This book is for people who like lots of color, and the shabby chic cottage type of look (painted furniture, painted hardwood floor, etc). I was hoping she would offer paint ideas for a wide array of decorating styles which she does not.
I Enjoy watching Debbie on Painted Houses and Facelift. She is not afraid of color and seems to be able to decorate in various styles.
Another great book from Debbie Travis. I followed the directions to the letter and have the most incredible floor.
This book is a great resource of wonderful ideas; very imaginative and helpful.
Some amazing decorative effects. The "leather" walls are unbelievable.
She has pictures of the finished product,but she doesn't show you step by step pictures of the process to get there.
I have been a fan of Debbie Travis for a while. Unlike some instructional books for faux finishes which are complicated and use items I will not be able to find in my small hometown, Debbie's instructions are easy and I can find everything at my local paint store.
I love this book! Not as much as Debbie Travis Painted House...
Okay - I read the "halloween review" as well. To expand on the comment made by a fellow reviewer: you don't have to use the same paint colors Debbie Travis uses (she has a "thing" for some pretty wild colors)!
I found no practical ideas in this book. It appears to me the author is trying to see how outrageous she can be.
This book is a great resource of wonderful ideas; very imaginative and helpful.
