Reviews

Hallam presents dozens of garden-related projects, illustrated with 180 color photographs. In a chapter titled "Fresh-air Living," there are instructions on making draperies for a porch overlooking a garden, on refurbishing a deck, and on making a bubbling fountain. "The Garden Inside" offers advice on making "summery" slipcovers, on finding affordable collectibles with garden motifs, and on decorating a room with a garden theme. There are instructions on redesigning a work space (inspiration should come from the formal gardens of England and France) and on making pillows, a headboard (it looks like a picket fence), and a "birdbath" table. There are tips on creating art from dried herbs, on decorating a watering can, on collecting birdhouses, on "aging" outdoor ornaments, on creating a miniature garden, and on planting pots of fast-growing grass seed to use as centerpieces. And that's just a start; there are many more decorating ideas to keep garden enthusiasts busy year-round. George Cohen
