Country Style: Four Distinctive Looks for Decorating a Country Home (American Country)

Perhaps the greatest appeal of country style is the broad range of interpretations that are possible. Understanding the essentials of the different styles however, is only the beginning. In every one of the twelve houses shown, the homeowners have personalized the decor, adapting ideas from the past and present to their own needs. Great pains were taken to retore both the exteriors and interiors to look as they would have when the buildings were originally erected. It is precisely because country decorating allows such personal involvement that it is so popular today. With that in mind the book includes directions for four projects for your home. By decorating with pieces that you have made yourself, you are assured of establishing a country look that is entirely your own.
