After much anticipation, I recently made my way to Liberty's London where I had the privileged of attending the UK book launch of DECORATE by none other than Decor8's Holly Becker and co-author Joanna Copestick. Having followed her blog for much time, I was delighted and eagerly awaited its arrival. This poignant book opens doors into some of the world's most stylish homes photographed by talented Debi Treloar.
