The Complete Book of Painting Techniques for the Home

Do yourself a favor and READ THIS! It could save u a lot of time, worry, and money if u cannot attend the pricey classes!

Well illustrated and full of ideas

Beautifully illustrated and photographed. Directions are complete and easy to follow. Everything you can do to a wall is probably covered here. There are entire sections on faux wood techniques as well as malachite, lapis, marble, tortoise shell, and granite. Sections on stenciling, gilding, glazing, and antiquing are included. For some reason, I loved reading and looking through this book. Unfortunately, and this is probably my fault, I am not inclined to try any of this. It looks like way too much work and too much time for the result. This could be because there are just so many faux wall & surface treatments being shown in interiors I may just be tired of the whole thing. But, if you're interested and want to know how to get started, what tools you'll need, and what the final results will look like, this book covers it well.

Great book and fast delivery

Great.

Was hoping for something I had not seen before, but this was not it. Already have a book with basically same techniques described.

good reference

Very useful and a wonderful book!
