Gorgeous French Country Home decor Looks

Hello. I’m Joanna from Design Shuffle, a wonderful website and blog dedicated to interior designer portfolios and interior design ideas for design enthusiasts. I’m honored to be a guest on the lovely Le Chateau de Fleurs blog. Today, I’m sharing some charming French country spaces which will hopefully inspire you in your own decorating pursuits. Enjoy!

 Distressed woodwork, subdued hues and ruffles are all common in French country style. This living room mixes period style furnishings such as the ornate arm chairs and rustic secretary.

 
 Pops of red give a vibrancy to this living room’s muted palette. All of the furnishings in this space are quite decorative such as the ornately carved settee and daintily painted plates.

 
Layers of pattern are another common element in French country style. This charming dining room features checks and florals along with a patterned rug. The hot air balloon chandelier is lovely. Lots of French country living room decorating ideas can be found in this space.

   
 A linen covered chaise with layers of pattern sits invitingly next to a rustic armoire. Period portraits hang above.

 
 This is a modern take on the French country look with its brilliant pink walls and marble tiles floors. A Venetian mirror is flanked by two grey cabinets. The rug mimics the diamond detailing in the tile.

 
Muted green covers the cabinetry of this French country kitchen. Toile patterned panels hang at the windows flanking the stove surround. Pretty red upholstered bar stools pick up the red of the window treatments.

 
 An antique red cabinet is the focal point of this lovely bathroom. The mix between red and pink is a lovely. This space inspires lots of decorating ideas.

 
A whimsical toile in pale yellow covers an ornately carved chair in a feminine bedroom. The white painted floorboards add a touch of country to the space.

Birdhouse and bird color recognition

Before and after

Birdhouse to attract Hummingbirds

Mimi made this super cute Birdhouse. All she needed was paint and a cute door knob.

This week we learned a little bit about birds and colors that attract them. Did you know?

A bird will be attracted to the color of flowers or food it feeds on and also to it's own color.

Red and Pink will attract Hummingbirds.

Orange for Orioles, hummingbirds.

Yellow for Goldfinches, warblers, hummingbirds.

Blue for Bluebirds and jays.

Gray, brown, black and dark green are wonderful for timid birds like doves, quail and other ground feeders.

White should be avoided as it scares birds away and means for them "Danger or predator".

Coastal Fireflies jar craft for kids

My 12 year old wanted this Coastal theme for her Firefly jar. If you read my Fun summer activity for young children article, you will remember the firefly jar activity. If you do not have the little bugs where you live, this craft should be in your to do list. Most people have the supply for this craft. Making it very cheap.

You will need

A Mason Jar,

3 Star fish,

Net ribbon,

1 stick,

Sand, 

Hot glue gun,

Parchment paper,

White pipe cleaner,

Glow in the dark paint,

Sea glass color paint

This is how you make the fireflies. Cut you parchment paper in the shape of a peanut.Twist your white pipe piece and wrap it around the smaller part. Paint with glow in the dark the tail part. Let dry.

She painted one star with the glow in the dark paint and the other with the sea glass color paint. Let dry.

To assemble. Place your sand, then hot glue your bugs on stick and inside of the jar. Add the stick.

Hot glue a piece of ribbon on the top of the jar to cover it and around the lid. Glue also the 3 star fish.

Coastal Chevron and moss bird house DIY

I thought of making a Chevron Bird house and then the brilliant idea came to cover the roof with moss.

The colors match my interiors, i am into coastal lately, but this house would look amazing with any color.

You will need:

A bird house,

Paint, your choice of colors, here i have white, turquoise blue and lime green.

Painter's tape

Pencil with eraser,

Moss mat available at craft store,

A decorative knob,

Drill for the knob hole.

Hot glue gun.

 Paint the bird house body with the white, base and roof with the green

Using your tape, trace a grid and a line in the middle vertically. You want to make rectangles.

I started my Chevron stripe in the middle and then used the tape to get even stripes.  

 I then painted between the tape stripes, took the tape off and erased the pencil marks. Painted  the Chevron design on all sides.

 I covered the roof  with moss using a glue gun. Drilled a hole and screwed the knob.

My bird house collection is growing

I adore the turquoise Chevron stripes! The Chrystal knob is so precious.

Have a super day!
