Fantastic Furniture: Intriguing Paint Techniques & Projects description
Tired tables, boring bookcases, cast-off chairs, and other fatigued furnishings take on a whole new life when dressed up with zingy colors and simple paint techniques. In Fantastic Furniture: Intriguing Paint Techniques & Projects, author Mickey Baskett and a team of designers show how easy it is to embellish flea-market finds or new unpainted items with color blocking, stamping, stenciling, or simple drawn motifs, or with slightly more complicated methods like decorative painting, crackling, or detailed hand-painted designs. Step-by-step instructions and patterns are included for all 30 projects. Styles range from bright and bold to softly romantic, with several kid-themed projects as well. This guide takes a very similar approach to Baskett's similarly titled Fantastic Furniture in an Afternoon, but it does not repeat actual projects; overall this one offers more variety. --Amy Handy |

♥♥♥♥♥ |
good book for beginner
|
| This book is great for someone with limited knowledge of painted furniture. The pictures are nice, covering both the older flowery country style and the new funky multi color style. It is short on in depth details of paints, supplies, and preperation. But there is enough info to get you through a project. For those that cant draw there are some patters for flowers ans such. The projects presented are inspiring and unique not cheap or tacky looking. The book does not cover classical faux paint techniques that could be combined into the projects presented. If you need that type of information I highly recommend The Art of Painted Finish by Isabel O-Neil. |
