Description
DECORATING FURNITURE
Decorating Furniture shows how humble, everyday household items such as tired old tables, down-at-heel desks and unfashionable filing cabinets, can take on a new lease of life through the imaginative use of paint and varnish and a minimum amount of equipment.
Jo-an Jenkins explains how the simple skills needed to decorate furniture with wit and charm can be learned quickly and easily. As will be seen from the pages of this book, there is an almost endless variety of enchanting decorative techniques which can be created by even the least skilled and nimble-fingered. Methods described include: sponging, spattering, marbling, ragging and rolling, découpage and hand painting.
All the ideas are practical, cheap, and, above all, exciting. No matter what kind of home you have, traditional, modern, or wild fantasy, you will find inspiration, enjoyment, and satisfaction in creating decorated and decorative pieces for every room in your home.
