by Linda Barker (Author)
This book takes 20 of the most commonly-found items of junk furniture - such as tables, chairs, chests of drawers and cabinets - and shows how they may be transformed into furniture to be proud of. It introduces a wide range of techniques and materials via step-by-step instructions and photography; this, coupled with suggestions for other applications of the techniques, provides the reader with a solid base of ideas for experimentation. Popular decorative techniques such as decoupage, stencilling, gilding punched tin, mosaic and paint effects are employed on glass, metal and wood.
