Chelsea & Flannery
Hi! We're
Our paths crossed through the local small business network and we quickly realized we were kindred spirits with big dreams. When the little blue house in the heart of Crozet became available, we knew we had to take a leap of faith, together.
What started as individual side hustles, became Bluebird & Co, a shared retail space to house our two businesses Bluebird Book Stop and Fancy & Nell. The result is a bustling business that cultivates community, builds captivating libraries, and curates beautiful wardrobes.
While delighting our customers with unique finds is a primary goal, our mission remains constant - to create a welcoming, community driven space that empowers individuals in every stage of their journey.
About Flannery
I have always been an avid reader, there’s nothing quite like getting lost in the pages of a book. As a former librarian and mother of four, I’ve spent the past fourteen years raising my children to be readers and independent bookstore lovers. Together, we’ve turned our home into our own little haven - a place to relax and savor a good book. Creating Bluebird Bookstop and Bluebird & Co. has given me the opportunity to bring that same joy into the world. I love nothing more than connecting with our loyal community and putting great books in their hands.
About Chelsea
I grew up in Charleston, SC where my mom was the buyer for a high end retailer. From an early age, I understood the power of clothes and their ability to help women feel beautiful and confident.
I moved to Crozet after falling in love with my husband, a Waynesboro native. Upon relocating, I quickly noticed an opportunity to bring unique, stylish and accessible clothing to the community and thus Fancy & Nell was born (followed by our sweet son). I am passionate about empowering women to feel good in their skin, through every stage of their life. There is nothing better than an outfit that looks and feels great.
