Synopsis

Country style has always meant simplicity, practicality, and comfort--now it's also wonderfully fresh, crisp, and subtle, too. Out go overpowering colors, stripped pine and clutter; in come pale pretty florals, linens and sheers, distressed painted furniture, and a clean uncrowded look. Transform your space with 45 projects that include a rustic wall and floor, manglecloth (raw linen) kitchen curtains, an antique sofa cover, gingham eiderdown, clever storage solutions (like a Victorian cupboard), garden chairs. Nothing takes more than a weekend to complete!

From the Back Cover

New Country Style is a compilation of interior design ideas based on the simple and relaxed atmosphere of country living. Full-color photographs and beautiful step-by-step watercolor illustrations help even the novice do-it-yourself homemaker put together a style that exudes a fresh, clean look and is inviting and comfortable to live in. The materials range from knick-knack oddities to mismatched china, from luxurious, soft-toned linens to antique fabrics and priceless needlework details. The color palate is faded checks, stripes, and spots, white-on-white detail, pale florals, and breezy beiges.
Inside you will find: projects that range from wall and floor design, storage areas, furniture refinishing, and curtains and bedding; every project is accompanied by instructional art; room-by-room organization that makes designing simple and goof-proof; estimated work times help readers anticipate level of difficulty.
New Country Style belongs on the shelf of anyone who's every considered redecorating.
