May’s camera roll ✨

A month of shop life, new products, fresh deliveries, pretty corners, nursery visits, rainbows, flower carts, adventures with friends, and ended with a wonderful Corsica escape.

As I look forward to the month ahead, I know it’s going to be a busy one, but May has taught me that even when there are moments of overwhelm and challenge, there’s always beauty to be found.

What’s your highlights from the month gone by?

There is a little change to this week’s opening hours as I am on holiday this week. I’m flying to Corsica today so looking forward to some sun, Mediterranean vibes and lots of chilled days.

So my Somerset shop won’t be open on Monday, Tuesday or Wednesday this week. Tina is kindly stepping in and looking after the shop at the end of the week, so this weeks shop hours are:

✨ Thursday 28th May: 10am - 3pm
✨ Friday 29th May: 10am - 3pm
✨ Saturday 30th May: 10am - 3pm

I’ll be popping up in the grid with a few posts at the end of the week, but will mostly be taking some time out to rest and soak up some family time. Stories will be very much full of holiday spam, so shop views will be replaced with sun, sea and pretty spots.

The website will remain open but any online orders placed between Sunday 24th and Sunday 31st May won’t be dispatched and processed until Tuesday 2nd June.

Hope you all have a lovely week, speak soon,

I’ve had a flurry of new people find me in the past few weeks so thought I’d reintroduce myself.

I’m Lisa, the owner and curator of nest and nettle. I have a beautiful, character filled shop in Somerset. I’m located , a hospitality centre with a lovely cafe, event spaces and pretty grounds. There are also a few other independent shops here. Monks Yard happens to be my families business too.

I’m passionate about interiors, gardens, intentional gifting, cosy corners and seasonal, pretty spaces. I love to bring all of these passions to the shop, and feel very grateful that this is my job.

Alongside my shop and website, where you can browse curated collections, I also run Artisan and Vintage Markets through the year at Monks Yard. My vision for these markets is to bring exceptionally talented, small, south west based businesses together, to offer an inspiring, chilled and joyful day that goes way beyond just shopping. It’s about building a community 🤍 I love hosting makers, artisan food and drink producers and charming, brocante inspired vintage wares. My next market is on 27th June, so do pop that in your diary.

Thanks so much for being here, and supporting my business. I’m very grateful to have you a part of my journey.
