Customer Reviews

Small book packed with pretty pictures & nice ideas

This book is part of a series that Mary Engelbreit issued a few years ago. The book series is comprised of these nifty little books filled with great ideas, depending on the topic. The photos in this particualar book are absolutely amazing, just as all of M.E.'s books have wondeful photos. Ideas are easy to follow. Very inspirational. PS: this book was written in 1999 but the information still holds true, ---even in 2007!

A wonderful addition to the Mary Engelbreit book collection.

This is a typical Mary Engelbreit book with lavish pictures and a "vintagey", comfortable look. Where some of her books are more for ideas than how-to's, this one is not. While you will most definitely find much inspiration in these pages, it also includes shopping lists and detailed instructions for recreating these looks in your home. There are many painting techniques described, including striping, sponging, glazing, and a few more!

MB at her best....

Great book with looks of interesing ideas and techniques. Sumptuous pictures which are a feast for your eyes. Lots of excellent ideas...well worth it! You'll enjoy.
