Summary:
How do the
French
create the elusive and alluring sanctuaries they call
home
? This question long intrigued Danielle Postel-Vinay. Thanks to a chance encounter with a
French
expat in La Crosse, Wisconsin, and years of immersive research, she embarked on a quest to discover the secrets of the
French
home
aesthetic. Experiencing first-hand la belle vie--the beautiful life--Postel-Vinay now shows everyone how to create their own
French
sanctuary, a
home
sweet
maison
, no matter where they live. Providing more than just interior decorating and design tips, Postel-Vinay teaches you how to foster the warmth, beauty, and rituals inherent in the
French
home
and create an environment better suited to living a rich, full, connected life. At the center of the book is the idea that your house should be a reflection of you, your hobbies, your family history, your rituals, all the things that make your life unique. A happy
home
is a
home
that expresses your rituals and your taste, not one that relies on prefab décor from a mass retailer.
Home
Sweet
Maison
encapsulates the very heart of the
French
way of seeing the world: set the table formally, adhere to all the conventions of ritual and tradition, then take pleasure in indulgence. It's about using
French
concepts and routines to change our homes, our relationships, and our lives for the better.
