Get Into the Sack: Trend/Treat/Treasure
Think sumptuous fabrics and fabulous textiles, and chances are that “grain sack” would be the last fabric to come to mind.
Unless, of course, it’s a French grain sack.
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) 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…sigh), you can always get that French Country look by incorporating natural fibers, lettered prints, and stripped furniture into your home.
