Awesome Vintage: Nerd Nest

Shopping for vintage can be a fun experience.  The thrill of the hunt is half the fun for some people, but for others the idea of sifting through stores full of "other people's stuff" to find that one gem is a daunting task. So what to do?  Leave it to the experts, like the adorable duo Jake and Megan.  With a love for all things vintage, they've got some amazing finds in their Etsy store.  Check out their blog too to find out what's happening in the Nerd Nest.

Their vinyl record bookends were featured on the front page of Etsy.

Instant vintage thermos collection.

All their holiday decor is 15% off.

Totally lusting after this little beauty.  Who wants to buy it for me for Christmas?
