Artist and designer Jenny Hansen had her eye on a cozy cottage in her neighborhood in New Hampshire her whole life. When she finally got the opportunity, she bought the house and spent almost five years renovating it.

Jenny named her space, "Savoir Vivre," which translates to, "know how to live," and the moment you walk in, you can see why. Originally a carriage house for a farm down the street, this fairytale cottage features stone walls, hand-cut motifs and a house within a house. Follow along as she takes us through her unique, cozy space and watch the magic come to life with before and after photos of the renovation.
