If you're like me and home-decorating-impaired, this is a great resource to get you started to transform your home into a more comfortable, enjoyable place to live. When your budget is always an issue, home decorating is usually one of the last things on your list of things to "get to" when you have the money. With this book you will find hundreds of easy, inexpensive home decorating ideas (all under $20!).

From this book you will learn:

  • Paint finishes that can transform everyday objects for pennies
  • How to use clever finds in your own home to add personality
  • How to use free and recycled items to make one of a kind accessories for your home
  • How to create a fantasy kids' room on a budget
  • Recipes for ingenious designer "cheats"

Chapters of the book cover Organizing for Creativity, Redesigning Your Rooms, Creative Sources for Materials, Theme Ideas, Use What You Have, Exterior Decorating on a Budget, Walls and Floors, Accessories and Furniture, Kids' Rooms, Windows, Outdoor Rooms, Holiday Decorating, Faux and Decorative Painting, Web Resources, and more.

If you have a hard time coming up with decorating ideas, this book has a lot of great ideas to get you started. Chances are you already have things at home you can use to makeover a room as soon as you put the book down.

The author doesn't believe in rules when it comes to decorating, her goal is to give you some ideas to spark your imagination and help you create a space where your family enjoys spending time together.
