Happy Friday friends and welcome into another round-up post (and more) with some of the most inspiring ideas for you today from talented bloggers! The image above is one that I shot a few years back during the fall season. Things are a little bit different now, as the chairs have…moved themselves to our beach home, and are now they are in the breakfast nook. You can see how I recovered the chairs in this post

Although I did love the FRENCH CHAIRS in our home, the scale was a little bit small and undersized for the table in the dining room at our house. I told you in THIS POST…in the world of design, SCALE is the thing that I struggle with the most!

FRENCH COUNTRY DECOR IDEAS

 

Janet Coon shabbyfufu romantic homes magazine
Modern French country style decor mixed in with SHABBY CHIC FURNITURE is evident in most of what I decorate and style with for myself or anyone that I work with. Above is my dining room at the beach house all set for Christmas. It might be a tad early for talking Christmas, but it is almost October. The next few months are going to be flying by for sure!  I’ve taken the image above straight from ROMANTIC HOMES MAGAZINE where I have a feature in the new November CHRISTMAS ISSUE. I feel very blessed to have had a wonderful long term working relationship as a stylist/photographer with the folks at ROMANTIC HOMES Magazine. You can find more of my beach home in the CATEGORY here on the blog called BEACH HOME. We’ve been doing some decorating and I hope to do some remodeling going forward, so that’s always the place to find those posts.
