One of my Favorite Little Decorating Tips Books

This book is full of tips that cover choosing colors, painting, wallpaper, faux finishes, tiling, decorating woodwork, painting furniture, covering floors, window treatments, lighting and much more. Each section has a divider line that makes it easy to find the topic for which you are looking. Every section/paragraph is a tip and there is no space wasted with useless hints or repetitive words. Highly recommend.

Handy guide with lots of tips . . .

. . . I really like this decorating guide. It's simple and easy to use - has some great tips and gave me several ideas just from flipping through the pages, reading the quick hints and looking at the pictures. Includes sections on painting, tiling & covering walls, window treatments, covering floors, decorating woodwork and shows some great finishing touches. The index at the back makes finding what you need simple and the numerous pictures and illustrations gives you an easy reference to follow.If you want a book to help you get started - this is it.
