Egg's Nest

I do a lot (90%) of my shopping online for the Holidays. I am not a fan of crazy shoppers, long lines, and limited parking.  I try to steer clear of malls and large shopping centers.

However, sometimes you just can't beat the joy of shopping around Christmas. Typically the non-chain/neighborhood stores are nicely decorated and the staff cheerful and helpful.  So when I had to do some baby shopping for a new 9 month old family member, I was excited to get to try out our new local, eco-friendly baby boutique: Eggs Nest (no website, follow them on twitter @eggsnestatlanta). Eggs Nest is located in the up and coming Village Place development off Dresden with the Library Coffee Co, Cocktails and Canvas, Kaleidoscope, and Yoforia to name a few.

Eggs Nest has a fairly large retail space with adorable, eco-friendly gifts for any little one (mainly baby & toddler). I picked out a few small gifts for our cousin's baby and they even wrapped the gift in a cute bag with ribbon and a gift tag (complimentary!). I'll let you know how she enjoys them!

If you go, ask for Katharine Kinney, the store owner. She was very friendly and helpful, especially when shopping for a gift. They had some unique products there that looked pretty cool for any new mom.

We always love to support our local stores, so stop by if you can, Christmas is approaching quickly!
