May 10, 2009

This weekend's Get the Look: Decor is inspired by the German chalet of Hannah Kopacz from Made With Love By Hannah (who actually lives in the heart of downtown Los Angeles). Hannah has created an incredible fantasy land filled with gnomes, mushrooms, cuckoo clocks and vintage figurines that are an accumulation of over twenty years of knick knack and tchotchke collecting. She even made her studio (which is a shed in her backyard) look like a huge cuckoo clock!

Visit Etsy's There's No Place Like Here flickr pool to view more photos of Hannah's magical chalet, and check out the Etsy Finds below for some creative decorating ideas on how you can add some lighthearted enchantment to the place you call home. As an added bonus, be sure to check out Hannah's house tour from Etsy's video series, There's No Place Like Here. Click on the image below to watch the movie.
