Farmhouse French Country Style Kitchens
The kitchen is truly the heart of the home
Country French is defined by its elegant look, with a touch of nature and country mixed in.
The French manor farmhouse look is rustic, old, weathered and worn, while at the same time warm and cozy and inviting.
You can achieve the same look by bringing in these elements .....
Rustic country-inspired details, wood shutters, wooden beams and faux finishes (stucco, patina, distressed wood).
Open shelving and farmhouse sinks and dried herbs
Florals Lavender, Sunflowers and nature inspired elements,
Decorative ceramic and pottery kitchenware, rooster accents, copper pots
French farmhouse style conveys the warmth, beauty, comfort, charm, and joie de vivre - the art of living - so many of us desire in our kitchens.

for French Country enthusiasts
Celebrating the distinctive decorative style inspired over many centuries by the French countryside.
French Country Living is an invaluable resource for anyone who has ever longed to bring home a piece of France.
Combining evocative photographs with elegant and illuminating text by Caroline Clifton-Mogg, the book argues that the familiar romantic landscape is still a vital part of France, and that the roots of most French people lie firmly in the rural way of life.
The first part, The Elements, explores the ingredients that make up the whole: the subtle color palette of soft warm grays, cloudy pinks, and misty greens, the traditional materials, the furniture, and the textiles.
Then there are the distinctive, often unchanging, objects and accessories, from ceramics to silver to pictures.
The second part. The Spaces, looks at the overall style.
Inspired by the French countryside this chandelier is a showcase of textural beauty. Featuring six curved arms in a textured rust finish that highlights the scrolling frame with everlasting elegance. Antique gives this chandelier a worn, rustic look that is perfect for cottage and French-inspired decor settings. Candelabra bulbs complete the antique, classic look of this distinctive ceiling light.

The kitchen is truly the heart of the home, and nowhere is this exemplified
with more style and personality than in France.
Distinguished by striking craftsmanship, bold colors, and vintage accents,
the French country kitchen - whether a rustic retreat or an
urban oasis - is always unique and inviting.

French Country Style
What has come to be known as the French country look is really the style of Provence -- the sun-drenched region in the south of France centering on Arles, Avignon, and Aix-en-Provence.
It is a land of cool stone chateaux, farmhouses painted in ochres and dusty roses, country roads bordered by rows of graceful cypress trees, fields of lavender, trellised grapevines, red tile roofs, ancient hilltop cities such as Les Baux, and the vivid blue of the Mediterranean along the Cote d'Azur.
The clarity of the light and the intoxicating sensuality of the landscape inspired Cezanne and Van Gogh.
What could be more Parisian than a cafe?
Although far from definitive (no Edith Piaf in sight!), this enchanting compilation delivers a perfect aural snapshot of what spending a late summer afternoon in a French cafe actually feels like.
The supreme elegance and understated approach that lie at the core of these 13 tracks will delight fans of sophisticated pop.
As is the case with previous Putumayo releases, the sequencing is seamless, combining the endearingly old-fashioned flavor of George Brassens with the iconoclastic romanticism of George Gainsbourg and the sultry whispers of a youthful Brigitte Bardot.
Better yet, the disc spends some valuable time introducing listeners to a new generation of French musicians who have embraced the traditional chanson format while incorporating fresh elements into the mix.
Try the light-as-a-feather caress of female vocalist Enzo Enzo, the sweet playfulness of the electronica-informed Mathieu Boogaerts, and the irrepressible optimism of Paris Combo - a jazzy quintet that represents the French cafe ambiance at its cosmopolitan best.
Music evokes images of Paris. Soundtrack to listen to while sipping champagne and eating French pastry.
