Austin shop & studio tour: Paloma’s Nest


I would like to introduce you to one of my favorite studios in Austin. Paloma’s Nest is a creative collaboration between husband and wife team Caroline Colom Vasquez and Jose Vasquez-Corbalan. Founded in 2007, Paloma’s Nest has grown from a small Etsy shop out of Caroline and Jose’s dining room into a thriving business. Caroline & Jose are an inspiration to me as I figure out what I want to be when I grow up - or what I want to be before I turn 40... With a charming flagship boutique here in South Austin, Caroline and Jose launched a satellite shop in Chattanooga, TN last summer. Of course, Paloma’s Nest curates their online storefronts as well, with a lovely store and Etsy shop.
Caroline has an abiding passion for ceramics, Jose for carpentry. Together they are devoted to a precise and consistent vision of their line of goods, their brand and their business.
Paloma’s Nest creates works of art from simple natural materials: clay, wood, paper, and cloth. Each piece is individually hand crafted, each letter of text hand stamped.
