Hi there! Welcome home! I’m so glad you’re here because home is where the heart is.  I’m Mandy, owner and curator of One Cozy Nest.  OCN was established in 2008 after having my first baby.  I needed a creative outlet to share my love for old grungy things, my insatiable appetite for creativity, and my passion for sustainability. Here we are, three kids and almost 2 decades later and still going strong!

Check out the About Us page to learn more about me and my passions!  The One Cozy Nest blog is full of craft and up-cycling projects, tips about flea marketing, thrifting hauls, DIY classes, women’s issues, and creative ways to be kind to the environment. 

This little corner of the internet is my virtual happy place and I hope to make it yours too!
