What people are saying about Funky Shui and the O'Neil Sisters...
“Watch your back, Martha. There’s a new posse of anti-perfectionism, anti-minimalism…mavens on the scene: Jennifer and Kitty O’Neil, authors of Decorating With Funky Shui: How to Lighten Up, Loosen Up, and Have Fun Decorating Your Home.” – Kimberly Chun, San Francisco Chronicle Sunday Magazine
"In the world of staid and stuffy design by the rules, the O'Neil Sisters are a fabulous breath of fresh air. Not only do they remind us to find the "fun" in funky, their creative and cockeyed vision of design/entertaining/you-name-it breaks new ground and makes an adventure out of anything and everything. I don't know what it is that they're drinking (probably a funky cocktail of their own invention), but I want what they're having." – Anne Krueger, HGTV.com Decorating Editor
“They are naturals. Beautiful, smart, funny…and clever. Spend some quality time with the O’Neil Sisters and you’ll discover the cutting edge of decorating with a smile.”
– Michael Hoff, President and Executive Producer, Michael Hoff Productions, Inc. Producer of shows for HGTV, Discovery Channel, National Geographic, and Travel Channel.
“Jennifer and Kitty O’Neil bring a delightfully frothy combination of fun, mischief, and expertise to their approach. They adore what they do, and that energy is the good kind of infectious.” – Angela Sasse, Style Writer, Diablo magazine
“Great ideas for every room in the house—including the yard. With excellent pictures and fun tips, this book is a must-have.” – Jaime Spangrude, Los Angeles Daily News
“For those of us who decry the booming cult of domestic perfection, Funky Shui is a fun and charming antidote to bare-bones, bare-walled interior design. Funky Shui gives everyone permission to relax about their home interiors, promoting more time spent having a good laugh and less time spent fretting over the color of the matching Eames daybeds.” – Christie Mellor, author of The Three-Martini Playdate, A Practical Guide to Happy Parenting
“They’re hip. They’re funky. They’re fabulous. Kitty and Jennifer are the sparks that every party needs.” – Paula Jhung, author of Cleaning and the Meaning of Life
“The rules of Funky Shui aren’t really rules at all so much as guidelines, all of which come back to maximizing good, clean domestic fun. And the O’Neil sisters dish out just as many smiles, winks and puns as they do helpful hints, which makes Decorating with Funky Shui not only a fun read, but also the go-to reference when you need to figure out how to pull a room together decoratively and show off those late night eBay impulse buys, such as that collection of ‘Star Trek’ commemorative plates from the Franklin Mint. And if nothing else, you can keep the book on hand to leaf through if you get bored while watching ‘Trading Spaces.’” – George Bragdon, Bangor Daily News
