Just because you do not have much money to spend on redecorating your home does not mean that you cannot go with French country home decor. This style of decorating can be done on even the tightest of budgets as you can pick up many items to use in second hand shops.
French decorating is relaxed with a focus on natural beauty and rustic elements. French décor also is characterized by the use of soft hues of gold, red, blue, pink and green on curtains, bedspreads and tablecloths. You could add a few low cost decorative pillows featuring floral, farm or nature motifs to your living room to create the right French countryside-inspired look that is welcoming and cozy.
Furniture used in French decorating features natural looking dark woods and pieces which are painted non-glossy white. You can easily find low cost vintage furniture at flea markets which keep with this style. If you run across some wooden furniture that needs a facelift, paint it using flat white or off-white paint to give it a rustic, charming appeal. Toss a few decorative pillows about which feature farm or floral motifs and you will be well on your way to bringing a touch of France inside your home.
