    We were in Russian River last weekend for my husband's b-day.
    Bad News: He was sick with a flu.
    Good News: We dropped by the Sonoma Nesting Company
    Even Better News: We got a great deal on fabulous art!
    Best News: We met Dax & Smitty!

    This place is a must-stop for anyone who's looking for that perfect special something to make their house a home!

    Every time I visit my best friends in Forestville and Guernville, we always make time to stop at the Sonoma Nesting Company. I've bought a few decorative vases, and my friends have gotten several mirrors in various sizes for their homes, all of which have worked out perfectly. The staff is helpful and friendly, and their outdoor decor/patio has several great items for the outdoor gardener/decorator.

    This shop is located at the gateway to Guerneville. It was once a gas station but it's been totally transformed into the coolest home furnishing and gifts shop I've seen anywhere. They take quality antiques and transform them into functional, stylish works of art -- the take grandmas old dresser and paint subway tiles on it and paint beautiful pastural vignettes on side tables. There's always something cool and stylish in their eclectic, ever-changing mix. The guys who own it are artists who reinvent an heirlooms. This is what it means to repurpose, to be green. You'll find everything you need for the home and garden at a price you can afford. They even do amazing custom projects.

    It's hard to categorize this curiosity shop but they seem to have something for every style, price and home.

    Check them out for yourself.

    Popped in on Saturday on my way to Sisters Bingo. I fell in love. Pete Doolittle. Nothing like a piece of art that just grabs you and kidnaps your heart. I now have a wonderful octopus with a floating alien baby in ridiculous pop colors hanging on my wall.

    Thank you Sonoma Nesting Co. I would just move in if I could. But, as it stands, I will just have to come and pilfer your wonderful goods one item at a time.

    I love this store and the owners as well.  They have such a great selection of unique and truly useful merchandise.  Always fun to browse and find a great gift or something you just gotta have for your own home.

    Keep up the great work guys!

    I love this store and I love the owners Dax and Smitty. Going to the River is our families' annual vacation. Every time we visit we have to stop by the Sonoma Nesting Company several times during  the week that we are in town. We always find treasures that are truly one of kind to bring home. I love getting home and enjoying our new "finds" and remembering the fun we had on our vacation and with Dax and Smitty.

    5 on 5 stars!
    My partner and I moved from SF to Sebastopol after we had twins (4-bedrooms in SF you know....) and I like Sebastopol alot -- though the fashion/interior/food/art industry is a bit not happenin', and since my move I've not gotten jump outta my skin excited about anything arty-farty in these parts until... until I was driving by the Nesting Co.
    Driving back from having my images framed in Guernville, I saw a sculpture sitting outside thier store and irresponsibly swerved into the parking lot to get a closer look.
    The Nesting Co is an indoor & outdoor parlor/gallery/collection of antiques, up & coming artists, exquisite pieces from Africa, chandeliers, taxidermy bears covered in mirror, old library card catalogs and the lovely ribbon on that package is that many MANY of the pieces are quite affordable.
    Im walking around all gawky, touching this and that and being inspired on my first visit. Most telling, I stay 45 minutes.  
    I usually leave these kind of shoppes in 10 minutes. They are too often smattered with just "stuff", there lingers a forever moth-bally scent, there is often a layer of dust , the "stuff" is all too dark and I feel a heaviness in the atmosphere.  Not here. I left with 2 paintings (I rarely buy art like that). I then brought Pierre (my boyfriend) back and we bought 2 more. A few weeks later we bought that taxidermy bear w mirrors, and finally, during one of their party/fund-raisers for gay pride, we bought a hand-made pillow w/ a gay fireman on it for Pierre's mom's birthday. Cant really explain that one.

    And I guess that brings me to Dax & Smitty the Nesting Co's purveyors who I met while visiting their store. They are characters and I love em. They DO support artists both local and national. They love what they have and it shows. They are bright and funny too. Im not stroking. Its true.
    If you want a comparisson, the only thing that comes to mind is Paxton Gate in SF. Make the trip. Its worth it. Peaz out.

    I am hooked!! This is my favorite store.  I defy anyone not to find a treasure in this eclectic haven of goodies.  Antiques, re-claimed and re-designed furniture, art and much much more.  The owners are not only very knowledgeable, super friendly and fun but are true artisans.  You could spend hours there and then come back in a week and see things you either missed the first time or are new...The merchandise is always changing.  I now know where to send my family and friends when looking to buy me a gift.  I will send them to Sonoma Nesting and tell them I would love anything in there!!!!

    The best store in Guerneville in terms of antiques and home decorating. They tend to have reasonable prices so that items move quickly and they are always getting in new merchandise. For sure make time for a visit to the Nesting Company when you are in Guerneville!

    Love this store!  Absolutely LOVE the Pete Doolittle paintings!  They get new ones often and they go quick!  If you see one you like, you'd better grab it, chances are, it won't be there when you come back!

    Great store full of awesome antiques, treasures and Art.  The owners are super helpful and friendly!  Definitely make a point to stop in if you are in the area!
