Color is available to everyone - it is the most exciting, most powerful, and easiest-to-use decorating tool. Wonderfully versatile, it can be introduced into a room in an infinite number of ways, from paint and fabric to decorating details such as wallpaper, rugs, art, and collections. With this in mind, the editors of Country Living invite you to take a look at color at its country best.

The contributions that paint, fabric, and decorating details can make are detailed, proving what a vital tool for self-expression color can be. To inspire you, True Colors offers more than 200 color photographs of every room in the house, providing simple, fresh ideas to help you create a warm, inviting, and colorful home.
Amazon.com Review
"Bold use of color," declares the book's forward, "like profound music and poetry, can evoke emotional responses not easily described." Color is a vital part of an exciting and interesting environment, yet so many people are afraid to use it; they wind up instead with safe (and very dull) rooms. Fear no longer. With the help of this spectacularly visual book, just about anyone can learn to utilize color as a versatile and powerful decorating tool. Crammed with ideas, the well-written text explains how to successfully employ both bright and pale shades through the use of paint, furnishings, fabrics, and decorative accents. Every spread is filled with intense, eye-catching photographs that should inspire even the most timid homeowner to introduce some color into every room.
