French Country Cottage STYLE

[Ellene Meece]

I love red. Therefore, French Country Cottage Style is among my favorites.

Houzz explains, "Just like it sounds, French country style springs from the gentle hills and valleys of rural France. It's an unstudied, collected approach, built on firmly entrenched local traditions and on cherished objects handed down through generations. Simple and sincere yet effortlessly elegant, it satisfies the soul as much as the eye."

Houzz continues about the secret of the French Country Cottage style, "Blurring the boundaries between inside and out is a cornerstone of life in France's rural regions (indeed, throughout the nation). Thus, no French country interior is complete without flowers, whether they're clustered in a pottery vase, blooming on linen upholstery or carved into a wooden mirror frame."

My son and I painted our old hoosier with green milk paint and also painted our kitchen wall brick red. The rooster and hen kind of give it that French Country look that I love :)

So cute! You are right, the rooster and hen seal the French country image.
