Pretty French Settee Sofa at French Nest
I love the charming town of San Anselmo in Marin County California. I love to peruse it's antique and unique boutique stores. Through the years, I have snagged some fantastic home and garden decor items for our home from the quaint shops there.
One of my favorite stores was a darling tiny home and garden store called Grasshopper owned by Holly Hopper. She is a very talented designer/shop owner with a great sense of style and display. She closed Grasshopper and just opened a larger store with Silke Solomon called French Nest. Lucky for us Francophiles, there is now a larger inventory of gorgeous vintage and reproduction French Furniture and Home & Garden decor!
As a designer, I just love this store! Here is a peak inside the store:
Ooh, la, la...Parisian Eiffel Tower Accessories!
Elegant Table Top Items with French Flair!
French Nest has only been open for one month. They are planning a Grand Opening event soon. They also hope to have a web site up and running soon, too. For more information, give Holly a call or better yet...stop in for a visit and some French decorating inspiration!
Update 2015:
Sadly this store moved to Sonoma and is now closed. I loved Holly's style and stores!

Wow! Your site is looking terrific. Very, very professional!! You've been a busy bee, haven't you (but not knitting...?!)
The only suggestion I have is that you create an actual link to your Ebay store to make it super-easy for visiters to get there.
Thanks Jane! You are the one that inspired me to start my own blog! Thanks for the tip for my Ebay store. I will try to figure that out.
Too, hot to knit now! See you at Kntique soon though!
Thanks for your comments about French Nest. You should Have a sit down with Silke just to chat about France and her design work. She used to own the store Tremolat before French Nest.
thanks

Merci for your comment Brock! I have only met Holly of French Nest. I will try to meet Silke next time and have a chat about France.
Best,

How lovely your review is of French Nest! Great photos as well. Thank you and stop by again as the windows were just redone recently by a wonderfully talented local photographer, Damian Miles so they are even more ooh-la-la! than ever! We love the gals that run the store there, they are always such a hoot! It's definitely one of the happiest, mood lifting places to be in Northern California. Endless treasures for all!
oh that settee is scrumptious. Next time I'm in No. CA, I must visit your shop.
