We have a shop!

We are thrilled beyond belief to announce we have been accepted as part of the renew Port Adelaide project and we have one (well 2 actually) of the shops! Here is an image of the beautifully restored building we will be moving into.


We've had a chance to chat with a few of the local galleries and businesses and have received very positive feedback. There seems to be a lovely community spirit at The Port and everyone has been very welcoming and supportive. Now to get cracking getting ready for our opening of My modern nest.

The building also houses a fantastic community project called Ladder, which provides independent living accommodation for kids at risk of homelessness. There are some amazing images of the finished building on the architects website here.

We have a busy and exciting few weeks ahead. Hooray!

Lately on ebay

Ben and I have been selling furniture and collectables on ebay over the last year or so.We have always dreamed of opening a shop and have taken the plunge and applied to be part of the Renew Adelaide program. Renew Adelaide is based on the very successful Renew Newcastle program which aims to revitalise unused retail spaces to create vibrant cities. The program is now moving to Port Adelaide, a fantastic historic port city, fingers crossed we will be a part of it.

Here are some images of recently sold items:
