From School Library Journal
Here, Engelbreit shares the philosophy she follows in life: "It's your house and it should be filled with the things and the colors that make you feel good." Rather than writing a step-by-step decorating book following the basic rules, the author offers a multitude of creative ideas using color illustrations with minimal text. This fun, whimsical book covers many different areas of the house-kitchens, fireplaces, children's rooms, windows, walls and pictures, and more. Recommended as an accessory to basic home decorating collections.Barbara Bartos, St. Croix Central, Roberts, Wis.Copyright 1994 Reed Business Information, Inc.
