Victoria: Romantic Country Style: Creating the English Country Look in Your Home

I love this book. I have followed every Victoria magazine and book since day one. I immediately made it my goal to be featured on the pages of Victoria Magazine. My dream came true June 92, and was the cover story. This book if full of wonderful decorating ideas, fabulous photographs and always gentle writing to put you in the mood, to sit quietly, sip a cup-o-tea and imagine yourself on the pages that are appealing to your sensual pleasure. I have always love decorating, and my own book on victorian chic style will be coming out this Fall. Again, thankyou Victoria Magazine for yet another inspirational and exquisite publication. Keep them coming.

I wasn't happy with this book. The pictures weren't of true original English country style they were of houses that used sparse furnishings and didn't tell or show you how to decorate in this way. If you want two exceptional books on English Cottage decorating buy The Country Diary Book of English Country Style and also The English Country Cottage. The pictures are wonderful showing how to decorate and the written paragraph explains why you decorate that way.

It was very nice. In good condition.

It was a good book but there was too much writing. I would've preferred more pictures.

For those of us that prefer a decorating book with simple charm, mismatched furniture and personal treasures this is the book for you. Defects are not obscured as they would be in a decorating book featuring American homes. No perfectly matched furniture or picture perfect rooms are shown. Includes lots of photographs and plenty of text. A pleasure to read.

I enjoyed this book and this anyone who likes The English country style will as well. I will keep it as a re read.

Not what I was hoping it would be. Books are a personal thing and this just doesn't grab me and make me want to read more.

This book has many of the style aspects I was looking for. I will use it time and time again as a go to reference for my decorating and re purposing needs. Many good project ideas inside.

another lovely book

キャンドルで、お庭に一寸飾り付けを施したり、クリスマスにぴったりっていうかわいい飾り付けなど､生活を楽しむ本として、すごーく参考になりました。全体的に､かわいい感じなんですが、センス良いかわいさになっていると思います。中身は、表紙以上のきれいな写真がいっぱいあって、とってもお得な本でした。
