Every so often I come across pieces that just seem to belong together. Not because they match in the traditional sense, but because there's something about the colours, textures or the stories behind them that just works. Different pieces, different stories, but somehow right at home together.

Welcome to my world. I thought it might be nice to reintroduce myself. I'm Heidi, the bird behind Nest & Bird.

Nest & Bird is my little shop, but really it's an extension of my life and home on the Mornington Peninsula, where I live with my husband and our two children.

I choose every piece in the store the way I'd choose it for my own home. I look at who made it, what it's made from, and whether it'll still be loved in ten years' time.

The things I look for have a story, a bit of character, and a strong sense of where they came from. Lots of them are from Australian makers and brands, many of them women running their own small businesses, just like me.

If you're new here, hello. What's one thing in your home you'd never part with? I'd love to know.

The homes I love most aren’t the perfect ones. They’re the ones nobody wants to leave. A table with room for one more, something good to graze on, and a host already reaching for the bottle.

I couldn’t have said it better myself, .

Who’s the friend whose place you never want to leave? Tag them below.

Our new Australian-made wrapping paper is printed in Australia using eco-friendly inks, and I think it might be my favourite wrapping yet.

And because Christmas is already busy enough, we offer complimentary gift wrapping with your Nest & Bird orders, so all you need to do is pop it under the tree!

All the tips, tricks and inspiration for a beautiful Australian Christmas table.

So lovely to be part of this year’s Australian Country House Christmas table, alongside some wonderful Australian brands.

A big thank you to _georginamorrison and Australian Country House for bringing us all together and sharing a little inspiration for the festive season.

No snow, no matching Christmas jumpers. Just the people you love, the doors thrown open and probably someone asleep on the sofa by three.

I wrote a little love letter to an Australian Christmas over on the Nest & Bird journal recently. All the familiar, slightly chaotic things that make Christmas here what it is.

I've always had a soft spot for Australian natives, especially flannel flowers, so naturally I fell in love with this print by Smith & Brooks.

It reminds me of driving along the coast as a child, spotting little patches of these beauties popping up. There's something a little bit magical about them. For some reason, I always imagined fairies making their homes amongst them. Maybe it was those soft, velvety petals.

With only 100 limited edition prints being made, this artwork "Flannel Flower Moment" is also something a bit special.

Available now in the Nest. 🤎

For the little helpers, the ones who want to crack the eggs, stir the mixture and lick the spoon (obviously).

Our Little Helper children's apron is made for messy afternoons in the kitchen, flour-covered benches and the occasional biscuit that actually makes it into the oven.

Find it in the Nest now. x

Is it just me, or can you never have enough good tote bags? I keep a few in the car, a few at home, and somehow I'm still always looking for one when I need it.

Featuring gorgeous botanical artwork by Australian artist Meryl Bell, inspired by the Western Australian bush, it's made from organic cotton canvas and is just the right size for market mornings, grocery runs and all those little everyday errands.

And unlike the collection of random shopping bags floating around my car, this one's actually lovely enough to carry everywhere.
