A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Country living is not about hard and fast decorating rules, methods of cuisine, nor even particular regional styles it is, rather, a way of life centred on the companionship of family and friends and to what our surroundings can offer us, reflecting the natural progression of the seasons.This delightful compendium captures this spirit in one beautiful volume, providing practical instructions for creating the country ambience in home decorating, flowers, food, needlecrafts and crafts. There are more than 300 projects to inspire every reader, each fully illustrated with step-by-step instructions for the best and most creative results. Simple yet stunning decorations can be made from the wonderful things you find during a walk in the woods a symphony of golds from autumn fruits and leaves, gorgeous arrangements from fresh and dried flowers, or natural Christmas decorations of bay leaves and dried fruits. Bring a real sense of country tradition into your home by making a Shaker-inspired peg rail, or paint a dowry chest inspired by early American settlers. Use lace or gingham to edge a shelf or use simple needlecrafts skills to create old-fashioned samplers and quilts. Learn how to make authentic country-style gifts for friends and loved ones, as well as natural cosmetic and beauty treatments from organic country ingredients.
