Destined for Success
Warm and Fuzzy
The Cozy Nest in Somersworth, NH, has two rooms; the smaller is the seasonal room. During the spring and summer months it becomes the garden room. Here the store sells stepping stones, bird baths and folk art for indoors and out from companies like Blossom Bucket. Other good sellers are flags and mailbox covers from Magnet Works. In September, the room is transformed into a Christmas shop stocked with a large assortment of ornaments, holiday serving pieces, linens, holiday decor and stocking stuffers. In January, it serves briefly as a clearance room. Ladies accessories generate the most sales in the larger room.
Owner Paula Tsiorbas notes Chamilia beads and jewelry as the store’s best selling line. The Cozy Nest also stocks a number of local New England products and has a New Hampshire book section.
