    THE GIRL DON’T HAVE A CLUE WHEN IT COMES TO DECORATING. SHE JUMPS TO PERSONAL OPINIONS ON ONE SUBJECT THEN SAYS, JUST USE WHAT YOU HAVE. WE COULD DO THAT WITHOUT HER HELP. AS FAR AS SHE IS CONCERNED EVERYTHING IS A DUST COLLECTOR. IT ALL ADDS UP TO, A REAL NICE CLASSIC DECORATING STYLE IS JUST TO MUCH TROUBLE. DESTINY

    This book was a huge dissapointment. Every single layout was the same. Arrange your sofa and loveseat facing each other, throw a crappy plant against the wall.

    The pictures were dated looking and in black and white.

    There is nothing this book has to offer that you cannot glean from watching 1 evening of HGTV.

    Get rid of stereo equipment, NEVER use refrigerator magnets! Come on.. a great designer will tell you that you can improve the look and feel of your home without sacrificing your belongings! Lauri Ward is not a great designer! I am an interior designer and more importantly, a mother. Your refrigerator looks beautiful with your child’s paintings on it. Hung with, yes.. magnets! If you enjoy listening to music, why would you get ride of your speakers because some half-wit “professional designer” tells you it looks bad? Your home is still your home. While you want it to be warm and inviting, you still want it to be functional for the way you live. This can be done without spending a fortune! Just look for what attracts YOU. Your style, your favorite things. No one wants to live in a home that is always ready for a magazine cover. You want to live in a home that reflects who you are and that makes your family and guests feel at home. Save your money; don’t buy this book!

    This book was a big disappointment. I learned nothing from it, it has boring black and white photos, and Ms. Ward has too many “rules”. If you want a boring room, follow the advice in this book.

    Lauri tells you to NOT use doilies. Excuse me, Lauri, but some of us would like to protect the furniture on which the doilie lies. Besides, how on earth does doilies add to clutter? They are there to protect to furniture, in alot of cases.
