This decorating books leans heavily towards the English country home and if you like that decorating style, then this book is for you. The photos are lovely. There's the stag's head over the fireplace, the china dogs on the mantel and paintings of race horses.

Although I found the reading a bit tedious, the section on home libraries and offices were appealing. I also liked one tip (instructions for converting a worn oriental rug into a floor pillow).

The book gives advice on choosing colors, lighting and window treatments. It's arranged by rooms (living room, entry hall, home office, etc.).

A book full of ideas useful for new or existing homes.
We had the good fortune to have had this publication out on loan from our local library and considered the ideas good enough for us to invest in our own copy.
The copy we recieved is in excellent condition as described and the service from the supplier was perfect. We would buy from this supplier again.
