TATTERED TREASURES FOR YOUR GARDEN - Hardcover

Rusted relics, architectural pieces, weathered containers, charming birdhouses: these "throwaways" can make your garden magical. Go beyond traditional fixtures and furnishings, experiment with flea market finds, and see just how simple it can be to create dramatic and beautiful effects outdoors. Take an expert's advice on finding and salvaging treasures, using old doors and windows as design elements, recycling broken china as mosaic stepping stones, installing aging concrete decorations, building your own twig arbour, and even setting up a little French cafe in the backyard.
