I hope Kyle writes a library of decorating books! I have been collecting decorating books for more years than I want to admit--and this is definitely one of my favorites.

I hope this is the beginning of a library of your books!. "Fabulous Book!!!" according to Porkchop. This book is great! I love the decorating ideas and the beautiful pictures. I also really like that the book tells you the best places to buy the items that are featured in it. And the "how to" sections contain easy to follow steps for copying some of the decorating ideas. I can't wait to try the chalk board decal on my fridge. I never even knew that chalk board decals existed! What a fun idea!. Alexandra Avila said LOVE!. Boyfriend finally moved into his first place. I've been pretty helpful, but there was some really great insight on how to deal with realtors and what to look for during appointments. We live in NYC so being nifty and creative with limited space and budget is important and this book inspired a lot of ideas to make his place really feel like home. Directions and photography were easy to follow. This book makes a great housewarming gift or as inspiration for your own space.
