Decorating With Roosters For A French Country Look
This post is all about fabulous poulets, their posh coops, and how they have been used to create a design trend. French Country interior decorating is inspired by sunny, rural, Southern France .Generally, there are two ways you can go here: the white, almost "shabby" look - pale, romantic and elegant with exposed natural elements such as stone walls and floors and beamed ceilings. The second kind, being featured in this post, has a more rustic, country feel - heavier and more solid with warmer colors, textures, and darker woods. Both of these looks will work well separately or together to give you the French Country decorating style.
When selecting snap shots or add-ons for this sort of French Country, roosters are a totally regular French theme ? They are the national brand of France...So pick out anything with roosters on it, to make sure you get a very genuine, French Country indoors layout appearance. While roosters can be used in any room, kitchens are the fine place to carry roosters into your layout. Just a phrase of warning, don't over do it and have roosters all over the area. Be diffused and pick out your add-ons properly. You could have a higher, extra subtle look.

I have a special place in my heart for roosters. I had one as a pet who would chase us kids on our bicycles just like a dog. His name was Chester and everybody loved him.We lived in town so it was unusual to see a big white leghorn rooster roaming around the neighborhood. Sometimes he might be a block away but when you called his name, he would crow to let you know where he was. It was hilarious!! Some college aged boys on the street got him for Easter one year and a birdbath fell on him and hurt his leg. They gave him to me and I nursed him back to health but he always had a limp. He was a fun pet and provided me many good memories of growing up with an unusual sidekick.
