YOU’RE A FRENCH COUNTRY STYLE LOVER!

Toi belle décoratrice, toi! Your favorite style is elegant, but still warm and comfortable. You love curvy wood pieces with beautiful traditional fabrics.

SO, WHAT THE HECK IS FRENCH COUNTRY STYLE?

French country style decor has a casual elegance to it. It’s warm and comfortable. The furnishings should have graceful and simple lines, with some curves too. French Country style decor features plenty of painted furniture. Buying older furniture and refinishing it with a distressed look would be a perfect fit for this style. Wrought iron or rusted metal accents are sometimes incorporated into this style as well. Fabrics in this style often rely on toile, a very traditional fabric. But the good news is, you can partner toile with stripes, plaids, or solids for plenty of visual interest. French country color schemes can come from all sides of the color wheel. Often this style is paired with the farmhouse look.

Hi, I’m Shannon.

Before we go any further, let me introduce myself. I believe home is the most important place on earth and it’s my passion to help other women create the home they’ve always wanted right where they are.

After a couple of decades of making our house a home (while homeschooling three kids), two years of professional interior design training, and two traditionally-published home decor and organization books, I am so excited to share what I’ve learned with you.
