Review

Decorate a home not in one fell swoop, but in stages, taking one room at a time and taking budgets into consideration. Decorator Moss' master plan calls for beginning with the basics and growing a room from there on: this decorator's workbook includes a scheme board and color schemes and swatches. An excellent approach to beginner's basics. -- Midwest Book Review

5.0 out of 5 stars Very helpful, December 29, 2006
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Creating a Room: A Designer's Guide to Decorating Your Home in Stages (Hardcover)
I thought the "stages" shown in this book were very helpful. True, I don't own the type of home shown but one can easily interpret the ideas to suit a more modest home and budget. I purchased this book after her newest book, "A Winter House" (so very scrumptous!}.

1.0 out of 5 stars Hopelessly useless, May 26, 2011
This review is from: Creating a Room: A Designer's Guide to Decorating Your Home in Stages (Hardcover)
I love books about decorating but I found this one useless. To begin with, drawings,especially these, are of little value in my opinion. Pictures are much more effective. But, the big question I have is: Who even wants to live in the oh-so-precious "finished" rooms? The audience for this book is limited to say the least. I thought the premise was promising but this book never delivered. It looks like a classroom project for a decorating class held in a mall someplace. Ugh!
