Great Home Space Planner

This is a great book for the do-it-yourselfer - very informative and the cutout templates for all the rooms in the house are very helpful and useful to see how the arrangement will work. I am a design student and love all books pertaining to design. I highly recommend this!

A must for anyone decorating their home!

When we purchased our first home we had a million things to purchase and plan out when it came to rooms. This workbook has nice large grid pages as well ad"budget sheets" to help you figure out how much you are spending on paint/accessories. This book went everywhere with me from getting carpet estimates to picking up gallons of paint. The book even has a few pages of pockets to hold inspiration pictures as well as plastic furniture pop outs in the back to use when planning. In terms of all the work books of this type I looked at I was most happy with this simply designed medium sized one.

great idea

if u just got a new home, or u are planning a move in the future this book is for you, it helps u decide how to organize and decorate every room, you cant go wrong with this one, great tips and ideas!!

nice

Pretty cool, wish it had a dry erase marker with it and less book. I mainly just wanted the stickers to map out models I do.
