I was a little hesitant when buying this book, since it seemed like there were a lot of ultra-girly things (there IS a ton of pink!) But I was really pleased when I started flipping through the pages. Even though there are ideas that aren't my style, with a little creativity anyone can adapt Mark's outlook to fit their own taste. For example: I was inspired by his "Desert Caravan" room, however, I couldn't live with orange. I took the basic design of the wall treatmant and applied it to my bedroom, substituting 3 beautiful shades of turquoise for the orange. It looks so much better now, and I can't believe I actually pulled it off!Other people might take one look at the book and return it to its shelf - they may think the rooms are too extravagant or over-the-top for their taste. But just because Mark gave these girls' rooms complete makeovers doesn't mean you have to invest tons of money and effort recreating the entire room! Picking out a couple accents and/or concepts can breathe new life into an old space. And there ARE many cheap and simple ways to do that.So if you're like me, you might have to work at convincing your mom or dad to let you brighten up your bedroom, but it'll be well worth it. A lot of ideas are all about refurnishing - reusing old pieces to create a brand-new look. Even if you're not creative, this book can give you tons of ideas on where to start.The reason why I gave Super Suite 4 stars instead of 5 is because it won't cater to everyone's tastes, but that is a very difficult thing to do. But whether your style is wild, girly, funky, romantic, elegant, or modern..... you'll like at least one thing in this book!
Currently, I am re-doing my room, and I've been looking for instructional books with fun, creative, cool, and easy-to-do projects for my room. I didn't really find any good ones, but when I discovered this at my local bookstore, I knew it would be perfect. As an added bonus, the book is written by Mark Montano, who has a monthly column in "CosmoGIRL!" called "Cool Room", in which girls get bedroom makeovers. Just like in the magazine, the rooms in this book are FABOLOUS! Each of them feature fantastic projects and crafts you can do to make your room look like the one you've always dreamed of. It has all sorts of themes- Victorian, flowers, historical, modern, glamourous, and many more- all that teenage girls today will enjoy. Plus, each chapter in the book includes a "Resources for this Room" section, where you'll find the places to go to find materials, supplies, etc. for the projects. (Also included in back is a "Buyer's Guide", a list of stores the author recommends checking out to find where to get cool materials) But don't worry-almost all of the projects in here require little or no money at all- but your room will still have that professional look!All in all, I highly recommend this book. I've found it to be an awesome resource, and since I'm redecorating my room, I've chosen the "Flower Power" theme in this book. I've done many of the projects, and my room is looking great! If you're a girl who wants a totally cool room to hang out, study, retreat, and be yourself in (and if you want to be the envy of all of your friends!), then head to the bookstore today and buy YOUR copy of Super Suite! It's the best book out there for teen girls to makeover their room, and I'm 100% sure that you'll totally LOVE the results!
I bought this book just a few months ago and I loved it! Super Suite has a lot of themes you can choose from. If you like an asian theme, a safari theme, a 'southwest roundup' theme or even a 50's theme for your room, it's all here.The crafts and ideas in this book are not that expensive and can be done no matter what your budget is! One of the most creative and innovative parts of this book is when Mark made a lamp, desk and a memo board using things you can find around the house.This book can be for girls of all ages, hobbies, styles and personalities. It's ideal for girls who want to turn their plain rooms into super suites that express a lot about themselves.
I recently purchased Super Suite at .com and I was floored with the rooms that Mark designed, constructed, crafted and compiled- all with the upbeat, modern, trendy style flair that all teenage girls desire. Mark satisifies an entire range of personalities in his designs! So thy will suit any teen girls interests and what they are looking to create in their room. All of the projects are simple to create and look beautiful! You ar able to choose an array of effects for creating unique curtains, window and wall treatments, lamps, furniture, headboards, pillows, linens, assorted accessories, floor treatments and much more! I am so thrilled with this book- it is amazing! I love the modern art that he does! I drawn to purchase this book because I am dedicated CosmoGirl magazine reader which features a monthly Cool Room feature with bedroom makeovers by Mark.Therefore I would really encourage anyone to purchase this book because it is so neat! It will fill ou with so much satisfaction and pleasure as you spend hours looking it over again. The projects are so inexpensive and simple to do that you can continually update the look of your marvelous room! Also pillows, art, accessories etc. make excellent gifts that will leave the receivor absolutely tickled with glee! Go on and start compiling YOUR Super Suite! I hope that you enjoy this book as much as i did!
