How to Decorate : The Best of Martha Stewart Living

Summary: ...not necessarily expensive selections
Review: This does not necessarily feature a selection of expensive furnishings. On the Cover, for instance, the second vase from the left (catalog #837) and the fourth vase from the right (catalog #37) are period pieces ('20s to '30s) by the Zanesville Stoneware Company pottery. They can sometimes be found at flea markets for $30 to $80. Unlike Martha though, you won't have to favor celadon green.

Summary: A good place to start
Review: This was Martha's first work, and explores places and settings. The rustic bench in the middle of the trees is a great idea, ditto the outside shower, but only if you live where there will be no peeping Toms. While you may not be able to duplicate her ideas exactly, these should give you inspiration to work with what you have at home, wherever that may be.
