Interior designer, HGTV star and social media influencer Emily Henderson is out with a new book about how to decorate and renovate, from start to finish.
In this visually driven decorating bible punctuated with photographs from real homes and colorful illustrations, she takes you through her entire process.
“We feature rooms designed by real risk-takers, rule-breakers, and incredible DIY-ers,” says Henderson on her blog. “I feel so lucky to have learned from these talents.”
From picking paint, arranging furniture, hanging window treatments, and deciding on lighting fixtures, Henderson walks you through her decisions, and why she wants you to take risks with your home design without experiencing regret.
You’ll also learn when to hire a contractor versus an architect versus a handy-person, all the materials to consider (and why you might want to skip those marble countertops), proper measurements of the elements in each room, and so much more.
By the end of the book, you’ll feel more confident when it comes to visualizing the home of your dreams, and you’ll finally know how to make it happen.
The New Design Rules: How to Decorate and Renovate, from Start to Finish is available for pre-order now, and will be released on April 12, 2022.
