Be inspired by French country style stoneware and canisters for kitchen decorating and use. French country kitchens are as beautiful as they are functional. Celebrate the functionality of French Country kitchen decor by displaying unique cooking wines, oils, spices, and vinegars. Show off large ceramic serving platters, pitchers, bowls and colorful ceramic canisters. Display a rustic, well-used cutting board and have it handy for use.
French Country style celebrates the use of worn metals and iron, aged wood surfaces and rough finishes. Choose iron wall decor and wrought iron light fixtures in French Country kitchen design. Locate an iron pot rack above the sink where large pans are washed. Hang them above for drying.

BALANCING DECORATING TASTES IN THE MODERN FRENCH COUNTRY STYLE MASTER BEDROOM
The drapery back drop in this picture creates a dramatic and romantic feel in this French country style master bedroom setting, yet the design maintains its masculine appeal by including iron wall decor in the decorating equation. Artistic scrolls in the Baroncelli iron curtain rod present a romantic French Country feel, but the iron texture of the rod and the iron wall art stay in touch with masculine tastes.
Layers of texture adorn the bed with placement of a French fleur de lis theme runner across the bed and coordinating accent pillows rich in luxury silk trims and fringes.
Romance continues to be a top priority by including candlelight in the bedroom setting. The iron candle sconce design compliments the masculine texture and color theme throughout the room.

French Country Decor Decorating Colors
French Country colors evoke thoughts of nature.
A favorite French Country color combination marries dark blue and buttery yellow, but many interior designers think outside the norm and embellish French style rooms with a multitude of ideal French color palettes. Consider coral, gold and aqua in your French Country decor. Opt for a combination of cranberry red and mustard gold or team brilliant red and sunflower yellow. French country colors emphasize lifestyle and comfort, rather than strict color pallette choices.
|
|
|
When decorating French Country, consider a combination of red and yellow in your decorating theme. Yellow can take on many shades, depths and hues in French decorating. Yellow may be buttery, brilliant and even a dark golden mustard. Red may be bright or may be russet in hue, but the combination of red and yellow represents a classic French duo.
Red and yellow wake up a room. Used as accent colors in accessories or as dominant colors in a favorite upholstered chair, red and yellow pump vitality into a room's design. Red and yellow is a traditional French color combination.
