The French-inspired home - Kaari Meng

This irresistible book packages the charm of author Kaari Meng and her first-hand knowledge of what makes a beautiful, French-inspired home, which comes from years of combing French flea markets for unique accessories, linens and more. Her shop, French General, offers handpicked linens and collectibles from her yearly visits to the South of France, plus an array of products to awaken the senses, from bath and laundry potions to ribbons, beads and baubles. In this book she distills her sought-after sensibility into 40 projects that bring the sights, scents and textures of the French countryside into every room of the house. Projects include lavender sachets, etched glasses, handmade shelf paper, pillows, napkins, covered hangers, French potting boxes and herbal lotions. As an added bonus, the author has included a selection of her delightful signature-style vintage labels for the reader to use for gifts and dcor, including hang tags, book plates, mailing labels and more, all ready to copy or clip and use.
