3 out of 5 stars Disappointing   August 5, 2008
The photos are beautiful, but I didn't purchase it for the photos.
I purchased it to discover the use of mechanics to construct the beautiful florals. There is some text about materials used, but very little. Disappointing.



2 out of 5 stars Too Over The Top!   June 30, 2008
Garish and over the top almost to the point of vulgarity. Not my taste I prefer cleaner lines and less ostentatiousness.


4 out of 5 stars Inspirations   April 15, 2008
Although I think this book is well done, I much preferred his other books.


5 out of 5 stars Beautiful pictures   February 27, 2008
I bought this book so I can find ideas for my wedding decoration, it has great and beautiful pictures, but obviously it's impossible to try to imitate Preston Bailey's ideas. I do recommend this book. You can use it afterwards for a coffee table book.


5 out of 5 stars chic ideas   January 26, 2008
I'm an Interior Designer and this is a practical guide for clients visually. I'm not for copying works but inspiration to what we can do of endless possibilities.
