Stunning Ideas 5
This book is filled with stunning ideas for how to create and live in Georgian style today. The book is filled with fabulous pictures giving lots of inspirational ideas about how to decorate, and furnish homes for that Georgian look.

I'm currently refurbishing a Georgian style building and I am constantly flicking through this book to give me ideas for everything from staircases to wallpaper.
