A beautiful book written for understanding.I have the privilege of having a personalized signed copy by Alexandra Stoddard.I'd made her acquaintance at a Tea Conference where I was a Vendor for my Tea business.I purchased one of her other books at that time_"Tea Celebrations".
Not only are her books informative but visually beautiful as well.

this was helpful. the quotes throughout the book were inspiring. i realized i need to go though my apartment (and life more like it) with a punch list, so i can notice items that need improvement. a different way to improve and decorate a room.
I mostly just skimmed through this book. I was pleased with the inexpensive or free decorating suggestions. Lately I have come across a few people who have referred to Stoddard in their writings. I will definitely search out more books (at the library) written by this author.
Love reading this book! Perfect for someone who loves to decorate!
I couldn't get through the first chapter. Dull!
I learned about the author from a book by Faye Morrow Bell (on Scrapbooking). Stoddard, who is an interior designer, goes into basic design principles in this book as well as gives general tips on how to live a more beauty filled life.
Filled with quotes and general tips I found more in the margins with every read. Not really a decorating book and yet not really a motivational book. A combination of thoughts combined on a common theme would be more accurate.

love this book. i've been meaning to flip through it again. a decorating book - not one filled w/ pictures of rooms, but with words and ideas that can bring you to your own perfect room.
I didn't get to finish this book. She has nice common sense ideas, which I enjoyed.
lots of hints to create a beautiful life around u.
