Don't waste your hard earned dollars. Nancy W. I received this book today. I really wanted to like it, but there just isn't much there. The photography is terrible and the decor is late eighties at best. A child could take better photos with a cellphone.Needless to say, I'll be printing a return label tomorrow.. "Leave it on the shelf" according to mlouise. Very disappointingnot a single top tier designer. I should have known better Schiff books always misses the mark. Uninspiring interiors and very dated holiday decor all photographed very poorly and reproduced poorly.. StefaniMH said Decorating Don'ts. This book is filled with unintentionally hilarious, tacky interiors and Christmas decor so over the top that it looks like Santa and his elves drank too much eggnog and threw up all over the place. People, have you never heard the saying "less is more"???
