I knew I had to have this book the minute I browsed through it. It not only gives you tons of creative ideas, but sparks your creativity to come up with ideas on your own. This is not a step-by-step “how to” book. It’s more of a decorating and idea guide.
I loved the carved squash and gourds. You better believe my house will be filled with them next fall. I also loved the simple groupings of candles – whites/creams, fun colors, fun shapes and sizes. And who can resist the various themes: garden, seashore, etc.. Are you starting to see a trend here? The possibilities are endless.
This book sits on my nightstand. I thumb through it every few days or so for ideas. I’ll soon be making my own candles, and you better believe I’ll be using lots of the ideas I found in this book to display them.
This book proves you don’t need a ton of money to do some really awesome decorating. You just need some imagination! BUY IT NOW! It’s a great bargain and a lovely and well-made book. No cheesy paper – this is quality stuff with lots of great pictures and captions. You won’t be disappointed. This would make a GREAT gift book – pair it up with a couple of candles and some ribbon for a really classy gift.
