Negative Positive
Title: Gorgeous, rich and inspiring
Review: My sister, an avid collector with the incredible gift of using great taste to create a homey atmosphere, recommended this book and I can see why. The author's love of "home" permeates every stunning page. Those wanting a "how-to" book should look elsewhere; this is the book for "why-you-should". It teaches one of the biggest lessons one must learn when creating a home, that of patience.Of course, like any "affair", the object of affection will barely be tolerated by some. If you don't understand why you wax the legs of a chair with a hole in the arm, don't buy this book. If it's strange to you that someone is satisfied with a color that fits the room rather than matching the Pottery Barn palette, you'll be happier with a few copies of this month's decorating magazines. Otherwise, invite the dogs to curl up next to you while you slowly turn the pages, luxuriating in the lovely fun, at least vicariously, of knowing how you want to live and having the means to do it.
