Book Reviews of Paint your home

Book Review: Just like it Says, Paint Your Home Interior!
Summary: 5 Stars

If you want to take on a large task like paint the whole interior of a home or just want to paint a room, this is a good primer to make sure you don't miss something that may only be obvious after the fact so you don't paint yourself into the proverbial corner. If you think you can just buy a brush and a can of paint and go to work, this book will show you what you may miss by simply not having been shown the details before so you are properly prepared. It's a home improvement book on painting for home owners, not for professional painters. I bought this book as I have a family estate home that needs to be updated after years of lived in wear and tear. I bought this book to get a primer on painting to help make the task easier. I'm already glad I did in my first evening of reading. It is well worth the money, even if you pay more than the $7 including shipping that I paid here on amazon. It's not a home interior designer book, it's a methodical text and practice for painting your home with excellent diagrams and illustrations. They are not photos of an author's project, but very well done diagrams to go with the text. The photos in the book are specific in detail to the situation and not the least bit vague. If you have a home painting project and don't quite know where to start, this is the book to help you get you started. If you want help with interior design, look for a book on interior design. This is very good book for the do it yourself home owner with an interior painting project.
