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.
