1. Request your local library to buy this book, and check it out.



2. I wanted a book with lot's of color pictures that showed different deck styles and accents so I could design my own custom deck. If your looking for something for design ideas or to show to your contractor, this is the book for you. I also picked up "A Portfolio of Deck Ideas" to go with it.

   If you're after a "how to" book, this isn't it.

1. Whether you are a pro or a do-it-yourselfer, this book is an absolute must have for everything that has to do with plumbing. It takes you from design to implementation seemlessly and in plain english. Get yourself a copy and you'll never be in the dark about the how's and why's of all aspects of plumbing. Hope you enjoy as much as I did...

5 comments about Kids' Rooms: A Hands-On Decorating Guide.

1. I was hoping to receive a book full of creative ideas for my daughter's room. What I ended up with was a book full of blah rooms. It just didn't seem like a book that is meant to give ideas by showing actual rooms. The pictures that were shown were only of one side of the room. There is A LOT of writing--not something I look for in a decorating book! There were very few decorative painting techniques or theme rooms. Most of the pictures are of frilly, wallpapered, rooms with canopy beds. Many of the pictures featured rooms with built-ins (bookcases, or beds, or window seats). The majority of bedrooms I have ever seen do not have any of these items. The author seems to go on tangents for much of the book--sections such as "designing family spaces" where they tell you how to layout a kitchen, or "Outdoor play areas" where they tell you about swing sets...



2. This book has nice color in rooms and will give you some good ideas whether you use paint or wallpaper.



3. Kids' Rooms: A Hands-On Decorating Guide by interior design expert Anna Kasabian is a very special and "user friendly" how-to guide for creating wonderful rooms crafted especially to meet the needs of children. Filled from cover to cover with a wealth of tips, tricks, techniques, and enhanced with full-color photographs of delightful, inspirational, and friendly room designs and colors for young people, Kids' Rooms provides practical inspirations for home owners and apartment dwellers, from creating safe and fun play areas for children of all ages, to soothing bedrooms for boys or girls, to babyproofing for an infant's safety. Kids' Rooms is an especially enjoyable and very highly recommended instructional guide for parents wanting to cherish ambiance, practicality, and originality in the decor of their children's rooms.



4. If you have children and are considering redecorating their rooms, you MUST HAVE this book! The details and suggestions are wonderful. There are even lots of helpful hints and project ideas which are practical and easy to do. I have rarely found so many unique ideas on decorating children'ts room all in one place. Especially appealing is the use of "real" children using their thoughts, ideas and actual rooms. A book well-worth referring to over and over again!



5. Anna Kasabian has done it again! Her latest book will appeal to all pocketbooks and tastes. She offers a unique array of ideas from accents to basic furnishings in a concise, easy to follow style.The book is a wealth of creativity, practical and beautiful, to boot. The photographs are wonderful. The book even contains drawings by children of their dream rooms, which are both poignant and illuminating. Grandparents, this is the book you've been looking for. You can't go wrong. Best of it's sort.
