CLICK HERE to find it on Amazon. The first edition went out of print in December, so we’ve been waiting and waiting for the second edition to be available. And now it is.
It’s larger than the first edition for one thing. I’ve expanded the section on things you can add to your home that add farmhouse French style, and I’ve added a tutorial on making a long drop bedspread from drop cloth fabric (for under $40). I’ve added a lot of new photography as well.
I really like this version so much better than the first edition. I removed some photos that weren’t my favorites, and made the new photos much larger. I took all of the feedback from the first edition, and used it to make this edition the best it could be. I sure hope you like it!!!
In other news my rug that I designed for Dash and Albert is one step closer to being a reality. I just approved the design and here is the 2×3 ft version of the rug. It’s made from linen, which holds up as well as wool, but doesn’t stretch like wool does. I will be getting a larger version of the rug later, and I can’t wait to have it in my home, and share it with you. Not the best photo, but I had to take a quick photo before I sent it back to Dash and Albert.
There’s so much more going on here behind the scenes, but I’ll save that for another day.
Hi Anita! I will be ordering your book after I write this.. ?. Can you recommend a sewing machine as I would like to learn how to make curtains, pillow covers, and eventually slipcovers? I was looking at the Brother brand on Amazon.
Denise, I sent you an email, but yes you can find my sewing machine recommendation on my Amazon page (affiliate link) CLICK HERE.
I just received my new second edition of French Accents and can’t wait to read it. Of course I have the original version, too. First impression of the new: larger and better photos, additional decor content and new DYI features. Congratulations Anita! I’ll post a review on Amazon once I’ve had a chance to read it more closely.
Chris, thanks so much!!!! I did really work to get bigger, better photos, so I’m glad you agree!
I had this on pre-order with Amazon, and received it the other day. I’m having such fun reading it and enjoying all of the beautiful pictures! I’m only a little way through, and it has already given me such great inspiration for projects I can do on my own house!
Oh Keli, I’m so excited, thanks so much for your feedback. If you have time, I would love it if you left a review on Amazon.
Done, just got notification that Amazon has posted my review 🙂
You are so amazing Keli! You made my day!
