmill Picnic Rugs (£41.00) can be rolled up and even have a handle – what’s more, they’re waterproof and so comfortable! Both the Recycled Rugs and Picnic Rugs come in a range of colours to suit any picnicker’s tastes!

    

Next up are our bottle crates – they are so cute and come in a set of four. They are definitely summery and have screw-on lids to avoid spillages!

Thirdly, our range of napkins are very useful for picnicking. They are lightweight, easy to pop in your picnic bag, and just £2.95 for a pack of 20.

     

Finally, we still have a few packets of Beer Bread left and I think it would be just perfect for partnering with butter or jam! All you need to do is add your favourite brew to the mixture and pop in the oven a few hours before your picnic!

So there you have it – lots of ideas to get you picnic-ready this summer! See you soon.

Item of the Week: The Skeleton Clock

Our very popular skeleton clocks come in two colours and are approximately 4ft diameter. They’re great for jazzing up a wall or for using as a ‘statement piece’ on your wall. They are made of wrought iron and need just one battery for power (which also means no ugly cables!)

I love both of these and can’t quite decide which colour is my favourite! They’re often in the shop, but if you can’t see one, just ask and we can order them for you!

Item of the Week:

Item of the Week: BEER BREAD!

Our item of the week this Sunday is… Beer bread! New to The Nest At No.9, this glorious product is just perfect, not only for Father’s Day, but for any day, in fact!

The ingredients are all stored safely in the lovely hand-sewn packaging, until you decide to make your bread. All you have to do is add a bottle of your favourite beer to the mixture, pop it in the oven, and there you have it… Beer bread!

If you ask me, home made bread is the best kind. It tastes amazing (and makes your house smell delightful too). What’s more, the mixture can also be used to batter fish, bake muffins, or even to make flat breads. Fancy, eh? And if that isn’t enough to tempt you, the charity, hand-sewn Calico bags that the mixture comes in are all reusable!

Now you’re tempted, right? Come and see us in The Nest At No.9 to buy a bag and try it for yourself. It’s only £8.95!

Supplier of the Week: Dear Prudence

As it says on their website, Dear Prudence was created in the summer months of 2010 by Scottish designer Laura Park. The designs are whimsical and naturalistic, appearing on greetings cards, gift wrap and other paper goods. Inspiration for their designs is often taken from observing animals, patterns, textiles and nature surrounding us in England.

We just love stocking their quirky gift wrap and beautiful cards in The Nest At No.9. Come and take a look for yourself!
