Hi~ I'm Courtney and I am the girl behind the curtain at French Country Cottage
I am a stay at home mom of 3 inspiring kids and I am an interior stylist and blogger. I started blogging when I found myself needing a little place to call my own and wanted an outlet to feed my passion for creating beautiful rooms.
What I didn't know when I started blogging was just how much I would enjoy it and how many wonderful people I would meet because of it. Blogging has become a much larger part of my passion than I originally thought that it would. I do work in social media with brands and companies but the main focus of my blog is home & lifestyle.
One of my favorite things to do is to find a way to achieve that high end design book look for very little cost- to have beautiful rooms you don't need to spend a lot. Another favorite is taking something and transforming it with paint or with a different purpose. I used burlap from the garden department that I made into a tablecloth. Or the newly purchased bistro chairs that were painted and stenciled to look antique. I also enjoy renovating and redesigning spaces and am a big time DIY girl- so you will see before and afters at my blog as well.
I find inspiration everywhere. A forgotten treasure at the flea market that is instantly transformed in my mind, an elegant antique chair dressed in burlap or even a simple bouquet of flowers on a weathered tabletop are some examples.
French cottage and shabby style rooms are my favorite spaces. Filled with gorgeous antiques, old patina and crystal chandeliers - they are just beautiful and at the same time- they are welcoming, warm and comfortable. Perfect for everyday elegance.
