Decorate: 1,000 Design Ideas For Every Room In Your Home (2011) - Plot & Excerpts
TCL Call Number: 747 Becker HDiana's rating: 5 starsGive yourself an escape for an hour (or more) and sit down with this book and your favorite beverage. It's a feast for the eyes, and even if you're not trying to decorate anything right now, perhaps it will change the way you think about your spaces, and will inspire you down the road. Lots of unique and personal spaces where stylish people really live. Better than average. Lots of good ideas and inspiration, a reasonable range of styles. The book did not seem too full of itself, or make ridiculous claims about how some 2k objet d'art is a 'must have' (the number of shelter mags and books that do this is astounding to me). Other things I liked: Lots of good ideas on how to get started, achievable ideas that don't have to cost a small fortune, and it doesn't try to claim any decorating 'rules' or obnoxious do/don't lists (which is refreshing). Yes, there were some pictures that had items that cost more than a year's rent in this book, but I did think the ideas it put forth would be doable in the not-crazy-overthetop price range.

I'm a sucker for pretty pictures. But I didn't learn anything new or different from the blog.
