Whether you want to make grand curtains like those from a chateau or paint a cupboard in rustic style, Creating the French Look shows you how. Twenty-five step-by-step projects demonstrate the three definitive styles of French decoration: The gilded elegance of the French chateau, the simple French farmhouse and its more colorful Provençal counterpart, and the urban, tailored town house. · Discover how to achieve French decorative style by using the right colors and fabrics. · Get to grips with scale--from the grand statement of the painted armoire to the finishing touch of a little posy of lavender. · Each section includes a wealth of techniques using paint and textiles.

My book came in excellent condition very quickly and I like it very much. Liz
FRENCH FLAIR MADE EASY:
This is a good book for adding a French touch to your home and furniture pieces. You do not have to use every idea, especially if you do not sew, although most instructions are rather clear and the full color pictures really help. I do enjoy painting walls and furniture, and this book can make a boring vintage piece or a fake antique look like an expensive home boutique item. You can decide if your french style is chic or rustic or a marriage of the two through most of the ideas presented in this book.
Helpful Book:
This book has wonderful pictures and helpful instructions to create the French look. Couldn't have come at a better time since we're redoing our kitchen in French Country style.
Lovely pics...and a GREAT how-to book!:
I drooled over this book in a bookstore and then came home and ordered it from Amazon for a better price! This book contains a lot of "how to" sections...faux painting/finishing, simple sewing projects, giving objects a patina, etc, so that you can create the French look...it's not just a pretty picture design book. However, it DOES have wonderful pictures which will certainly inspire any French decorating aficionado --or anyone who just LOVES simple/rustic/shabby interior decorating like I do!
