Synopsis

Reinventing your garden has never been easier. You can take the principles of home decoration outside to add atmosphere and style to your garden room whatever its shape or aspect. Outdoor floors are given innovative treatments using shells, pebbles or mosaic, while walls and fences respond beautifully to paint effects and creative plasterwork. A clever use of easy-to-make accessories can enhance even vegetable plots and dull practical elements, while exciting ideas and treatments for boxes, baskets, pots and planters show how to develop a decorative theme with colour and charm. Ideas in this book are inexpensive and easily achieved, and should provide inspiration for creative projects of your own. Richly illustrated with colour photographs, The Outdoor Decorator shows you how to create a visually stunning outdoor retreat with a true sense of personal style.

Media Reviews
Tessa Evelegh, renowned for her inspirational decorating ideas, presents this attractive book on pretty and innovative ideas for the garden. Lavishly illustrated and well laid-out, the book offers ideas from seating through to decorative ornaments to make your garden a more personal place to relax in. The projects are inventive and clearly explained making the book suitable for all and covering a wide range of tastes. Mosaic balls, seashell window-boxes, painted pots and feathery tablecloths offer inspiration for sultry summer evenings and frosty winter scenarios. Nor are plants or garden design omitted, herb wheels and advice on creating secret spaces intermingle with the decorative projects making this an ideal gift for craft-lovers who love gardening and gardeners who love craft-making. - Lucy Watson
