Straight Talk on Decorating
Interior design maven Lynette Jennings possesses a rare talent: she's a professional who understands how an ability that comes naturally to her can be a source of paralyzing indecision for so many others. In Straight Talk on Decorating, Jennings helps readers build their decorating confidence and motivation, and provides strategies for coping with what she calls "the miseries of choice. " "No matter what you do, " she cautions, "everyone you know, ever will know, or are related to by blood or marriage will at one time or another find their way into your deepest color, furniture and window treatment desires and pass judgment. And you'll have to live with your choices for years! " The author and TV host helps sufferers of "design-lovers angst" with the aid of gorgeous photographs and strategies for identifying a style that will work for individual readers and their lifestyles. Jennings's own homes in Toronto and Atlanta provide the backdrop for her design concepts. The designer is neither fussy nor rule-bound: in her three-story Victorian, for example, the living room houses the pool table. Jennings also offers suggestions for creating the illusion of more space, getting rid of clutter, and working with a geographic region's unique natural palette of colours. Those with interior-design phobias will delight in her "straight talk" approach to decorating. --Carolyn Leitch Author(s): Lynette Jennings. Binding Paperback. Publisher(s): Meredith Books.
