5.0 out of 5 stars Great Ideas, Plenty of Fresh Perspective, August 28, 2009

Home Decor is one of those rare design books that offers a broad look and fresh trends for all rooms of your home. It's obvious the author took great pains to select people with a variety of expertise to contribute and add richness to the content.

The photos are big and plentiful and the text offers practical advice for do-it-yourselfer's as well as people that might choose to use a designer. Ms. Kelly also has a section of how to interact with designer to make the experience better. I also checked out her website [...] where you can see further examples of her projects.

A must read for anyone looking to improve their nest!

This is no ordinary interior design book. It is brimming with outstanding visuals and is extremely well written. Anyone who reads this book will be inspired to make improvements in their home. As the author states, "Everyone deserves great design!" This book is a rare treat that the reader will use as a reference over and over. As one who taught interior design for years, I highly recommend this book.
