Most of us aspire to be rich and famous but little do we know of the trials and the pains that one has to go through to maintain one's estates and property.
Yet, we are more often than not bedazzled by the ornately carved and arched doorways, the lush lawns interrupted by intricately carved and chiseled sculptured marble fascia and the heavy teak wood
furniture, the heavenly fountains and the list seems unending. But if you desire to have a clear insight of the posh interior and exteriors of some of the most admired and world famous housing structures, go through the book House Beautiful Christmas edited by Sally Clark.
This book deals on an interesting topic, i.e. the luxurious modes of home décor and paraphernalia that have assumed the status of traditions in most of the palatial house of the Manhattan elite and in the Colonial mansions of the Williamsburg landed gentry. It also refers to the decoration procedures and adornment patterns in other country houses of less prominent statures. The sheer grandeur and opulence can get your head reeling and the stringent traditions and customs can make you feel claustrophobic but everything apart, these wealthy folks can sweep you off your feet at one go without you even getting an inkling of it.
Get to know about their mouthwatering food spread, their drop-dead shower palette and mind blowing décor schemes. Loaded with gorgeous photographs on nearly every page, this book is by far the most perfect visual treat both for those who can't afford to emulate it and for those who regard it as a commonplace affair.
