One of the most popular styles of decorating in fine homes today is French country. What does this mean exactly? Well, Country French is reminiscent of the old country - warm, welcoming and rustic. It has sunny elements and covers colors from yellow and gold to burnt orange, bright green, hunter green and cobalt blue. But included with these bright colors are a few duller shades of gray and black that accentuate bright colors with their contrasts. When you're choosing your French country bedding, the options are abundant.

One option to consider when looking into french bedding is the Ballard French country black toile cotton quilt. This is a different look from the traditional comforters you find in so many bedrooms today. This cream background with black floral toile pattern is a perfect example of French country decorating schemes. But more than just the elegant pattern is the soft inviting 100% pre-washed cotton feel. To coordinate with your new quilt would be the nicest of touches.

Another country bedding look that is brighter than the black and cream would be the red and cream floral scalloped edges quilt. It brightens up a dark room and enhances a black or dark stained bed. Matching pillow shams can also be purchased or you can go with a solid color for your pillows to give depth and dimension to your bed.
For French country decorators who are not as keen on floral, there are other options too. Consider the Black and white Veneta Toile Quilt set with the scrolls and flourishes instead of flowers. This dramatic look goes well in either contemporary or traditional homes and is reversible, having the reverse of white with black design on the opposite side. This set also comes with matching pillow shams.
One last look that you may want to use in your French country bedroom is the Black and white Paisley Toile quilt. This is an elaborately quilted item that also offers the flexibility of being fully reversible. Two entirely different looks are available for you to enjoy with seasonal changes. The coordinating bedskirt is also available in a black and white tile print that gives your room an instant appeal.
When decorating in French country designs, let your imagination run wild. Combine the bright colors you love and use the darker colors to pinpoint various furniture items or art work. Your room will then become the haven you've always wanted.
