A Royal Copenhagen Easter :: as fresh as a breeze, as deep as a deep secret

Royal Copenhagen Easter :: House of Valentina
As our time here quickly winds down (4 weeks + 2 days left), I have found myself spiraling into a panic as I realize that there are so many things that we haven’t seen yet and a slew of things that I have to do again (and again!) because I love them so much, including a visit to Royal Copenhagen.

No matter what time of year you visit the flagship Royal Copenhagen Store, it is always a treat, full of inspiration and wonder, but there is nothing, for me as a foreigner at least, quite so Danish as a Royal Copenhagen Easter.  One of my Danish friends once said that she feels Royal Copenhagen is too traditional and “Grandmotherly” but there is rarely a home that we have been invited into that does not have at least a few Royal Copenhagen pieces present.  Even as someone who loves change and forward movement, some traditions are too precious to throw away and I think they anchor us even as we imagine a new future.

How can anything be quite so compelling as a company that began before the formation of our own country? And that beautiful blue, which is still hand painted!  Lady Helena, a character from Winter’s Tale, a novel written by Danish Icon, Karen Blixon, said it so well:

“…’I have found it at last. This is the true blue. Oh, how light it makes one. Oh, it is as fresh as a breeze, as deep as a deep secret, as full as I say not what.’ With trembling hands she held the jar to her bosom…” 

My SWEET girlfriends from my craft meet up group, Craftenhagen, spoiled me with a very generous gift card to Royal Copenhagen and I spent two hours, perusing, wringing my hands as I tried to decide what to buy, and grabbing a few instagram shots with my phone.  (And my bored husband catching one of himself.)  My kids are really struggling with leaving Denmark, my boys most particularly, so we chose a few things that I hope will always remind them of all the lovely times we have spent around the table of our friends here.  (Fighting tears even now.)

That’s heaven to me! It’s not just about decorating but about self expression and love and excitement and joy!  If your home doesn’t feel like heaven then change it, tweak it, or just scrap it all and start over because we only get one chance to live our best life and I truly believe that it starts at home!
