French Country Decor

french country decor 4French country decor is a luxuriously comfortable design option when looking to update your present living space or moving to a new one. French country decor’s design keys are a slightly shabby or rustic looks interlaced with soft, plush linen furniture and pillows. White or soft soft pale color choices and natural wood finished combines to make a French country decor space fresh and beautiful, and always welcoming.

For do it yourself people, sand off or remove old paint from doors or window frames and refinish with a soft white wash, leaving an unfinished or shabby look. Dried hydrangea flowers in white vases or pitchers add a nice touch. Not crazy about dried flowers (like me)? Opt for real looking silk flowers from local art and craft supply stores. Baskets and pillows in soft pale shades complete the French country decor set perfectly. (see below)

Galley Kitchens

DP_Scott-white-galley-kitchen 1I’ve never been a fan of galley kitchens, but many apartments have them, and the more and more I see the great innovative and creative designs I feel like I’ve actually fallen for them. I have to admit, the space must be easy to move around in when preparing a meal, with everything literally within arm’s reach. I love this modern white design found at HGtv.
