My favourite for weekend projects or more

This really is one of my favourite books for helping me do new projects. It's just great, as it covers all kind of effects that are good not only for walls but anything you can think of. It helps you plan, prepare, execute and then admire your achievement. With easy to follow instructions for stenciling, wood work or what ever you want (you'll find it in here). It teaches you what products are used for what, how to achieve...
