Wonderfully accessible ideas for maintaining a stylish home,
drawing on the ways French mothers and grandmothers manage their
households. French houses ooze with charm-and their inhabitants,
despite busy schedules, regularly entertain at home. What are the
secrets for leading such a chic lifestyle? In this insightful tome,
lavishly illustrated with images of a country residence in a
romantic French town, de Dampierre shares her knowledge of ways to
achieve a warm and inviting home. Her continental traditions make
beautifying your house a joy. Household chores-from stocking the
pantry to washing and storing delicate linens to cleaning wooden
and stone surfaces-are discussed. Tips for adorning your home range
from lining dresser drawers with pretty papers and enhancing them
with homemade scents to creating delicate floral arrangements of
fresh-cut blooms for pleasant accents throughout your rooms. Basic
instructions are also provided for designing a simple and
attractive aromatic kitchen garden full of herbs, fruit, and
vegetables, whether on a plot of land or in attractive containers;
its produce then becomes the basis for preparing fresh, seasonal
recipes to share with family and friends.
