Embellish Your HomeIt’s personality and creativity that turn an ordinary house into a warm and inviting home. Using her own home as an example, TV host (Embellish This!) and designer Dena Fishbein teaches home decorators everywhere how embellishments can put a personal stamp on their d cor. From hand-painting a delicate flower border on a kitchen wall to making sachet pillows out of vintage tea towels, these simple yet elegant projects add the perfect touch to every room. Best of all, they’re quick and fun to create, and many use the hidden treasures (like old and worn dressers) you already own. Craft beautiful place mats and napkins, create custom shades, hand-paint glass, and play with lighting and candles to dramatic effect. The results will be amazing. |
