disappointing!

I was really looking for a book with more curtain ideas than this one. The book is great but it doesn't have what I was looking for. I enjoyed browsing the pages one evening, but have no plans to make anything out of the book (not something I plan to add to my library).

Pros
  • Good product for the price
Cons
  • flimsy

Good reference book

If you are looking for comprehensive sewing instructions for your home then this is the place for you. No photos, but many clear drawings. In addition to the introductory chapters, there are sections on window treatments, walls and ceilings, beds and linens, pillows, slipcovers and table linens. The emphasis is on technique rather than any particular style, so the book will be useful for years to come.

Pros
  • Best in its niche
Cons
  • will be added later

The information is great!

When I first opened my new copy of the Simplicity home decorating book I was very disappointed. I found missing words and links to non-existent illustrations! What bothers me the most are the dividing lines between the chapters. The table of contents contains chapter headings, not numbers. When the book is closed, the dividers only show the chapter numbers, not the titles. Dividers make using a book awkward when they should make it easier. Now that I've spent some time with the book, my opinion

Pros
  • Very Good Price
Cons
  • Exorbitant Piggy Bank
