Customer Reviews

Fantastic Decorating Book
I loved this book, and any other books that Debbie Travis has on the market. Her ideas are fantastic, and she will get your creativity juices going to start other projects.

Disappointed
I was disappointed with this book and also with Debbie's Painted Kitchen book. Both are heavy on her commentary & light on how to do's. Plus I didn't think that many of the ideas were very original or creative. If you just want to read commentary that sounds very much like her on her HGTV show, these books are for you. For great ideas, save your money.

You are better off with a Home Depot book!
I usually like the TV program and after watching an episode where Debbie transforms an old door into a beautiful headboard I wanted to buy the book to follow up on the idea. However the book is more of a portfolio of Debbie's work. Sadly the project I'm interested on only takes one page, very brief directions amd doesn't show the before and after. The step by step instructions are very simple, you need to be knowledgeable of the matter to be able to do anything. I would hope from books of this sort more trick and tips of the trade.
