A fun read with some design advise thrown in. Not your typical design look-book that's for sure!
I'm wanted more design images with advise, and it did give some advise with humor ... but reading some of it made me cringe, like maybe not completely over a boyfriend/bad break up and this was made as an outlet? Not bad, not great...just good for me. I was just looking for more designs/style/advise for a hopeful future home owner!
