Product Description
Product Description
In a world where trends in decorating, like clothing, come and go, classic style is never passé. Classics hold their own for decades, even centuries, because of their enduring beauty and timeless charm. Classic Chic, the third book in the Chatelaine Home Décor series, will show you how to decorate classic rooms with a little pizzazz, so that your home won’t be left with the “museum look” – a pitfall of classic decorating.
Here is information on what periods combine well, on how to put together certain colours, textures, and materials, and on scale, size, and proportion. With Classic Chic, you’ll be able to pull together a home that appears to have evolved over a long period – without spending a fortune on antiques. Classic Chic offers a myriad of inspiring ideas, with more than 30 do-it-yourself projects, including: how to wainscot a room, how to refinish antiques, and how to create a room-divider screen.
