Rene’s lovely little Seattle home is not fancy or spacious but it exudes charm and comfort. It is in fact a small apartment that embodies Rene’s decorating ingenuity (on a budget) and her take of French country style, which includes a little romance (of course!) and a touch of shabby.
I have a great affection for small homes and have been very lucky to be able to style hundreds of them over the years with Mark Lohman who has also photographed all my books. It always amazes me to see how resourceful and talented homeowners are. They take an ordinary house and turn it into a delightful and personal home. Case in point, Darielle Tennenbaum’s darling cottage in northern California.
Sweet and simple are the secret ingredients for successful summer entertaining outdoors. Easy recipes and resourceful styling ideas pair up to create relaxed gatherings and lasting memories. Mixing a homespun style with carefully gathered accents and a bucolic setting keep the feeling easy and natural. Add elements of refined rusticity, vintage chic, country flair, romantic touches, and stylish comfort for a one-of-a-kind look that is all about more fun than fuss!
