The emphasis of this book is on economy, speed and ease of application, but the results are stunningly effective - with a professional finish that will enhance any decorative scheme and every room in the house. None of the projects used in this book will take more than a few hours to complete, including the time spent on preparation, while all the methods described make use of paints, varnishes and other materials which are readily available from decorating shops and DIY stores. When using this book there is no need to search out ingredients and blend them carefully in the manner of the true craftsman, and the range of specialist tools and other equipment required is decidedly minimal and often disposable.
