<p>House Beautiful 500 Makeovers, hardback published by Hearst Books in the USA. Available in the UK, ISBN 978-1-58816-694-4, price 14.99 from www.thegmcgroup.com</p>
<p>Subtitled &#8216;Great Ideas and Quick Changes&#8217; this vibrant book will turn your house into a beautiful home. Find ideas for colour, furnishings, positioning and that magic touch to bring it all together. You could get room envy staring at the beautiful photographs. </p>
<p>This book is separated into seven chapters comprising Balance, Simplicity, Impact, Function Details, Colour and Quick Fixes. You should be able to gleam ideas to use in your own home and to reinvent your rooms for a fresh look. The book shows that sometimes all you have to do is alter the details. 500 ideas are represented on 480 pages in landscape format. <br />
I do think that this would have been better with before and after pictures as the book does not actually show you how to create the look nor does it give suppliers or resources. However if you have the ability to look and create, or simply wish to dream, this will satisfy your inner yearnings.</p>
