Beautiful color photos on nearly every page with chapters on Country Design; Collections; Preserving Food; Country Gardens; Country Christmas, Traveling, etc. With an appendix and index. Includes recipes, craft ideas, antique collectibles, flower and vegetable gardens, large to small gardens, picnics, camping, making wine, etc. Enjoy the beauty and relaxation of Country living with this book. A real treasure to enjoy.
Charming text and great photos for duplicating "Charming" Country details. Specific to an older home, there are also lots of great ideas for "using what you have" and for incorporating flea market and thrift shop finds into everyday, "Country-style" decor. Barbara Rogers encompasses a whole industry and uses a combination of paint, textures, antique and "vintage" furnishings, great craft projects to assist the "nature" of decor, along with the essentials of great design-the "details" of odds and ends and decorator products that can be purchased new, used, or created from your own hands.
Good book if you are searching for "Country-style" or "Cottage-style" decor. LIke an expended version of the magazine "Country-Life", without the ads!
