I flipped through a lot of the decorating books in my library and struggled to find ones that actually help you get practical ideas. I've found the Domino ones to be my favorite. Not everything matches my style or budget, and some of the suggestions are impractical for me, but that's okay. I just like seeing what different things people can do to make a space personal and design-forward. Not everything in the book appealed to me or was what I was looking for, but it got ideas flowing.
