GREAT INSPIRATION FOR DO-IT-YOURSELF DECORATORS

Wonderful reference tool for helping us do-it-our-selfers in the quest for easy, yet stylish decorating projects for the home. Having recently moved to a new home and feeling the desire for a change in my decor without spending a bundle, I purchased several decorating idea books for guidance. After going through all the books I must say....."THE NEW HOME DECORATOR" is the absolute best! It is packed full of over 100 uncomplicated projects with beautiful photographs that walk you through each stage as you transform everyday objects and outdated rooms into stunning revitalized treasures. The book is divided into six different chapters according to different rooms of your house. I personally favor the chapter on bedrooms....the "pistachio-shell border" is so easy and fun, but really the whole books is easy and fun. I highly reccomend this book to everyone and now all my friends are heeding my advice and either coming over and burying their nose in it all the time for ideas or begging to borrow it. But it's the only book I own that I'm not willing to lend out.....honestly I cringe at the thought of a friend or neighbor beating me to the punch on an idea or project from the book. Even if readers aren't interested in the actual projects themselves, the photos are so inspiring and innovative that their own creative genius will begin flowing and any decorating dilemnas or stalemates on ideas they were faced with will be passe. I don't think it has seen a bookshelf yet! 5 STARS for decorating enthusiasts!
