 RAVE REVIEW! December 16, 2009

A friend of mine went to the Speed Decorating event in Minneapolis recently, and was very impressed. So I went to Amazon to check the book out, ordered it, and I, too, now give it a rave review! Beautiful photos, colors, layout, and the personal comments by Jill Vegas were a plus. I am not in the market for most decorating books now, and pretty content with our home but her book was a gift of fresh ideas without the sense that everything we have is wrong. I am looking at things in our home with a new eye. It will be with pride that we leave it on our "coffee table".

Recently I heard about the book, Speed Decorating, and that its' author, Jill Vegas, was going to be at a DWR store a few blocks from my home. Unfortunately I was unable to attend so I purchased the book through Amazon. I got into the book immediately since I have been focused on giving my loft a facelift for the past few years and have been paralyzed. The book is the perfect remedy for anyone who needs the inspiration and confidence to go with their instincts and make those quick-fix changes to their home. By using Jill's advice for "dining room musts", I replaced a light fixture and dining room chairs and now have a room that reflects my personality and makes me happy to be in! I highly recommend this book.
Fun and easy - the book is great December 17, 2009

Speed Decorating is perfect for someone like me, who isn't in the design industry, yet frequently feels frustrated by rooms in my home that seem to be in dire need of a facelift. Sure, we all know to "declutter," but, how to do that and make the space attractive, inspiring or feel like a desirable and uplifting representation of who we are is a whole different story. I received my book as a gift, and I can honestly say I found it easy to look at and read it long enough to know, "Ok, I can do this!" Within one week, I came up with economical solutions to three areas in my home that bugged me. The book is fun, approachable, well-organized and provides simple marching orders to have fun, get inspired, be confident and take it a step at a time. Additionally, this book debunked the myth that I have to wait for a decorating change I'd love until I can afford an expensive overhaul or purchase. So, for me, I adore the book! ...and, I'm just a reader...

I bought this book for a friend who is selling her condo and needed some help sprucing the place up for her open house. I had a chance to flip through it with her and we both got very inspired by it. The tips here and the photos suggest clean, calm spaces. Vegas makes the decorating process seem less daunting. Highly recommend.
