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.
You don't have to live in a cozy chalet to appreciate the messages spelled out in this series of prints by Melanie Linder. By spreadthelove, $17.
Order Small Scrolls - Handmade Wilderness Project
If you love the rustic look of taxidermy but are a bit of an animal activist, this beautifully papered, resin deer head is 100% animal friendly. By rubyslounge, $345.
Tiny Nightlight Dutch Holland Wooden Shoe Clog Lamp
This wooden clog lamp is the perfect night light to keep you and your gnome friends safe from tripping over a mushroom on a dark, moonless night. From shihtzuwest, $28.
Little Red Agaric Mushroom - Hand Sewn Limited Edition Creation
Every nook and corner of Hannah's home is overflowing with every species of fungi imaginable. This handsewn specimen captures every detail of what makes mushrooms so irresistible. By LittleSparrowNest, $34.50.
Kissing Boy and Girl Salt and Pepper Shakers
I am pretty sure that Hannah's huge collection of ceramic figurines would win any tchotchke challenge. This set of kissing salt and pepper shakers (typically called "kissing cousins") would make any meal taste sweet. From kissavintagedesign, $20.
Large Primitive Keepsake Shelf - Custom Colors Available
If you collect as many trinkets and tchotchkes as Hannah, these handmade keepsake shelves are a great way to display your collections. By Sawdusty, $28.

Dutch Print Wrap Pinafore Apron Maxi Dress with Patch Pockets
I would imagine living in a beautiful chalet would make one want to dress the part. This amazing vintage Dutch print apron dress will turn any homeowner into an instant top chef. From shopgoodgrace, $85.
Wonderful Folksy Seasons Cup with Plate - Spring
Serve your guests tea and tiny sweets on this colorful set of folksy dishware. From shopworthy, $8.
Unique Vintage Lithograph of Dayalets Photo Illustration 1950
I love Hannah's collection of anthropomorphic vegetables displayed throughout her kitchen.
This is one of a set of 12 vintage lithographs of human portraits made with food, known as Dayalets. They were produced to inform people of the importance of a balanced diet. From robynruth, $12.99.
little mutt vintage 60's 70's BIG EYED white puppy dog velvet painting
Hannah has an incredible hall of vintage velvet paintings. This gem is in great condition and is the perfect start to a collection of your own. From RockyMountainRetro, $35.
Cuckoo clocks are everywhere throughout Hannah's home. I would love to hear the sweet little chirp of the bird who lives inside this miniature working version. From johnnyvintage, $38.50.

Hannah's home is adorable! Her special handmade and vintage decor really pairs well with the craftsman detailing of the dark wood trim and her lovely garden. I would love to visit for a cup of tea! Thanks for introducing me to her blog, too. I was already a huge fan of her shop, it was great to take a peek into Hannah's home!

Christine, would you happen to know where I can find a deer bust that I don't have to hunt for myself, that's not a million dollars?
I always look forward to your great finds!
