4 Rustic-Chic French Country Decor Ideas We Love

4 Rustic-Chic French Country Decor Ideas We Love

Oh, the French countryside and the joys of the French Country decorating ideas that come along with it! With the change of season, we keep finding ourselves thinking about the quaint villages and breathtaking landscapes of the rustic French country. Paris may have our attention in the spring, but this time of year as the leaves begin to fall, our inspiration is of the pastoral: finely upholstered chairs and sofas, provincial furniture, exposed wood ceilings, and intricate details in every aspect of the home.

The French country is synonymous with rustic elegance, and what two words could better describe what we want for fall style? Here at the Kuotes we’ve put together five French Country decorating ideas to incorporate into your home that are perfect for the fall season. Shop the look at KKH here, and read more for some rustic inspiration!


1. French Country is All About the Kitchen

The French country kitchen is where your rustic charm will shine. And it’s the perfect room to spruce up in time for Thanksgiving dinner and other fall gatherings. A clear way to add French country style to your kitchen is with a wooden kitchen island. The wood creates a lived in, country cottage look that will add richness to the kitchen. Want to add a modern twist? Paint your French country kitchen island in a bold color, like the sublime blue island in the example above. And if a wooden island is too “farmhouse” for your personal style, you can still incorporate rustic charm with subtler elements, like wooden counter stools upholstered in linen or leather. What a cozy touch for the fall season!

2. Pair Rustic Finds with Sophisticated Pieces

Think of a chocolate covered pretzel: salty and sweet, crunchy and smooth, all in all a delightful combination due to its contrasting components. The same logic can be applied to French country decorating. A rustic iron chandelier can be paired with an elegant, modern carved arm chair for gorgeous rustic elegance. Or try a tufted French country ottoman (great for storage too!), and light up the space with our Edisto beaded chandelier (it’s a blogger favorite). The moral of the story is: French Country doesn’t have to mean kitsch! Add in some modern elegance, and you’ll be sure to elevate your look.

3. Choose a French style Bed Frame

To give your bedroom the rustic style we love for fall, try adding a wooden bed frame like our French Country Belgian Oak Upholstered Sleigh Bed featured above. It’s an Instagram favorite! Just imagine yourself in a bed like this with a good book, a pumpkin spice latte, and a warm throw. Sounds like an autumn dream, right? Or try a French country four-poster bed with an iron frame for a simpler (but still detailed) approach to the French country style.

4. Get Your Dining Room Fall-Ready with a Reclaimed Wood Table

Fact: a meal is better with ambiance. And nothing says French country rustic elegance like a reclaimed wood dining table. A wooden dining table can also help to create the rustic farmhouse, family-style dinner that fall begs for. Wood compliments almost any dining room with its neutral tones. French country dining tables often incorporate detailed scrolling or intricate carvings if your prefer the more traditional look. Not to mention, a gorgeous dining table will impress the holiday dinner guests.
