Basic French Postcards

The idea of France naturally evokes thoughts of flaky croissants, petite promenades, strong coffee, big wooden family tables full of food from the countryside. For us, we also imagine sitting in a country house in the south of France, writing long letters to old friends while light streams in the window. Carol B. Neiley opened Basic French, a shop in Red Hook dedicated to all the small and special parts about France--the language, the aesthetic, the warmth selling goods for the home and the heart. We love these postcards--the artful collages and bold fluorescent messages--available at her store.

Basic French is located at 5 East Market Street, Red Hook, NY, everyday from 11 a.m. - 5 p.m.
