How to Achieve French Country Design - A Few Tips with Eiffel Tower Vase

By Jaron L. Mcgarrah


Not any French Country design and style plan's complete without having the obligatory nod towards the Eiffel Tower or even an Eiffel Tower vase. Simple things which allow the eye recognize exactly where they're going can bring a design strategy together like nothing else.

Important elements in style and design are the visual juxtaposition of light and dark, gentle and hard surfaces, heights and weights of things within a room. A room with all one color without any accent to draw the attention is extremely boring and flat. Likewise droll is usually a room with simply hard surface areas, or high cabinets. Design and style will need to flow and have wide variety.

Let's take a look at an admittance hall and see exactly how adding or changing only a couple of items can change a contemporary suburbanite track house into an inviting French foyer.

The admittance table is where you will set the stage and notify the visitor where they are going with their little mental trip around the world. You don't have to be very bold or overly refined, one or two simple adjustments are all that are needed. Change the bare table top with a beautiful lace runner.

The morning meal room can usually benefit from a very simple alter to give it the French country experience. Change the chair cushions by using a French laundry print; add soft muted fabrics in light layers into the table top, while in the center place a wire Eiffel tower vase that can hold a bouquet of dried lavender.

The bedroom can go French in the heartbeat cheaper than $300. Color the walls a soft blue or green; replace the bed linens using a crocheted coverlet. Hang a huge ornate mirror painted white (then antiqued) using gold gilding on a few of the more ornate sections in order that it appears old and weathered (DIY $50).

Simple changes using soft fabrics with an Eiffel Tower vase are able to turn almost any room to a French Country masterpiece of design.
