Book Review: Great Advice and Interesting Stories
Summary: 5 Stars
Lauri Ward brings affordable decorating advice to her readers, once again, and this time via stories about 25 clients. Each person has an interesting tale to tell, such as the woman who survived the collapse of the twin towers on 9/11 and sought help creating a tranquil environment, to the family of a world-famous dancer who needed help making their too-large space comfortable.
Each home provides clear examples of everyday decorating challenges that most people are confronted by, but never know how to solve, and the author corrects each one. She offers practical solutions that anyone can apply to their own home and, at the same time, a very interesting read.
Summary of Home Therapy: Fast, Easy, Affordable Makeovers
The ultimate "before and after" decorating book that shows how real people found the solutions to their decorating problems using the space they have, the things they like, and the budget they can afford.The pioneer of home "redecorating," Lauri Ward has been the "home therapist" to thousands, through the services of her company, Use-What-You-Have(r), Inc., and her popular books. For more than two decades, her revolutionary approach to home decorating, which focuses on identifying and solving the ten most common decorating problems-using what you have-has earned her a large and loyal following. Now, Home Therapy takes readers inside the homes-and lives-of twenty-five of Lauri Ward's clients, to reveal a wide range of decorating challenges, and the solutions that she was able to offer.
From the couple with a new baby, to the Baby Boomers looking to downsize, to the twentysomethings making their first home together, to the newly self-employed trying to carve out home-office space, Home Therapy guides readers step-by-step through the diagnosis and remedy for each situation.
Illustrated with more than 150 full-color before-and-after photos, plus detailed floor plans, Home Therapy is an inspiring and practical book for anyone who wants to create a home that is comfortable, personal, stylish, and affordable.
