Chic Provence from Kit Golson Design
http://chicprovence.blogspot.com
Bienvenue! I'm an interior designer and I like to reuse old things to create relaxed elegant interiors. I fell in love with Provence in the South of France. My southern French friends have taught me to love pragmatic beauty in my surroundings and in the places I design. Being thrifty and careful with water and energy comes naturally in Provence. The French have a secret: to live well is to live simply, surrounded by comfort, style and wonderful art in harmonious color and light.
