Customer Reviews

if you want to change your home AND your life, buy this book now!!!

This is a real testimony. I purchased this book and was immediately intrigued by some of the questions. One went something like this: "When someone comes to your home, what does your home tell them about you?" (I don't have the book, because I lent it to a good friend; Another friend ordered her own copy.) You see I lived in a perfectly lovely home for about 7 years but I was TOO busy to do anything with it. I was a full-time professional, single mother, etc. etc. But one day, I came across this book and just started doing the smallest of changes. For example, I just switched some pictures from the kitchen to my bedroom. Even that small change, started a change in the atmosphere of the whole house. Any way, baby step, by baby step, I changed my home so NOW when I open the door I have a home that is no longer a BLANK SLATE...It now looks like ME! I want to thank the beautiful author for inspiring an overworked single-mother on a modest budget to create the house of her dreams. And what was so surprising is that it did not take TONS of money. I did like she suggested and moved around pictures, pieces of furniture, covered worn arm chairs with a pretty scarf, lit some candles, bought a couple gallons of paint, etc. I purchased a couple of pieces of gently used furnitute from a thrift store. Changing your Home and your Life is SO doable even for those of you like me who dealing with numerous work reponsibilities and family committments all on a tight budget. But the rewards! One example: I turned my neglected living room into a "reading room" where I can spend a few special moments in the morning and late at night curled up on my couch surrounded by all my wonderful books! Thank you Moll for your inspiration and for really helping me to change my home and my life! You're the best! This book is highly recommended!

This book will change your outlook

Before reading this book, I was so hesitant about what do buy, or how to decorate. After reading the book, I had a different outlook on my home as well as my life. Through decorating I learned who I was, and what made me happy. Now my decor selections bring me much more happiness and comfort. I look forward to coming home every evening!

Motivating

Feeling tired of how my house looked, this book was just what I needed! Perfect if you are looking for simple changes or a complete room makeover. The effortless, yet dramatic, changes she suggests in her book were so easy to follow. The photos were a great visual; and motivated me to organize as well! Your home really can effect your mood and your life. This book helps to give each room a pick-me-up!

Design Made Simple

This book is terrific. It really lays out design ideas in a beautiful and engaging way, whether you are just rearranging a room, or completely redecorating it! The book is SO easy to follow. Beautiful design! I just love all the great, inspirational photos. It's such a simple concept. Who knew it could make this much difference?!? Thank you!

Inspired

A friend recommended this book to me. I needed this book. It has tons of creative ideas. But, more importantly, I feel inspired. I am a working mother of two and my home is not yet my inspiration. Yet, that is. What a great concept. What a beautiful book! My home life has certainly changed me, it is time that I changed it!
