4.0 out of 5 stars Specific Projects to Class Up Rooms in Your House, March 26, 2010

This review is from: Black & Decker The Complete Guide to DIY Projects for Luxurious Living: Adding Style & Elegancce with Showcase Features You Can Build (Black & Decker Complete Guide) (Paperback)
This book seems to be organized as a hybrid between an idea book and a project book. For each type of room discussed in the book, it presents you with a gallery of luxurious examples preceding a project "how to". The projects are specific with a material and tool list, a cut list for lumbar, an assembly diagram, and pictures showing each major step of the project. The projects are well defined and provide ample instruction to complete as described. I gave the book 4 stars because I would like to see more projects for each luxurious room highlighted in the book.
