Customer Reviews

LOVE THIS BOOK-BUT WORTH $100.+

I AGREE WITH ALL THE FIVE-STAR RATINGS BUT WHAT COULD POSSIBLY MAKE THIS BOOK WORTH $100.00 OR MORE. I SEE WHAT THE USED BOOKS SELL FOR AND I CAN'T IMAGINE ANYONE PAYING THAT KIND OF PRICE FOR THIS BOOK. GET REAL PEOPLE! SHEESH!

Lots of stuff

This is a wonderful book. I love the author's style - lots of stuff, collectibles and little vignettes everywhere. Beautiful quality photographs. This is one of my favorite decorating books - full of comfy yet beautiful rooms from Carolyn Westbrook's own home.

A wonderful book for anyone redecorating or renovating an older home or any home!

I read the reviews and purchased this book, and it quickly became one of my favorites. This book is full of wonderful ideas and is photographed room by room. This southern plantation was built in the mid 1800's and has an original historical photograph, as well as, a before and after shot in the magnificent entry hall...what a transformation. Not only was the interior fabulous, but it also has gorgeous photographs of the grounds, as well. Have recommended to friends who love it as much as I, but could make one a little pea-green with envy...Carolyn is living my life! Would like to know if anyone knows of an antique shop that looks like this fabulous home because I have never seen one and my girlfriends and I would love to go there!!! My advice, if you love decorating books this is a must have because every page is inspirational.

Beautiful Images!

This is a big, beautiful, classy, timeless decorating book and one of my very favorites. What a gorgeous gift this book would make for a dear friend. Take this book up to bed with you and settle yourself under comfy covers and with a warm soothing cup of tea. This delight will soothe your senses. Each photo is a masterpiece with beautiful details on every page. Every time I open this book I find something new and marvelous. If I could recommend one home decorating book, "Carolyn Westbrook Home" would be the one. Can't wait for her next venture!

Beautifully executed....artfull images!

Carolyn Westbrook Home. A beautifully executed example of how to create the most comfortable spaces for your home. Take her ideas and incorporate them into your own home or just get lost in the pages of the romantic and inspiring settings that she creates. As the producer of a "shelter" television show, I can tell you that this is a book written by one of the great "up and coming" designers of the southwest. Southern comfort at it's best!
