| | A candle, a light bulb, or natural daylight illuminating a translucent sheet of paper can create surprises by casting a shadow through holes onto another surface, illuminating a subtle pattern in the paper, or showing off a batiked design. As the popularity of handmade paper grows, this unique book takes the paper crafter beyond stationery, cards, and journals to innovative designs for using colored and textured paper to make striking three-dimensional home furnishings: luminaria, lanterns, room divider screens, sconces, lampshades, nightlights, window shades, and more.
This book includes inspiring full-color photographs of the projects, as well as the works of a variety of talented paper artists. Line drawings illustrate the step-by-step instructions. Paper decorative techniques include piercing, layering, collage, crayon batiking, fold and dye, marbling, nature printing, rubber stamping, stenciling, embossing, and weaving. Also included is easy-to-understand information on lamp basics and safety, wiring and rewiring lamps, and creating interesting lamp bases. |

| World of Windows is the JCPenny name for the book Window Covering Basics. ----- FROM THE PREFACE --- "The prospect of doing your own windows can be overwhelming. However, being your own decorator isn't as difficult as you may think. You can do it with the help of this guide. You will be able to properly measure your windows, and buy the appropriate size draperies or curtains, the right amount of panels or valances or tiers, and the correct hardware. You will also be able to install your selected window treatment to achieve a decorator look. The formulas are simple and logical. --- You may wish to use World of Windows as a reference manual and simply turn to the section relevant to the project you have at hand. However, many suggested treatments in the sections on options may be applicable to more than one type of window covering. Throughout this guide you will find valuable 'Reader Tips.' The simplified illustrations will remove the mystery of bay windows, corner windows, and French doors, and stimulate your imagination. |
