  Making the most of a yard or garden does not necessarily mean being a green-fingered enthusiast and people are increasingly seeing their garden as an outdoor room. Readily available, easy to work with and inexpensive, wood is the ideal material for creating stylish and practical garden features. Woodwork for the Garden presents 16 functional yet attractive projects, from trellises and planters, to decking and garden furniture. Each has step-by-step photographs and instructions and the finished piece is photographed in its garden setting. Clear construction diagrams and concise text accompany every project, and there are inspirational spreads featuring woodwork structures to provide even more ideas for the hobby carpenter. With expert advice on staining and varnishing wood for the outdoors to ensure that it lasts, this is both an attractive and accessible practical DIY book.
