The book is already on its way to become a bestseller. The reason being that this book is true eye-candy! An explosion of colors that reminds one of a confetti cupcake: happy, cheery and sweet. A celebration of sorts.

The person behind those lovely photos is Tim Geaney (who has photographed for vogue and InStyle
.

The style and the projects are Jennifer Paganelli’s. She is the designer of the fabrics, which are showcased throughout this book. Jennifer has been featured in national publications like Real Simple and Country Living .

Some say that Jennifer Paganelli designs are amongst the more popular fabrics. Her fabrics are indeed very nice (see below); and based on her current collection, she shows readers how to whip up 21 beautiful home décor accents that will transform their house into a happy home. I’d say the book, the style, is both whimsical and cheery, as well as luxurious.
