Painted Furniture establishes a theme for a room, then shows you how to create a decorative piece to relate to that theme. Divided into two sections - patterns and finishes - Painted Furniture presents plenty of tips and full-color photographs that will have you producing your own beautiful furniture in no time - for your home, as gifts for friends, and even to sell!
