Why create a single faux element - a painted table, wallpaper or window treatment - when you can design an entire room in faux decor? This exciting book will enable home decorators and artists to swathe their homes and workspaces in faux fashion - without breaking the bank. Sidebars and photographs illustrate how to 'fake it' from floor to ceiling with projects including special Gallic effects such as trompe l'oeil, glazing, marbling, stripping techniques for walls and ceilings, flea-market finds transformed into antique furniture look-alikes, floors that recall cobble-stone streets, art prints and collectibles, accents such as fireplaces, trellises and Brittany lace window treatments.
