{Giveaway is now Closed}
Ilove it when a publisher contacts me about doing a review on a decorating book. I was recently given the opportunity to receive a copy of the book, Speed Decorating, by pro-stager Jill Vegas and the chance to give away a copy to one of my readers.
So, of course I said a BIG FAT….YES!
It’s full of glossy color pics that I think you’ll really enjoy and Jill focuses on a Speed Decorating Questionnaire evualating the following questions:
- What are the primary functions of the space?
- How does the room look?
- Is everything working?
- Does the room feel comfy and inviting:
She suggests getting started by answering these questions and gives a lot of practical tips for arriving at a room of your dreams. I think the book is concise with some well thought out advice that all decorators could take advantage of, even if you don’t have natural skills and talents in this area.
Jill covers all of the following areas in detail with lots of pics:
Entry
Living Room
Kitchen
Dining Room
Bedroom
Bath
Curb Appeal
So, if you’d live to win a copy of this book, just leave a comment here and tell us which room you’d focus on if you were going to do some speed decorating?
Giveaway ends on Friday evening at 6 pm Central time.
what a great book! hmmm I think probably my girls bedrooms are the rooms I need help with. I’ve been spending too much time on the other rooms and not enough on theirs!

i’d work on my bedroom. it’s the only room in my house where i’ve focused very little attention.
My living room – at the top of a long list!
My living room is in some serious need of help. Smallish room, big TV, two doorways, two windows, did I say big TV?
I would go with the bathroom, such a small area. I need some ideas!
My family room needs help!
My curb appeal is in serious need of some help.
It is warming up here in Michigan so I’m ready to get out there and improve the look.
Speed decorating would be applied to my bedroom. Mine is tired and boring. Need help with color and accessories.
Oh my word, it’d be my living room. Help help help.
Living room
I would use it on my great room!!
I would probably concentrate on the kitchen/hearth room/breakfast room area, because that is what I am working on, right now.
I’d love to add this book to my collection, Rhoda.
I would focus on my dining room….no my bedroom because I just got new furniture…. no, my living room because that is where we spend the most time… no… I don’t know where I would focus but I would focus, I promise!!
This sounds just like what I need! I would start in my living room.
Thanks,
Beth
The livingroom. It is an odd shape and I have big furniture. I need help!
I need help with my whole house as it is a palette of neutrals but I would focus on my living room first. I would so love to pop it up with color and functional. Thanks for the chance to enter!
What a great giveaway!! I would like to work on my entryway/porch area for curb appeal for the spring.
I could use help with my living room. I just had a baby and I could also use help with the nursery. We have high ceilings so it dwars the baby furniture even more. I could use a book like this!
I would focus on my living room. We just got our new couch. That along with a small desk and TV cabinet are the only things in the room. I would like to be able to make it warm and homey, but still keep it bright. I don’t know how to do that.
The master bathroom!!! Mine is plain white with nothing on the walls or on the tub surround.
