Thoughtfully chosen and lovingly crafted items for everyday life is what you’ll find in our giftshop. From cozy handmade quilts and knitted socks by local seniors to tiny knitted baby hats and booties, by a local mother, each item tells a story of care, skill, and heart.
Our in-house team creates hand-poured candles, engraved keepsakes, and curated gift baskets, while local makers contribute spa-quality skincare, journal goodies, handmade cards and other thoughtful treasures. We also offer items for pet lovers—including keychains, sweaters, and cups—along with small delights and many finds under $20, so the joy of giving and creativity are accessible to everyone.
Whether you’re treating yourself, celebrating a milestone, or finding the perfect gift for someone special, every piece is chosen to inspire and support local artisans. Some items are truly best experienced in person—exclusive, one-of-a-kind finds that don’t always make it online.
We invite you to visit our space, explore, and discover products that nourish the home, the spirit, and the hands that made them. Stay tuned as we upload more items. ( It’s been quite a journey and labour of love putting this all together)
The Make Nest grew from our beginnings as a wellness-focused cleaning company. From the start, our mission was simple: bring calm, care, and a sense of grounding into the homes we touched. Over the years, that intention naturally expanded beyond cleaning and into creating—making gifts, skincare, and handcrafted pieces that carried the same spirit of wellness and comfort.
What began as small, heartfelt gestures for clients celebrating new homes, new babies, and meaningful milestones has grown into a place where creativity and community live side by side. The Make Nest is our way of offering more of what we believe in: thoughtful goods, tools for slowing down, and spaces where people can gather, make, and feel restored.
For our team, it’s also a creative refuge. When schedules shift or the day allows for a pause, this studio becomes a place to reset, make something beautiful, and reconnect with the joy of creating. It’s here that our values come to life—not just in the products we craft, but in the intention behind every moment.
Our space has been designed to feel warm, creative, and calm—reflecting exactly what The Make Nest is all about. Located in SoHo, London, Ontario, we’re a cozy giftshop and creative studio where craft, gift, and gather come to life.Open Monday to Friday from 12–4, our shop is filled with hand-poured candles, handmade gifts, spa-quality skincare created by a local spa owner, journal goodies, nature-inspired treasures, and thoughtful pieces by local makers. Every item is chosen with care to bring joy into your day.ith We also welcome drop-ins for journaling & creative time. Settle into our colourful studio wall, enjoy our abundance of supplies, and create at your own pace for just $17/hr. (See our Journal With Us page for details.) A full calendar of workshops and events is coming in the new year —stay tuned.
Whether you’re browsing for a gift, making something with your hands, or simply taking a moment for yourself, we want your visit to feel meaningful, personal, and peaceful.
