In this Sonoma farmhouse a white palette and plenty of texture create a French Country home that feels as good as it looks.

Like the jewelry she creates, creates, Laurie Lenfestey’s Santa Fe home is a collage of texture, sparkle, magic, and sentiment that is as personal as it is peaceful.
I know many of you have a fondness for French style (not just French Country) and a penchant for romantic elements.
Fortunately, French and romantic styles are made for each other. And both often meet in a variety of ways––from pristine to rustic, traditional, elegant, vintage, salvage, primitive, and more. But when it comes to the ‘romance’ part of the equation a little frill goes a long way! Think “ruffles with restraint.”
Styles come and go but French Country is one that endures. It owes its longevity to its easy mix of elegance and comfort. I thought it would be a lovely one for the first of many posts and styles. I hope you will enjoy it and find ideas you can apply in your own home.
