5.0 out of 5 stars Inspirational! 10 April 2009
Format:Paperback
I bought this book because it was the only one I could find which offered ideas and instructions for decoupaging in fabric, It has proved to be extremely useful. The instructions are clear and precise and the illustrations colourful and inspiring, I have already completed four projects by taking methods from the book and using my own ideas. I have even decoupaged an old radio!(My friends are really impressed) Also it's so much fun to do I'm afraid it's becoming rather addictive,no object is safe!!
I thoroughly recommend it!.

All the projects in this book are repeats from Ms. McGraw's 1997 publication "Painting and Decorating Furniture". If you have the first book don't bother getting this one.
