Outdoor Decor: Decorative Projects for the Porch, Patio & Yard (Arts & Crafts for Home Decorating)
Customer Review: Absolutely perfect for me
I checked this book out of the library. I love it and am now buying it online for myself. (The library seems to want their copy back). The fountain on the cover is the project I'm working on now; but there are so many others I want to do that I want my own copy.
Customer Review: Was not what I wanted.
It is a beautiful book for Patio's and Porch's but was lacking in yard landscaping.

Home File: A Realistic Decorating Guide for Real Life
This unique home/apartment decor book focuses on home lifestyles for a young, professional audience that is both budget and style conscious. Location shots throughout Home File feature flea markets, farmers' markets, and other unconventional shopping resources, while colorful photography reveals how Christine Dimmick creates everything from easy gauze curtains to stained glass picture frames to metal wall borders.
Customer Review: Nice little book for project lovers.
I like making things, so I enjoyed getting my hands on this home projects book. Most of the things are for the budget concious, but that covers many people! Some of the projects could be adapted to decorating the classroom or for little hands. I particularly like the tissue paper tabletop, and her ideas for decorating lamps are very similar to some very expensive ones I have seen in pricey shops. The author does some interesting things with paint effects, wreaths, pots, napkin rings,mirrors, curtains, and candles. An okay addition to your decorating library.
Customer Review: What a wonderful book!
This book is fabulous!! The ideas are so great, and the directions so simple. While looking through the book I even added some of my own ideas, to make her ideas mine and yielded some great results. The best thing about this book is that everything can be made for a fraction of the cost of retail and you are guarenteed to suceed with her directions. Great book at a great price and almost every idea in the book is wonderful. Highlites of the book include the seashell lights and tea lights along with the curtains and no sew pillows. I wish I could personally thank ms Dimmick for making a book that lives up to its name!
