Think sumptuous fabrics and fabulous textiles, and chances are that “grain sack” would be the last fabric to come to mind.<\/p>\n
Unless, of course, it’s a French<\/em> grain sack.<\/p>\n The latest trend in interior design? Reusing the humble grain sack to create a look that’s quintessentially Rustic French Chic. From small boutiques (like this fabulous California gem, 3 Fine Grains<\/a>) to chains like Pottery Barn, Restoration Hardware, and Anthropologie, the sack has made a comeback in a big way. And even if you can’t afford the real deal (like this divine chair<\/a>…sigh), you can always get that French Country look by incorporating natural fibers, lettered prints, and stripped furniture into your home.<\/p>\n In need of some further inspiration?
