Find inspiration in decorative country living with Country Brocante Style.

Lucy Haywood is the creator of The Country Brocantes - home and lifestyle fairs held in idyllic rural surroundings. In Country Brocante Style, she introduces her pretty and accessible signature look into the home, fusing two classic and enduring decorating traditions - English country style and French-inspired vintage styling. There's plenty of classic French 'brocanterie' - old textiles, vintage furniture and decorative pieces - alongside lifestyle brands, gardenalia, handmade textiles, cottage-garden flowers and other homewares. In the first section, Country Brocante Style, Lucy leads you through the colour palette of the Brocantes and discusses key pieces of furniture and decorative pieces before presenting creative ideas for putting the look together. In the second section, Country Brocante Interiors, she pays a visit to the homes of the dealers and the buyers who flock to the fairs.

Decorative country style is more popular than ever and The Country Brocante will inspire you to create this romantic, timeless style in your own home.

About the Author

Lucy Haywood started her career as a designer for British Airways before going on to work for Lady Annabel Astor at OKA. However, her passion for interiors, antiques and vintage was sparked many years earlier when, as a tiny child, she was taken by her father to numerous antiques fairs and house clearances to hunt for hidden treasure. The Country Brocante fairs came into being when Lucy decided to create an event where visitors could shop and enjoy a day out and both hobby dealers and professionals could sell their wares. The Country Brocante now takes place four times a year against a backdrop of some of England's most beautiful scenery and stately homes.
