Product Description

The perfect bedroom is more than just a place to sleep, it's a haven for reading, relaxing, or even working at a desk or laptop. Above all, it's a sanctuary--a room that should replenish and restore, and ELEGANT AND EASY BEDROOMS will help readers create a personal oasis, whatever their budget. Ideas within include how to give inexpensive sheer curtains an elegant upgrade; how designer-tested colors can make a cramped bedroom feel airy and open; and bright new ideas for "catching" and maximizing sunlight.

From Library Journal
Landis, contributing editor to Metropolitan Home, expands on her previous book, Elegant and Easy Rooms (LJ 1/98), dividing its information into separate books and giving more tips she has assembled from interior designers over the years. While in her previous book she gave unaccredited tips, here she identifies the designers and even mentions specific products, such as which Benjamin Moore color a designer recommends for hallways, making the information even more helpful to amateur decorators. In each book, she discusses furniture, windows, ceilings, and walls, concluding with a list of resources for home furnishings, paint, and accessories. An excellent purchase for public libraries.
