Book Description

Furniture Decoration Made Easy - A practical work manual for decorating furniture by stencilling, gold-leaf application and freehand painting. This handbook on furniture decoration is not intended as an exhaustive reference work on the history of stencilling, nor on the lives of the early artisans. The principal benefits you may obtain by a careful study of its contents are: (1) explicit instructions for the amateur, (2) short cuts we have learned by many years of decorating, (3) ideas for applying the old patterns to the vast amount of reproduction furniture easily obtainable today.
