Even if you have zero time, New York apartment stager and interior decorator Jill Vegas has a project for you. Her new book boasts that you can decorate your entire house in a matter of weeks or less. In “Speed Decorating: A Pro Stager’s Tips and Trade Secrets for a Fabulous Home in a Week or Less” (Taunton Press), Vegas offers tips on how to change your home with the goods you already have.

After a career in advertising, Vegas made a name for herself in the real estate world, staging multimillion-dollar apartments for sale. She applied what she learned in one trade to the other. “You have to seduce people within 30 seconds,” she says. “The same thing applies to your home. This book is about projects real people can tackle themselves in a week, with any budget.”The book is available for $21.95 at local bookstores and $14.93 at Amazon.com.
