K. Weiss "cottage style lover" (New York) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)

This review is from: New Cottage Style : Decorating Ideas for Casual, Comfortable Living (Better Homes and Gardens) (Paperback)

For those of you who love lush and beautiful photographs, this book will disappoint. The photos are faded, especially sunny rooms which look washed out. I would highly recommend Cottage Decorating by Sunset and Cottage Style by Mary Emmerling. Although the latter is from 1998, the photos are still fresh and bright.

This is such a terrific reference book. The photos are all just gorgeous - it was a treat to page through and peruse. Text is full of tidbits and hints - a must for any decorating afficianado. Today's country is simplified and elegant. Enjoy!
