Description:
"The essential spirit of simple style," stylist Karin Hossack declares, "means clearing away the clutter to make space for the things that really matter." But simple doesn't mean plain or boring. Her spare, elegant designs, drawn from the folk traditions of several cultures, achieve plain good looks from affordable materials and easy techniques. Frosted window stencils derived from Hungarian and Polish ceramic designs, an ornamental wheat sheaf inspired by Scandinavian tradition, cut-paper shelf edging based on Mexican methods, a curtain of ribbons tailed with pretty ornaments, utterly charming twig reindeer, lovely wreaths (including an edible one decked out with foil-covered chocolates), an embroidered felt-tree skirt--the list of appealing choices goes on. Each of the more than 20 projects is shown in nice close-up color photos; the rear of the book presents good step-by-step instructions for every project, plus templates for those that use patterns. --Amy Handy
