This review is from: Decorating With Paint & Wallcovering (Black & Decker Home Improvement Library titles) (Paperback)

Though it is better than most, I found this to be one of those books that is somewhat useful once, then you never open it again. It tries to do too much and doesn't do anything particularly well. I was looking for more of a detailed how-to type book with nuts-and-bolts tips. There is some of that, but the pictures only convey so much and there's not enough detail or explanation in the text. The book spends a lot of time covering colors and decorating, but specialty decorating books and magazines are probably better for that purpose. I suppose it's worth a loan from the library.
