Summary: Linda Barker Is My God!
Comment: If only the BBC's "Changing Rooms" would come to America. Oh sure --- I know we have TLC's "Trading Spaces", which I like but there is nothing like the original. Linda Barker's "Finishing Touches" is full of her wonderfully creative, inventive and stylish design ideas that have made her a permanent fixture in the world of interior design. She mixes eclectic bohemian with contemporary style to come up with some of the most beautiful rooms I have ever seen. She's a true gem and I just adore her!

Summary: A great place for anyone to start!
Comment: For some funny reason, when I first checked out my new channel BBC American on the new super cable, I found this little show. And, I was hooked ever since. I don't like home improvement shows because most of the time they fix things that I will never do, like rebuild a classic barn with 15 carpenters and a 50k budget. Hey, I live in the city, that is never gonna happen to me. 'Changing Rooms' and their designer Linda Barker actually work on projects that can be accomplished by the average schmo, like me. And, these books, take you through step-by-step. It is a total DIY approach. Not all the designs are fluffy or build around gaudy themes (though some are, usually for fun.) Most are fun and basic ideas that can be manufactured with a small budget (like the show.) From reading through this book and Linda's 'Colour' book, I now have a much better eye for what I can do with my space, and knowing that is will not cost much in the end. Which is what true home improvement shows should be all about! If you are looking for new colors or want to redo an entire home, this is a great place to start for inspiration!
