Charles Faudree, Details

Charles Faudree is Master of Country French, his layered interiors are to die for. He is out with his new book "Charles Faudree Details", which is the final book of his series on Country French interiors. This book is about details and finishing touches that give the layered looks he is famous for.

Here is what he says about Details; Details may seem like a small subject, but these finishing accessories are by far the most important part of the decorating. People's lives are expressed by little details. They give a room its soul.






I have scanned these pictures for the post. My Apple computer and HP scanner are not at very good terms with each other, the pictures are not great, but hope will do some justification to this beautiful book.

Charles faudree; Details are like frosting on the cake, and who doesn't like frosting best?
