Fantastic Book,
By Raps "Soaper" (Australia) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Smart Approach to Kids' Rooms, 3rd edition (Home Decorating) (Paperback)
I purchased about a dozen decorating books and this was by far the best out of the look. I was so happy that I sat there for hours looking at all the beautiful pictures. If you like bright and colourful modern ideas then this is for you. It has bedrooms, bathrooms & storage ideas that leave you wanting more. I love it and will certainly look out to see if the author brings out any more books like this. It is an absolute must!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
