Hundreds of ideas for affordable finishing touches that will enhance the elegance and individuality of your home. Caroline Clifton-Mogg looks at the principles of display and arrangement, of the importance of scale, and how to edit your possessions so they make the maximum impact, in chapters including Pictures, Mirrors and Other Wall Art, Flowers and Plants, Soft Furnishings, China and Glass, and Living (encompassing Living with Books, Mantelpieces and Fireplaces, Lighting and Decorative Collections). From hanging pictures to arranging quirky collections, from displaying textiles to making the most of mantelpieces, she shows you how to display items in an attractive way, how to combine different pieces to best effect and how to create focal points in a room. Caroline proves that genuinely stylish interiors do not have to cost a fortune; it is the way items are displayed that brings them to life.
