Not comprehensive 1 May 2011
By Harry
I'm just about to buy my first house. I was looking for something to get me started with decorating. This isn't it.
It gives a brief description of lots of different decorating techniques, but I would not feel confident trying them based on information in this book.
This book will equip you to talk about decorating techniques, but not to do them.
