From Library Journal:
Gilliatt offers an inspiring guide to decorating techniques. Emphasizing project assessment, budgeting, and preparing a master plan, she analyzes the process of decorating a kitchen, living room, bedroom, and one-room studio through the addition of architectural character, color, furnishings, and accessories. Dozens of decorating techniquesincluding lighting, sanding floors, laying ceramic tile, painting a mural, and making various window treatmentsare detailed. While readers may need to refer elsewhere for more specific directions, the information here allows do-it-yourselfers to decide whether the project is within their capabilities. Public libraries serving patrons with insatiable appetites for decorating guides will want to consider. Judith Yankielun Lind, Roseland Free P.L., N.J.
