A charming country home with style north of Copenhagen

One place we didn't visit on my travels, but is still very much on my travel wish list, is Copenhagen. I'm sure the architecture and shops would be right up my alley. Has anyone been to Copenhagen? What did you think?

The natural light in this home is great - also the architectural details like the radiator cover and top window pane.




I'm a sucker for detail shots :)




The look of all those books in the bedroom is really nice - but I'd be afraid I'd stay up too late each night reading.









This little spot in the yard is wonderfully wabi sabi no?

What do you think of this home? Close to your style?

Gorgeous nature-inspired decor - vases, illuminaries, tealights, etc.

My trip to Boston in February left me with tons of inspiration and business cards from the plethora of adorable shops and boutiques. One of those shops was E.R. Butler & Co.; known for it's fine architectural details, but what made my jaw drop was the beautiful porcelain treasures and jewelry. Here are a few of my favs. -

The Ted Muehling pieces were simply amazing - the candlesticks, and the exceptionally delicate porcelain vases and candle holders. I'm especially drawn to objects with elements taken from nature - so the "coral" luminaries and tulip tea light especially.








They also have a lot of unique, and stunning jewelry like these cuffs by Darcy Miro.




The Boston showroom.

E.R. Butler also has showrooms in NYC and Florence. See the site for details.
I want to thank Nina, at E.R. Butler, who was super helpful and enthusiastic to answer questions during my visit. It's always great to meet someone passionate about what they do!
