Review
Sophisticated, artfully rustic, sometimes practical but more often purely fun, the sculptural garden adornments presented here are leagues beyond the cutesiness of many garden crafts. There are no flowery painted birdhouses or little welcome signs; instead we find abstract wire spider webs, weathered wooden benches, elaborate willow trellises, glistening stone mosaics, and shimmering structures of glass. The bulk of the book concentrates on the history of artistic garden adornment and showcases stunning examples, both historic and contemporary. How-to hints are included for a dozen projects, most of which require fairly advanced crafting skills, including a wildwood bench, whimsical mosaic people, and a massive slate urn built with the techniques of dry-stone walling. For the adventurous, this volume offers lots of unique ideas. --Amy Handy
From the Back Cover
This unique new book is a practical guide to creating handcrafted features for your garden. Every major craft is covered, including mosaic, metal, wire, glass, pebble, wood, coppice work, and willow. There are ideas for both practical and ornamental features, including decorative pebble paths, hanging glass panels, mosaic pools, wooden whirligigs, driftwood furniture, and willow sculptures.Garden Crafts describes the historical origins of each craft, the diversity of objects that can be made for the garden, materials - new and recycled - and where to get them, paints and other finishes, design considerations such as placement and associated planting, and tools and techniques.Each chapter concludes with two projects to create for your own garden, complete with a list of required materials, step-by-step construction techniques, and beautiful color photographs of the finished project in a garden setting.
