Some things come in small packages and that is the case with a brand new book!
Country Living Little Book of Big Decorating Ideas
I love getting the chance to review these décor books up close and personal and this one is so tiny and cute. A little square book packed with decorating ideas! What fun.
The tag line is 287 clever tips, tricks and solutions and they are right. Each page is numbered with a great idea for decorating, from quirky, to found objects and recyling, there’s an idea for every design enthusiast.
It’s tiny and square, about 6” square. From the editors of Country Living, one of our fave magazines, you’ll find tips on hundreds of ideas to tap into your home’s full potential.
Pages 68 and 69: Bathroom ideas and fireplace plans.
Pages 99 and 100: Birdcages and quirky clothes pins.
Pages 117 and 118: Painted stairs and upholstery ideas.
Pages 216 and 217: Color ideas for the living room and bedroom.
Pages 240 and 241: Framed art and gallery walls.
And the outdoor areas even got in the book, Pages 230 and 231: Outdoor planting and fence ideas.
It really is packed with some great pics and you’ll enjoy thumbing through this one. I love adding great décor books to my growing collection for those times that I just want to unplug and sit on the porch with a pretty book in hand. I don’t always want to be in front of my computer, do you? ![]()

My daughter needs this ! This would be a great housewarming gift for her first home.
You can always find inspiration in decorating books!
I love getting inspiration for my home from good design books. It gives me a thrill to look at them over and over again.
There is nothing like enjoying a cup of tea and going through a decorating book when the house is totally quiet. Love all the inspiration and ideas! I subscribe to Country Living and own a few of their wonderful books.
I really love to pour over a good book, especially when it’s a decorating book. This one looks adorable as well as being filled with valuable, exciting info. I’d love to own it!
I find decor books so relaxing to read and look through. It lets you dream of possibilities!
Great inspiration to use what we already have in a different way. Country Living magazine has been a favorite of mine for years! I’ve really enjoyed reading your blog about your renovation here in Atlanta. Love the photos of your parents…your a lucky girl!
I love the inspiration that decor books provide. I live in rural Ohio and blessed to have a ton of shops and auctions to look for treasures. Or as my family says junkin’ 🙂
Rhoda, I never met a Decorating Book that I did not like!:) Just finished reading Inside Designer’s Homes. I would love to the Little Big Book to my collection.
very cool! I *don’t* always love decorating books–it seems so many are focused on the trendy minimalist or contemporary looks that don’t appeal to me. Give me old and collected, and you’ve got me. That’s why I gravitate toward Country Living!
Oh how I love pretty books…..so inspirational. Thanks for the opportunity! 🙂
I love to thumb through my decorating books for fresh ideas; Country Living’s newest book looks enticing!
Loads of inspiration!!
I’ve always loved reading Country Living magazine and have for years and years. There is nothing better than sitting down with a good decorating book when you get tired of your own ideas. Plus I love to share them with my Mother and daughter.
I’d love to unplug and sit on MY tiny porch and read this book!
With over 40 years of accumulated “stuff” I never get tired of changing it up and reading décor books and décor blogs inspire me to keep it fresh! Thanks for the chance to win!
Thank you for the chance to grab CL’s book! I am a huge fan of CL style – I’m a little bit country, and a lot of city, and their style files are right up my alley! Having their book would sure be easier than past methods of tear sheets and, now, Pinterest pins!

Another great giveaway! I love decor books because they combine my two loves: books and decorating! I love collecting books, especially design books with such great ideas and pretty pictures! This book looks like I need to add it to my collection! Thanks for a chance at winning!
I love Country Living and all of their decorating ideas! I’d treasure this little book for sure!
I love to get ideas of what is popular and selling. I would use the book to get more ideas on things to buy and sell in my repurposing business venture. I would also get ideas for things for my own home.
