Customer Reviews

Amazing creativity!

I loved this book. The ideas were amazing -- I never thought I'd find so many creative ideas that I would be excited to try. The format is very thorough and easy to follow with great photography, so that even I feel I can actually do it despite not being very handy. And Jonathan's dry wit throughout makes the book a fun read. I'm sure I'll be referring back to this book many times over the years.

Almost as fun to read as it is to use.

A great book. If you're looking to add some flair to your home, this is the book for you. Everything is broken down into simple steps. It really changes the way you think about the home you live in. I mean, it's your house, you should personalize it and really make it yours.

Creative Ideas for Everyone

I thought this book had some really great ideas that were easy enough for anyone to do. With this book, no one has an excuse to live in a boring environment. This book not only had good ideas but it also inspired my own ideas of different wall treatments. It's a great book of clever ideas that does what a good decorating book should do. It inspires creativity and individualism.

Wow, indeed!

I am not a designer or have even ever dabbled in it. But Jonathan's wall treatments are so creative and so easy, it has inspired me to redo the walls in my office. After centuries of two choices, wallpaper or paint, it's such a breath of fresh air to have these amazing new ideas. Plus, Jonathan is a fantastic and funny writer, so the projects are not only easy to understand, but enormously entertaining to read about. Top it all off with the gorgeous photography and you have a book that wows on every level. Highly recommended.

WALLS THAT WOW

"WALLS THAT WOW by Jonathan Fong is a wonderful book. The pictures are stunning. Mr. Fong's directions are clear and easy to follow. His Helpful Hints are just what they say: helpful; and it's amazing that he included methods for cleaning the walls. The little personal comments every now and then make me feel that I know him. Thanks for this fine book. Barbara Harmon"
