An instruction manual on transforming ready-to-build items into individual works of art. It also advises on giving new life to second-hand pieces. Special templates show large-scale "deconstructed" designs so that the reader can copy the templates. Each project is broken up into simple stages, and different effects and design variations are featured on a range of furniture, including different styles of chairs, tables, frames, dressers and cabinets. The manual covers how to apply scumble glazing, decorative metal leafing, dry brushing, antique waxing and distressing.
