Product Description
Product Description
The Cabbages & Roses look is simple to achieve, welcoming and versatile. Popular as never before, romantic country style is here to stay. Vintage Chic inspires you to create this timeless and accessible look in your own home. Exquisite textiles in delightful faded colours and patterns are used to great effect to create a mood of living that evokes memories of old roses, charming ancient cottages and endless summer days. Masterminded by Christina Strutt, owner of textiles firm Cabbages & Roses, the room-by-room tour of the best of this new decoration shows hundreds of ideas on how to make the most of fresh colours, faded fabrics and junk market finds. Moving through the main living areas of the home, from summer living rooms splashed with soft florals, to family kitchens overflowing with mismatched glass, crockery and cushions through dreamy rose-pink bedrooms, the book also includes romantic hideaways and retreats; entertaining in the country garden, a converted train and even a child's secret treehouse. These are interiors in which to retreat and relax, an embodiment of comfort and charm that creates an oasis of stylish calm, whether you live in a country house or apartment block.

I have bought other Cabbages and Roses Books..and this one looks similar..in fact its almost the same as the book that was published in 2003/4..same photos..I am keeping it ..as my oler one is rather well thumbed now..but I wouldn't bother if you have the other book really as its an expensive mistake and should have been put onto the market as a re-launch..HOWEVER if you haven't got the other book..then buy it..its lovely!

Really disappointing . It's contents lack substance . Having purchased other Cabbage and Roses books, I was very disappointed .Were it not for the the high postage costs from South Africa , I would have returned the book . If this is your first C/R book , I would try the other editions which were lovely .

As a great fan of Cabbages and Roses, and having bought "Homemade vintage" a while ago, I was really looking forward to receiving this book. It is so inspiring, and I love the way they incorporate the use of their beautiful fabrics in every room of the house. As a fabric-collector for many years, I've found many new projects to make.
