Everyday Elegance

The popular interior design diva and host of HGTV’s Candice Tells All series shares aspirational and achievable room revamps—from lofts to basements.

When you can’t move, you improve, and no one can help homeowners improve elegantly better than Candice Olson. Featuring two dozen gorgeous before-and-after room makeovers, Candice shows how to create grown-up living rooms and dining rooms that are both beautiful and practical enough for daily use. Even dark and tired basements become warm and inviting spaces for entertaining when Candice works her magic on them. The designs are inspirational but attainable, and Candice’s explanations of how each room took shape give readers lots of concrete tips and advice, regardless of budget. Each makeover includes Candice’s crystal-clear room sketches and materials boards so that homeowners can easily implement the same high-style elegance in their own spaces.
