Jonathan Fong's Walls that Wow is just the book for anyone who as ever been inspired by home-makeover shows...and intimidated by fussy, fancy faux-finishing techniques. Author Jonathan Fong presents imaginative, stylish wall treatments using unexpected materials that will make even the dullest walls suddenly stand up and sparkle. Six sections--on fabric, metal, paper, special effects, ideas that stick, and your wall as art--include twenty-four dazzling projects, each rated by level of ease (because none of them are difficult). Each dramatic, simple, inexpensive wall idea is presented with brilliant color pictures, plus materials checklists, step-by-step instructions, helpful hints, and an ETW (estimated time of wow). Jonathan Fong's Walls that Wow will make readers everywhere say, "Wow, even I can do this--and I want to!"

2Not very useful for my home  Jun 30, 2007
I ended up donating this book to the library book sale. The ideas were not practical for a "regular" house (and I have old wood floor painted bright red, so I am not totally traditional) and I am sorry I bought it without looking at it first.

5Perfect Subtitle  Nov 09, 2006
Exactly right: no faux painting here, just good ideas for all kinds of rooms. Loved it.

3Lots of Ideas Here  Mar 03, 2006
This book has lots of ideas, some quite unique, for decorating your walls. Unfortunately some are so unique that they edge over into the weird territory. In Fong's case, this happens with:
*the sticky note covered wall
*the compact disk covered wall
*a gray wall with a grid of yellow envelopes containing orange notes
*stapling pages of a book in a scattered way on a wall to make it look like they blew there from a book on the table
Maybe some designers are trying too hard to be novel and to stand out from the crowd.

1This book is written for teenage girls  Nov 02, 2005
The book has few inovative ideas. Come on Spirograph and sticky notes on the wall...Watch a few shows on the home and garden network for better more unique ideas and save the $20.

5Amazing creativity!  Oct 29, 2005
I loved this book. The ideas were amazing -- I never thought I'd find so many creative ideas that I would be excited to try. The format is very thorough and easy to follow with great photography, so that even I feel I can actually do it despite not being very handy. And Jonathan's dry wit throughout makes the book a fun read. I'm sure I'll be referring back to this book many times over the years.
