This review is from: The Ultimate Book of Faux Finishes (Leisure Arts #22569) (Paperback)
I actually was disappointed in this book - it is primarily about sponging techniques, and about 10 years behind the times.
Today's techniques are alot more sophisticated.
This book might serve someone just beginning, or a homeowner looking for something easy.
