5.0 out of 5 stars
Great ideas, directs you to a professional window treatment,
By "brechtst" (Columbia, MD United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: More Creative Window Treatments: Complete step-by-step instructions with full-color photos for over 60 distinctive window treatments (Paperback)
This was one of three books I purchased on window treatments; I turn to this one for advice and direction. Step by step directions with pictures on such topics as installing hardware, including hanging a mounting board, to the basics of sewing. Great ideas for rod pocket curtains and custom shades. I used it to create two different window treatments, scarf swag and shoji-style screen. Each project tells you how to measure and materials required. Due to the great instructions, both treatments turned out very professional!!

Only if you can sew...,

This review is from: More Creative Window Treatments: Complete step-by-step instructions with full-color photos for over 60 distinctive window treatments (Paperback)
While this book does have a few pictures, they seem quite old. The one or two items I liked didn't have any instructions for. If you are not a sewer, than this book is not for you. I found the book very confusing - definitely written for the person with sewing background. Sorry.
