Bring Monet’s paintings and gardens to life using this gorgeously illustrated book that will teach you how to create a Monet lifestyle from your living room to your kitchen to your garden—from the documentarian and author of Monet’s Palate Cookbook, with the support of the American steward and all the head gardeners at Giverny.

Aileen Bordman has long been influenced by the work of Claude Monet, one of the founders of French Impressionist painting whose esteemed works capturing the simple beauties of fin de siècle French life—from waterlilies to haystacks—have fetched astonishing sums at private auction houses and can be found in the greatest art museums around the globe. With direct access to Giverny through a pair of insiders—her mother, a steward of the Giverny estate, and its head gardener—she transports you to Monet’s garden at Giverny, the third most visited site in France, in Everyday Monet.

Combining the history, palette colors, and designs of Monet’s gardens and paintings in this one-of-a-kind volume, Aileen shows how to encapsulate a home and lifestyle inspired by the artist. Filled with insights, step-by-step instructions, musings, recipes, gorgeous photography, and how-to graphics, Everyday Monet teaches how to grow a garden like Monet, preserve a waterlily inside the home, decorate a dining room table or a bathroom inspired by Monet’s aesthetic, and prepare foods that inspire your inner-Impressionist.

Filled with lush photos of Monet’s milieu—from the gardens of Giverny to the streets of Normandy—and reproductions of Monet’s most famous paintings, Everyday Monet is a practical guide to finding ways to implement Monet’s beautiful designs into any home and garden, whether you live on a country estate or in a city apartment, and is a memorable keepsake Monet devotees will treasure.

Review

"Aileen has captured the essence of Giverny in the beautiful text and photography of Everyday Monet." (Meryl Streep)

"Aileen knows Monet's home and garden at Giverny like few others. Her photographs in particular are worth the price of the book, for they are some of the most sensitive images I have seen of Monet's property." (Derek Fell, Master Gardener)

Aileen Bordman's Everyday Monet is a lovingly curated collection of photos and a deeply personal reveal of Monet's vividly colorful home and enchanting garden at Giverny. Her camera's graceful eye and the firsthand text have captured the ethereal spirit of this country haven. Everyday Monet is more than a poem--it is a poem set to music, a melodic song of tribute to a beautifully tended life, imprinted in history and retold here as an everyday fairy tale come to life." (Barbara Lazaroff ASID, Imaginings Design, and cofounder of the Wolfgang Puck brand)

"Everyday Monet is an extraordinary book filled with the lushness of Giverny. It brings the aesthetic of one of the world's most spectacular painters and his garden home. Personally, looking through every beautiful page of this beautiful book brought back so many memories of when I moved to France and how I would travel to Monet's garden every weekend for inspiration. That is what this book does--inspire. Thank you, Aileen Bordman, for creating something so spectacular for flower across the globe." (Jeff Leatham, Florist, Artistic Director of The Four Seasons Hotel, The George V, Paris)

"Every reader of this book will be immersed in the joy of the artist's color palette. Everyday Monet provides a window into all areas of Monet's life, which goes beyond painting, allowing the reader a glimpse of Monet's thoughts, of his love for the pleasures of the table, and of a lifestyle honoring artistry, to counter life's daily vicissitudes." (Barry Wine, Designer and Restaurateur of The Quilted Giraffe)

5.0 out of 5 stars Monet's Use of Color

I could tell this book was written with passion and love. Having visited Giverny in the spring, I wondered what some of the "filler" flowers were that were mixed with the tulips. The color combinations were absolutely fabulous. Aileen answers with flower identifications but I am still clueless about quite a few of them. Overall, this is a wonderful book and I believe my favorite on Monet.

I own most every book written about Giverny, so was eager to get this the day it was released. Some lovely photos are included and some good tips for floral arrangements and decor ideas. A handful of recipes are included as well. There is very sparse identification of plants featured in pictures or bouquets--very few Latin names or cultivar names. The rosters of plants ordered by Monet for his lily pond are an excellent inclusion.

Everyday Monet is beautiful. We owe everyone involved a debt of gratitude for saving the gardens at Giverny. I recommend reading this book before going to Giverny to understand better the enormity of what is in front of you while there. If a trip to France is not in the future Everday Monet is still a book that belongs in the kitchen, in the garden over a glass of rose or on your favorite table for display. Also a unique gift.

I really love this book. I flip through the pages nearly everyday. There are all sorts of ways to experience Claude Monet at Giverny everyday - paint, garden, menu. As for me, I am re-creating the kitchen and dining room in miniature, and, someday, most of the home and gardens. This has already been done, but it is why I bought the book.

Everyday Monet is an excellent book, both beautiful and very informative. It is far better - and a better price - than some other books that have been mentioned here.
If you don't have the opportunity to go to Givenchy in person this book is the next best thing.
