It also includes a large selection of easy-to-accomplish how-to projects. This book series welcomes in the Martha Stewart crowd, but it gives them something Martha simply will never understand-practicality. In startling contrast to the norm, the books will not only feature hundreds of great ideas, they will also give readers complete directions for creating dozens of refreshingly easy projects, none requiring more than a few simple steps to accomplish.. In other instances, a few ingenious alterations can give an item new life in an entirely different role-rusted metal doorknobs turn into drapery rod finials, for example.

Love That Look Virginia Allain The authors go beyond just dragging home shabby chic pieces from the flea market. They include projects to expand the usefulness of odd pieces.

Another project transforms a mirror frame with fabric and crisscrossed ribbons to create a lovely bulletin board. They show how to line an old painted cupboard or armoire with fabric .

For me the decorating ideas have to have a function; it is not enough to just look nice and take up space. I hope the authors write a sequel with even more ideas!
