A Mary Engelbreit Re-Do 2 out of 5 stars.
19 of 20 people found this review helpful.
Disappointment as I am a charter subscriber to Mary Englebreit's magazine. Subscribers to Mary's wonderful magazine entitled Home Companion should note that much of this work is reprinted from the magazines. This should've been stated so unsuspecting buyers wouldn't repurchase what they already have. If you don't subscribe to the magazine this would be a wonderful book to own. It is filled with great photos of inspirational ideas for incorporating into our own homes.
Note if You have been a subscriber to Home Companion 2 out of 5 stars.

Unfortunately this book "recycled" alot of content from back issues of Mary Engelbreit Home Companion magazine. Not much here for Mary's loyal subscribers. Mary, why didn't you offer us something new?
homes with personality 4 out of 5 stars.

This is a beautiful book showcasing homes with personality. The rooms aren't all "decoratory" and precisely "country" or "traditional." Judge the book on its own merits (which are many), not on the basis that the photos have appeared in a magazine before.
A decor book for the artist within 4 out of 5 stars.

As professional home stylist and a lover of all things creative, I purchased this book. I was afraid it was going to be all cutesy country but it was not. It does have a lot of vintage items in great vignettes but is also has chapters on "Bohemian Rhapsody" - ethnic decor, and a chapter entitled "The bare necessities"- which expounds on the "less is more" look. If you want a home that says, "An artist lives here"; this book will give you great ideas and inspiration. This book is now one of my favorites in my extensive decorating book collection.
