Decorating Is Fun!
Decorating Is Fun!: How to Be Your Own Decorator | Dorothy Draper
1 post | 1 to read
A beautifully reproduction of the original book published in 1939 Filled with tips, advice and anecdotes on decorating that still ring true today A must-have for fans and followers of both Dorothy Draper and Carleton Varney After being out of print for many years, Decorating is Fun is being republished with its original illustrations and a new introduction by Draper's protege, designer Carleton Varney. Amazingly, the book is still practical, amusing and inspirational. Draper's earnest enthusiasm feels fresh and contemporary. She believed that though there were troubles in the world, one's home should be a refuge, a cheerful place for entertaining one's friends and a colorful and comfortable shelter from the storm."

I met Carleton Varney, interior decorator with Dorothy Draper Co., at the Greenbrier Resort. He signed a book for me and even drew a whimsical self-portrait. We told him we go back and forth for conferences. It says, “For Jill Happy Days at the Greenbrier__come back & forth soon Carleton Varney. #interiordesign #design #authorsigning
