Customer Reviews

For ideas and DIY, this book does not disappoint

I checked this book from the library and it has great garden structure design ideas and project plans. But the real value is how informative the book is. This is intended for the weekend warrior who is not especially knowledgeable about woodworking or carpentry but has enough skill to follow clear directions. It also gets you well grounded in basic technique so that you will be able to create your own unique designs for simple garden structures. To make a long story short - I am buying the book.

BEST I'VE SEEN

We're always on the lookout for great ideas for our garden. We have high standards and live in an executive neighborhood, so we look for quality and distinctive projects. This book has great ideas with well drawn plans and instructions. We built a gothic trellise this weekend. There's not another like it in town. It looks great. Fresh from this success, I'm headed to Home Depot to pick up wood for two other projects--a formal entryway and a simple lattice design to cover an electric meter. Thanks for the great work putting this unique book together.
