This is the first entry in an all-new product line that will eventually number a dozen titles or more. The series will focus on ideas and inspiration, but unlike low-end books on home style, this exciting new line of books will feature a more sophisticated look and philosophy to match changing reader demographics, and will also include a large selection of easy-to-accomplish how-to projects. This book series welcomes in the Martha Stewart crowd, but it gives them something Martha simply will never understand-practicality. The books will be filled with ingeniously simple decorating ideas and projects-projects that are stylish, functional, and most of all practical.
Unlike other ideas books, which tend to be focused on individual rooms, the titles in the series show how to apply the most current, exciting style trends to any and all living spaces. In the Garden Style book, for example, readers will learn how to create this unique ambience outdoors and indoors, in home offices and home theaters, in basement recreation rooms and attic loft bedrooms. Other books of ideas are big with concepts, but they don't show you how to achieve any of their wonderful ideas. In startling contrast to the norm, these books will not only feature hundreds of great ideas, they will also give readers complete directions for creating dozens of refreshingly easy projects, none requiring more than a few simple steps to accomplish.

In Garden Style, Jerri Farris shows you how to decorate your home using the magical shapes, colors, textures, scents, and traditions associated with gardens.
Jerri reveals how she first came to adopt garden style: "I planted my first perennial garden during a period of great personal difficulty. When shoots peeked out that next spring, I felt my spirit being reborn right along with my garden. When winter arrived, my heart was still in the garden, and I began to look for ways to bring that feeling into my house."
From the simple beginning, Jerri shows you how to create a home, garden style, demonstrating commonsense principles she has developed on her own or learned along the way from friends and others. The result is a comprehensive, informative book written with unusual warmth.
With the collaboration of designer and creative partner, Tim Himsel, Jerri Farris has created a book unique among titles on home decorating - a book that is equal parts personal and universal, heartwarming and practical, nostalgic and inspiring. Garden Style includes step-by-step directions for nearly two dozen of their favorite projects.
Ideas with Style (tm) books show the most current and exciting trends in home decorating. In addition to giving you hundreds of practical ideas, every book includes dozens of refreshingly easy decorative projects, each requiring just a few simple steps to create.
Garden style is the art of decorating your home with the themes, colors, textures, and patterns found in the broad world of the living garden.
Evoking the feel of a garden in your home helps create a relaxed atmosphere that balances and calms the hectic pace of modern life. Perhaps this is why garden style is one of the most popular and fastest growing of personal decorating trends.
On of the beauties of garden style is that it can be as highly structured as a formal garden or as wonderfully random as a country meadow. Garden style can also exist alongside other decorating schemes. Whether your home is decorated in modern eclectic or French colonial, you can almost certainly make creative use of plant and garden themes.
In this delightful book, author Jerri Farris and designer Tim Himsel show you how to understand, practice, and live in garden style. You'll see examples of how ordinary homeowners have brought these ideas to life. And you'll also learn how to create more than two dozen of Jerri's and Tim's favorite garden style projects - from a painted wall mural to an ingenious copper bed frame that incorporates floral motifs.
