Favorite Project Decorating Book, 4 Mar 2001
By "patti_and_jim" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Weekend Decorator (Hardcover)
Out of all the many decorating books I own, this is my favorite! It has projects for every room in your home; kitchens, bedrooms and bath, living and dining rooms and much more. Every project listed gives you the tools and materials you will need and a time guide to follow. The projects vary from painting and stenciling tiles in the kitchen to colorwashing or stamping your walls. The book has step-by-step instructions for each decorating idea that are easy to follow. At the end of the book, there are helpful tips from different sewing techniques (how to cord a shade) to painting techniques (how to mark Trompe L'oeil panels). Also included are templates for some of the projects demonstrated in this book. I highly recommended this book to anyone who loves to create whether it be sewing your own placemats or stenciling a floor rug!

Cute & Easy, 17 April 2002
By Rebecca Johnson "The Rebecca Review" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Weekend Decorator (Hardcover)
Once you see the "cloud door" and two-tone butterfly stenciled wall, you will know why this book is cutesy. It contains fun projects that are going to brighten up your home without too much work. I've been wondering how to hang some curtains above a doorway and on page 18, they have a wonderful solution.I've never even thought of stenciling tiles before. This project could have all sorts of possibilities if you like to match designs to wallpaper or curtains.
If you are new to sewing, there are so many step-by-step instructions! The painting section is also helpful. They show you the items so you can find them when you head off to the local paint store. The stencil designs are included in the template and stencil section. Love the butterflies!
You will find projects for:
Halls - stone blocks, shade with ties, wood grained door, door curtain, umbrella stand, console table cover, stained floorboards.
Living Rooms - Envelope pillows, marbled fireplace, cube footstool, throw, decoupage screen, roman shade, crackle frames, pleated drapes.
Dining Rooms - table napkins and placemats, stamped walls, reversible tablecloth, faux lacquer cabinet, colorwash walls, lamp, gathered valance.
Kitchens - bench cushions, dragged cabinet doors, checked walls, café curtain, stenciled tiles.
Garden Rooms - Verdigris chair, stenciled floor rug, bolster, distressed door, topiary mural, director's chair.
Bedrooms - appliquéd bed linen, stenciled walls, lined baskets, bed canopy, headboard cover, simple quilt, cloud door.
Bathrooms - organizers, shower curtain, mosaic backspash, window shade, glass panels.
The painting projects are definitely the highlight, you won't believe the stone block wall you can create.
Enjoy!
