DESCRIPTION:
A BEAUTIFUL WORTHWHILE BOOK I asked for this for my birthday and I am absolutely thrilled with it. If I were re-doing my kitchen now I honestly wouldn't be able to decide what route to go in because of all the ideas here. I must say one of my favorites is the brown and pink kitchen. Who would have thought!It's packed with beautiful photos and charming ideas. It would make a great coffee table book too.. Misleading & Disappointing Punk Not sure why someone would create a book called Country French Kitchens where not a single photograph included is of a kitchen that is actually in France. In fact, this book is a collection of American kitchens done in the vaguely French country style. Very misleading and disappointing book.. "worthy of praise!" according to Nell West. As I sat in my bland, contemporary kitchen reading through Ms. Fernandez's lovely table top book, I realized it was time for a changeI allowed the windmills of my mind to spin. I saw for the first time such great potential inspired by the many innovative, functional yet beautiful designs that the author included in her colorful, informative, well-written book. I highly recommend Carolina Fernandez's, Country French Kitchen book to spur your own thoughts and imagination or to give as a gift to complement someone's already designed kitchen. I trust you enjoy this book as much as I!
