Lots of great tips - 




Have you ever struggled with combing fabrics or patterned wallpaper in your home? If you have, then this is the book for you. Learn to use classic stripes to create an elegant look or a bright simple floral print to create a lively retreat.
The book starts out focusing on contemporary and classic fabric patterns. I love the decorating tips scattered through the book like using tiny prints and in a small room and larger ones in a big room or garden. It then discusses combining patterns. Again there are lots of great tips here like using several floral prints to create a rich looking collage or using patterns that include the same colors.
The next section on quick-change fabrics is great. It shows you how easy it to change a room by adding, subtracting or changing the fabrics in it. You can transform from season to season just by changing the curtains, slipcover, bedding or pillow shams. This is great when you want something different, but don't want to spend a fortune.
A chapter on creating pattern with your collections follows. Here you learn how to use pictures, knick-knacks and art to personalize and add the final dimension to your home. I love the many display ideas here. The book wraps up with a glossary, resource directory that includes websites and information on contacting the designers. This is a great book of tips and ideas with something here for every style.
