Great under the cover ideas... September 21, 2007 Kit Kat's Korner (Verona, PA United States) 18 out of 19 found this review helpful
This little treasure will have you looking at cast off items with a more resouceful eye. Many of these items would not get a second glance but the author has found interesting ways to repurpose flea market or discarded items. The project on the front cover is an example of a creative way to use those small side boards once part of old dining room sets. I am a fan of stripes, so the small dressers done in wide stripes has great appeal as well as a playful side. The techniques suggested can be applied to a variety of objects not just the ones illustrated in the book. I can't wait to go out this week end and rescue some unloved objects and give them a new lease on life. Undoubtedly this book is a great find...one of the best for sparking new ideas for those low on cash but high on imagination.

Just what I was hoping for...creative ways to re-use cast-offs, easy-to follow directions and pretty photography. Lots of inspiration here!
Great idea book. January 22, 2009 E. McDowell (Paris, Texas) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
This is a great book to get ideas and even take them futher with other pieces. I love Shabby Chic. So if you do this is a good one to have.
I keep going back to the book! October 25, 2009 J. Shore (Rolla, MO USA) This book always gets pulled out when I am looking for an idea. It inspires me to look well beyond the "usual and customary" use of a piece of furniture to the possibilities! Great use of color and demonstrated integration into a lovely setting. I keep looking for more books like this one. If you love to re-purpose this is the book for you.
