Product Description:
Kaari Meng's first-hand knowledge of what makes a beautiful, French-inspired home comes from years of combing French flea markets for unique treasures. Her popular shop, French General, offers handpicked linens and collectibles from her yearly visits to the south of France, plus an array of products to awaken the senses, from bath and laundry potions to ribbons, beads, and baubles. Here, she distills her much sought-after sensibility into 40 charming projects that capture the sights, scents, and textures of the French countryside. They include lavender sachets, lovely etched glasses, pillows, covered hangers, French potting boxes, and herbal lotions.

- On the Nightstand
I like to look at books like this before I fall asleep. I love French homes, but my style is more the sort of home you find in Provence, and this is not that. It's fussy and frilly and feminine, and I should have figured that out before I bought it. I've lived in France and I've never really seen a home like this. This book and the other on jewelry are primarily pitched so that you will visit their store and buy stuff, I think.

- Sooooo Boring!
I should have believed the bad reviews that I read on Amazon and not bought this book. They were right. I could have saved the return shipping charge. This book was such a dissapointment. Nothing new, creative or interesting about it. Also, it has nothing in common with any French lifestyle. I returned it the next day.
