clear and thorough,
By laura fisher (Houston, TX United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Smart Approach to Home Decorating (Paperback)
I already own a shelf full of decorating books, but this one ranks in the top three for good organization and good information. It has a lot of smallish color pictures, but more importantly, it has specific measurements and structural information that will help you make rooms and furniture more useful and more attractive. It is very user-friendly. I bought it for my daughter, but I sat down to read it completely before I gave it to her, and I learned some things!
