Our friend Hazel Nicholls continues to serve up ‘simply the breast’ in quirky design!

It was ages ago that we spotted the multitude of fabulous breast designs found on the shelves of cool shops everywhere, and the spark of inspiration was a amazing Simply the Breast milk jug designed by the very talented (and even more lovely) Hazel Nicholls.

Her screen printed messages of positivity and love are Social Nesting favourites, and so when Hazel applied her breasts (artistically) to a scallop-edged plate, the outcome was just delicious. And we had to have one… And we do!!!

Though the temptation is to serve cookies on it, it’s too special not to be permanently on show, like Hazel’s other Social Nesting contribution.

Anyone who has visited Social Nesting HQ is greeted by a doormat of Hazel’s design that really encapsulates the sentiment we try (mostly) to live by.

And it’s a sentiment (and doormat) we adore.

And we adore you Hazel. Thanks for filling our lives with wonderful stuff!

Limited time in this stylish Icelandic capital? Tackle a design journey with our curated list of where to buy or just be inspired…

This year was peppered with a few marvellous adventures, and we realized we really hadn’t shared the love for the design journeys we experienced.

Early this year, Iceland took our breath away. From the intriguing natural landscapes with a desolate lunar-surface appeal, to the most incredible palette of homes in the capital, this place ticks a lot of inspirational design boxes.

We love following a design guide as much as we love making one, but there wasn’t one on Reykjavik that quite met the Social Nesting criteria. On top of the most glorious of bakeries (Braud & Co) and coffee, Reykjavik held a handful of brilliant design shops that are easily doable in a day and all of these are Social Nesting loved and approved.

Scintilla – Laugavegi 40, 101 Reykjavík

Never have we fallen so hard for the unexpected palette of pinks, yellows, mints and blacks. This design studio applies their unique aesthetic to fabulous textiles and art for instant pop-at-home appeal.

Geysir Heima – Skólavörðustígur 12, 101 Reykjavík


Part of the grander family of department stores, the standalone home store from the Geysir chain packs original and quirky design choices with covetable staples. Divine.

Magnolia – Design – Skólavörðustíg 38, 101 Reykjavík


Super-chic and packed with decadent touches in muted tones, it will be hard to leave without buying.

Mun – Barónsstígur 27, 101 Reykjavík

We defy you not to snap a selfie in the oversized teardrop mirrors or be dazzled by the original works of design and inner-child-appealing bedding and textiles.

MYCONCEPTSTORE – 45 Laugavegur, 101 Reykjavík


From the place to pick up your Crosley turntable or bottle of Molecule 1 to some lesser know but covetable brands of homeware and beauty products, enter this cave of cool for a wander that will leave you wanting.

Kaolin Keramik Galleri – Skólavörðustígur 5, 101 Reykjavík


We are super-suckers for ceramics, and Kaolin was a candyland for us. Stocked with the works of a handful of Icelandic ceramicists this place offers every style from cheery to beyond-chic.

So while the giant present door gets a lot of attention here at Social Nesting HQ, there are lashings of holiday decor that also deserve to be sung about.

Christmas lamp revamp | Social Nesting….to a bit of a Christmas lamp revamp, we couldn’t help but make the most of the new space by layering on the fabulous.

Not to mention celebrating the thrill of the new ceiling height that let us go to town on the size of the tree and, for first time in years, not have to clip the tip. Happy holiday decor!
