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? ![]()

I enjoy looking at ideas and then revamping them to fit my style and looks for my home. There is so many ideas out there and to have this book would be added bonus to my book collection and idea collection : ))) Thanks : ))
I love to browse through decorating books for inspiration.
Country Living remains one of the most practical magazines that I love–its recipes, gardening, home decor, etc., are creative and budget-friendly. Thanks, Rhoda, for bringing attention to this treasury of ideas. Put me on the list as a hopeful for winning!
I would love that cute little book! I am always looking for ways to update my home but specifically look for ways to use what I already own in a new way. Can’t wait to check this book out! Thanks for the chance to possibly win one!
Since I’m such a visual person, I’ve always loved decorating books and I enjoy looking at them over and over. Sadly though, with the vast amount of decorating inspiration available to us on the internet now, I find I don’t purchase many decorating books or magazines anymore. I’d love the opportunity to win this one!
my daughter is buying a house and now she gets to do things her way. this would be a fun book for her.
Having printed inspiration in your hands is a wonderful tool when looking for ideas! And this little book sounds like the perfect size to take with you to shop as well!
This book looks like what I need – we moved into a new house last July and I have yet to hang anything on the walls! 🙁
What wonderful inspiration to create that special haven in my home-love- love- love!!!
Love, love, love decorating books. I always say I get my best ideas from others. 😉 It looks like this book would keep the great ideas coming for awhile
I enjoy decorating books (or magazines) for several reasons. I find them very relaxing in general; however, I’m always looking for a complete room idea or furniture arrangement. Sometimes I’m excited to just pull a one idea out of a complete room. If I already have that particular item and can copy that idea it’s all the more exciting. I think we “nesters” are always excited to find new ideas.
Love decorating books, this looks like a great book!
Country Living is my all time favorite home magazine. I have used it for many ideas for inside my home and outside. I would love to have this since I’m in the process of remodeling two bathrooms and a kitchen.
I’m in a temporary house right now and many of my decorating books are packed. It would be great to have a new book to look at while I plan my next move.
Love looking through decorating books. This little one looks like it has lots of inspirational ideas in it. I like to see ideas then tweak them to fit my home. Theres nothing like a good deco book.
Decorating books are so fun! This one looks like it has many beautiful pictures and inspirational ideas. I would love to a have a copy! Keeping my fingers crossed!
First off, they are just so pretty to look at. I love to see what my home could be and I am working towards making it our own by borrowing ideas I get from books, magazines and of course—blogs…
Happy Wednesday, Rhoda! Thanks for the chance to win this awesome little book. Country Living is my favorite magazine, so lots of their great ideas packed into this little gem would be an excellent read! I love all the inspiration I get from design/decor books. You can get so many creative ideas that inspire you to do something similar – or even just new – in your own home. Hope this little guy comes home with me!
