I really liked the projects presented in this book. I plan to do several of them when I change my bedroom at the beginning of the year. Some of them seem a little difficult hence the 4 stars instead of 5. and some of them are a little confusing and don't really have clear enough instructions. overall a great book though.

This book just didn't contain projects that sparked my interest . This would be wonderful book for those who are interested in making soap, candles, pillows...

I'm mostly interested in the soap-making portion of this book. It has great projects and good instructions.

Soapmaking, candlemaking, creating & decorating with frames, pillows, and wreaths; and making special scrapbooks/memory books.

This is a good book. I was mostly interested in the soaps and candles parts, which it details and gives some good projects for, but it has some good and simple pillow projects as well.

A disappointing book. Not my kind of projects.
