From Booklist

This very practical sourcebook is devoted entirely to black-and-white motifs that can be hand-colored or used as-is to enliven walls, furniture, and other home decor items. An introductory segment provides the most basic instruction on decoupage, lists necessary tools and materials, and explains the use of a photocopier to reduce or enlarge selected images. Directions for eight specific projects are offered, including directions for transforming a simple picture frame and decorating a plain wooden screen employed as a room divider. A useful manual of designs for craft collections. Alice Joyce
