Nothing new here
This is an ok Christmas decorating book, but I learned nothing new. Has some nice ideas, but certainly
not a wow-er.
Lovely photography but few details and some odd ideas
The best thing about this book is the photography, which is lovely. What is being photographed ranges from the mundane to the odd, and the ideas rarely said "Christmas!" to me. For instance, for the white decorating scheme the author suggests tying string around a white rock and putting it on the napkin in your placesetting. The author gives few details on how to achieve the looks she writes about. I was very disappointed.
Beautifully presented, but not very detailed
This is a very nicely presented book. It is a conveniently sized hardcover with attractive dust cover, and has excellent pictures. It can even be used as a coffee table book.With regard to the content, there are some very good ideas, but firstly, some of the items required are not easy to get, and secondly, the more complicated projects do not have enough detail in the instructions. I also found that some of the projects don't look that good if you take away the fancy settings and lighting effects used for the photographs. Not a bad book, but it's more for show than function
