I love French chic style furniture and when I was younger
this was like a must have bedroom!
I think we all had this moment in our lives.
Even as a grown up I had my bedroom in a French chic style before I have moved
to this apartment! Whenever I speak to people and mention French chic, people automatically
give me answer- its soo expensive to create that! Here I am again, your rescue
to find the style, explain the style and make you style your furnish your bedroom
without the price tag!

There few things you need to have in mind if you want to
create French Chic bedroom:
create French Chic bedroom:
1.
Furniture style. It’s very easy to get lost
here. Look for the ornament types, the leg types and shapes. Basically you want
to match you dressing table to side table and cabinet. It’s very easy to mix it
wrong! When you buy online furniture, there are not always collections and
often to save money we just tend to pick cheaper options. This isn’t a problem if
you know what to pick! I have showed a pretty example below on what works what
doesn’t! Is the leg design matching? Remember, leg need to be the same so the
front shape.

Finish of the handle. Is it copper, bronze or
maybe gold? I mean gold and silver works in jewelery but I wouldn’t say particularly
when it comes to furniture so be careful with that.

3.
Metal or iron finishes. You can mix metal curved
iron bed as long you have few other items and the curve direction matches the
furniture direction. French design is very delicate. When you have generic of topamax Shabby chic-
then you have more vintage and heavier furniture. Here, you want to ‘’fly’’ in
your bedroom. I know sounds super silly, but basically you want to feel fresh
and light, not overwhelmed with heavy furniture. Metal frame bed like this below cost £95! Bargain!

Mirror, mannequin and screen it’s a must!
Basically, this will make your bedroom complete. Try to go for screen with
elegant print on. This mannequin is for example £35 at homesdirect365.com

Check your local carboot and check gumtree or
ebay! Look for the specific shapes and you can always repaint that ugly dark
wood!

Delivery. Try to search into website where you
can get most of the items from same place. It will save you few pennies. Furniture
delivery are the most expensive and once the company is sending you one item,
usually if go over certain price, the rest will be delivered for free!

Aniu, genialne to zestawienie "good mix" i "bad mix"! 🙂
I love white furniture and the shabby chic style!
My bedroom SO needs a good sort out and decorating. I love this look, thank you for the interesting info. Kaz x
Great post, I've actually learnt something. When I did up my room I just found pink and white things that looked cute and went from there but I did realise some things don't match and look odd with my bed. It's great to learn new things and when I move out and do up my house I'll know what to do a little better.
Well I never knew half of that, especially about the legs x
I never knew the rules of the legs so have learnt something new today. I think the French look is pretty but we tend to go for chunky in our house :-/
I really like the French looks, so clean and chick
What a gorgeous looking room. I'm falling in love with white furniture atm but I think the whole French thing is probably a bit fussy for me.
Every time I read your blog, it makes me want to completely change my bedroom!
Great decor ideas here Anna. Bookmarking this post.
Such beautiful decor and I love that mannequin too. French chic is elegant and timeless.
French chic is elegant and a timeless style which any woman would covet. I adore the decor and mannequin too.
Such beautiful decor! Loving that mannequin too (but I'd use it for dress making!) 😀
I love the whole french chic bedroom look 🙂 xxx
There's so much to think about, this is such a helpful post! Great tips 😀 x
I love these ideas – if I wasn't so bad with all things white I could totally see myself having a room like this. x
I love this look too! Bootfairs are brilliant for finding this style at a great price though they sometimes require a bit of TLC.
I love French chic..my bedside table fits the theme and I will eventually get some other items too
