Really loving the slate blue (Down Pipe by Farrow & Ball) wall colour in the living room of Kate Watson-Smyth, a journalist who also runs the interiors blog Mad About the House. See the rest of her beautiful London home here.

Love this idea for low key holiday decorating—mini trees in a row. These ones are from House Doctor, but it's definitely a craft project you could do yourself.

Modern pastoral. Love the warm tones and rich patterns of this spread in Elle Czech, November 2017 issue. Model Ester Berdych was photographed in the new Erdem x H&M collection by Andreas Ortner, with styling by Jan Králíček.

I've featured the home of Danish fashion and interiors designer Malene Birger before, but seeing more of her beautiful space is always a pleasure. See more photos in my post here, too.

Handmade Holidays
Pretty and easy to make, this handmade gelt is decorated with cacao nibs, orange zest, and candied ginger before being wrapped up in silver or gold candy papers. Find 24 more Hanukkah dessert recipes over at Martha Stewart here.

Buffet
This week's links. Enjoy.
A Stylish Attic Apartment
Take a tour of a modern attic in Copenhagen—one that harmoniously blends the very different tastes of the couple living there. That's the dining room above.
The New York Times 100 Notable Books of 2017
The annual list of the year's great reads in fiction, poetry and nonfiction. Something for everyone on your gift list (or you).
The Nineteenth-Century Hipster Beard
From the BBC: "Do you know someone with a beard you would categorise as "impressive"? Get them to take a look at the facial hair of 19th-century 'Whiskerandos'..."
At the Museum
Love this. Open Culture has the entire 8 episodes of At the Museum, the Museum of Modern Art's (MoMA) behind the scenes documentary of running a museum.
Mary Cassatt Painted Domestic Life in a Way Male Impressionists Couldn't
Thoughtful essay on Artsy on Mary Cassatt and her sensitive portraits of women, portraying them as complex human beings (radical at the time).
School Lunches Around the World
Fascinating photo essay of how kids eat in their school cafeteria. Definitely would have been glad to go to school in Italy.
Polpette al Sugo con Polenta
Roughly translated as Meatballs in Tomato Sauce With Polenta, this is pure Italian comfort food. Make it for supper on a Sunday evening, when you have a bit of time to relax and cook.
