French Country Dinner

Creating the ambiance of a French Country table at your next feast begins by taking a "stroll through the Provence" and into your nearest flower shop.

Floral Decorating Ideas
Designs that are fragrant, simple, bountiful and earthy are key elements. Strands of rye grass in white or blue-washed pots tied with a French ribbon are simple and graceful decor for a serving counter or sideboard. Galvanized metal buckets can hold plants or flowers.

Special Touches
Cover small pots of fresh herbs with French print fabric and tie with French ribbons for accent pieces. Set them next to a bountiful floral centerpiece with bright colors that match the fabric.

Suggested Flowers
Rye grass, delphinium, roses, spray roses, iris, sunflowers, flowering branches, dahlias, french tulips, hydrangea, solidaster, heather, and herbs such as rosemary and lavender.
