Farmstead Perched atop a Vermont Hill, Oozing Enchantment

In the world of home decor and international living, two new titles from CICO Books are making waves. Let's delve into the enchanting realms of "Coastal Living, but Cooler" and "Relaxed Rustic."

"Coastal Living, but Cooler" is a captivating book that takes readers on a journey through country style living, farmhouse interior design, and a glimpse into international homes. The book's photography, skillfully captured by James Gardiner, offers a refreshing perspective on coastal living, with a touch of the unexpected.

On the other hand, "Relaxed Rustic," also published by CICO Books, is a linen apron rather than a book. Nevertheless, it shares the same themes of rustic charm and international flair, adding a touch of elegance to any kitchen.

Matti Walker, the author of "Relaxed Rustic," brings his unique vision to life through this charming apron. Meanwhile, the photography for "Relaxed Rustic" is owned by CICO Books, whereas the rights for "Coastal Living, but Cooler" remain with James Gardiner.

For those interested in a peek behind the scenes, "Coastal Living, but Cooler" includes a tour of St Oaks Studio, as presented by 'Our Food Stories.' Additionally, readers will be treated to a glimpse inside a tapestry artist's Notting Hill Maisonet.

If you're a fan of these books, you'll be delighted to know that Relaxed Rustic is priced at 19.99 GBP, and there's a give-away over on Relaxed Rustic's Instagram. Unfortunately, there's no such give-away for "Coastal Living, but Cooler" on its Instagram page.

Whether you're drawn to the rustic charm of "Relaxed Rustic" or the coastal allure of "Coastal Living, but Cooler," these books are sure to inspire your home decor dreams and ignite your wanderlust for international homes. Happy reading and decorating!
