French Country Fridays – Favorite Paints, Patio Decor, & a Home Tour

Hello and welcome to French Country Fridays! I should actually call this my favorite and not-so-favorite paint colors! Because in this post I’m sharing this week, I definitely talked about both.

This post is one that is definitely close to my heart as I have had so much trouble with paint colors in the past! From buying 1000 samples and taking forever to decide, to having to re-paint when things didn’t turn out as I planned.

Welcome to another week of French Country Fridays! Today I’m sharing a favorite table of mine ~ a romantic summer table filled with pink peonies and roses.
