Nothing in home decor says French country more than blues and yellows. They even look great peppered with red accents. Welcoming and quaint, geometrical and calico fabrics flow abundant covering soft pillows and windows frames.
Add bunches of red or yellow flowers to suggest the countryside is right outside. In sideboard vignettes, add a favorite Impressionist's print, a pot of flowers, books, and a few pieces of fresh fruit. It flower petals drop, leave them for a day or two.
In the kitchen or entry hall, a red bench with more yellow flowers is a good start. Choose either blue or black as the second color and add throw pillows in a rooster theme, perfect French decor.
The options for French country are fun, festive, and inviting.
Be sure to visit Julia's Hooked on Fridays, Fifi's Fashionable Fridays, and Melissa's A Beautiful Life.

They are such a country combination, those two colors! And the sunny yellow flowers would be a wonderful greeting whenever you walked into the room.

Paint is often used on doors, baseboards, and window adjustment, chair rails, etc. Within-painted doors petroleum based will be maintained until the daily use they receive, and the painted surface will be easier to clean too. Using oil paints on the basis of exterior doors is also an excellent idea for painting projects free of charge "Maleri projekt free"

Help! My living room & kitchen are side by side. Living room is painted 'gambol gold' (a dark golden yellow) & I have a large red couch & rug w/ Waverly red & gold toile fabric accents and curtains.
The bathroom adjacent to the living room entryway is off of the kitchen. It is wallpapered in a red & gold toile paper w/ white accents & cabinetry.
