Front and Backyard Idea Book Collection (Taunton Home Idea Books)

The Front and Backyard Idea Book Collection combines two books that together offer innovative ideas for transforming every part of one's yard into personal and livable space. Jeni Webber's popular Front Yard Idea Book is filled with practical ideas for creating that all-important first impression, starting with an inviting entry. Webber offers insights into the role a front yard plays for a home and more than two dozen plans for all types of homes and settings, and every shape and size lot. Lee Anne White's Backyard Idea Book literally takes up the rear, moving readers from the prosaic lawns, swing sets, and dog pens to a more imaginative space for communal gathering, a showcase for intriguing decks and patios, and on to fully furnished outdoor rooms with floors, walls, and ceilings. The book includes hundreds of ideas for expanding the possibilities of a space too often taken for granted.
