FRENCH FINESSE – A CHARMING COUNTRY MANOR!

November 15, 2011
  • Share
Pink and grey foyer in a French mansion with stone tile floor, lantern light, double doors leading to the living room and an arched cabinet

Perche is a bucolic district just two hours south of Paris.  Known for its rolling hills, chateaus and manors, Perche is known for being an idyllic country setting.  Here in Perche sits this country manor…with its classic architecture and decor.  Texture, patterns and subtle color are the order of the day in this home’s interior design…all blending together to create a classic French home.

Pink and grey living room in a french mansion with black sofa, two pink wingback chairs, a marble fireplace wth a traditiona mirror, paneled doors, chandelier covered in leaves and a long grey ottoman
Classic architecture complete with decorative moldings, a marble fireplace and paneled doors gets a modern twist with the grey, black and pink color palette. (above)

A large black kitchen island contrasts perfectly with the grey cabinetry throughout this large country kitchen (oh and notice the pink trash can too!)(above)

A checkered painted wood floor in soft grey and pink adds visual interest to the bedroom floor. (above)

My favorite room is the kitchen and then comes the foyer.  I would happily take this house if someone offered it to me.  Would just need to figure out how I would do my day job from France! 🙂

What do you think of this home?  Like it or leave it?  Please advise!

Happy Tuesday!

    the kitchen is also my favorite room, it’s just gorgeous, I don’t know if it has to do with the island being a different color, because now that is my thing, or if it’s because of the grey, that is MY color.

    I really love the kitchen. The contrast of the dark island with the light cabinetry makes things really beautiful. And the touches of gold really warm things up!

    It’s beautiful – all of it, very appropriate to a country home/manor! I could get used to it 😀

    Gray and pink is always a winning combination–tres chic! I love the painted floor but I’m wondering when the travertine floor was added. French limestone would have been a better choice. Otherwise, the spaces are lovely with many interesting architectural details.

    Best, Cindy

    What a beautiful home. i love the touches of pink and the pink walls. I tend to choose a brighter shade pf pink myself because of the harsh sunlight here in Texas.

Behind-the-scenes: Fun work trip to visit the COCOBehind-the-scenes: Fun work trip to visit the COCOCOZY bedding collection at the Welspun showroom in New York. Met with some buyers, had a fun time with the Welspun team, then capped off the weekend with a visit with friends. It is a long process to get bedding in stores across the country...showing the collections at textiles market is one of the first steps!
If you're interested in learning how I have gotten @cococozy products into stores around the country over the years including in major retailers...follow along...just one entrepreneur's journey. :)

Today is my birthday but...I don’t want to celeb Today is my birthday but...I don’t want to celebrate...I want to help.
I want to make a meaningful impact in our greater Los Angeles community suffering from the fires. I invite you to join me in transforming birthday wishes into support for one local organization on the ground in Pasadena/Altadena.
I have made a contribution today already to the LA Fire Relief Fund created by @victorybiblechurch in Pasadena. They are actively assisting families in need in both Pasadena and Altadena who have been affected by the devastating Eaton Fire.
Although I don't have a personal connection to Pastor DeCuir or the church, I was searching for an organization that is helping in the Altadena area. A well respected civil rights attorney I follow @leemerrittesq is on the ground helping the church members and community members with legal services in the wake of the fires. I hope by contributing to their efforts, we can extend a helping hand to those facing significant challenges during this difficult time
To donate, please visit their website at https://vbcpasadena.org/ (link in bio as well). Every contribution, no matter the size, brings hope and relief to those who need it most. Tell them you heard about them from me.
Your generosity to the Los Angeles community is the best birthday gift I could ask for.

Happy New Year! 🎉✨ As we step into this freshHappy New Year! 🎉✨ As we step into this fresh chapter, I’m reminded of the beauty of starting anew and I like recommitting to goals at the top of the year. Nothing set in stone but just an overall vision of what I'd like to do and who I would hope to help along the way.
This year, my mantra is: **dream big, act boldly, treasure the small joys, continue to lead with kindness and to have as much empathy as possible for others **. Just a few things...😂
I’m also deeply committed to helping people who follow along to achieve their dreams. I'll be curating captivating interior design inspiration with COCOCOZY that will hopefully give you ideas and dreams for your own space. I will also be empowering you to realize the value of your influence with Chirpyest by earning cash back for sharing and shopping. I hope to be open about the journey of the COCOCOZY product line. I want to share real time behind the scenes how the line is being built and how we are growing Chirpyest; both examples of the not so linear journey of building businesses from the ground up. I hope these stories spark you to push your own boundaries and shake out of your comfort zones.
Lastly, in 2025, I’m committed to surrounding myself with people who have a positive vibe about them while striving to be that same light for others. Luckily, I have a great start on this with an amazing family and fantastic group of friends - a fantastic support network.
My wish for you in 2025: May this year bring you clarity, courage, and the confidence to pursue all that makes you happy.
What’s one thing you’re committing to in 2025? Let’s inspire each other in the comments! 💬❤️
Let's get to this...am ready 2025!
