Instantaneous Inspiration!

I happened upon this title while looking for some inexpensive-yet-beautiful ideas to implement in my first garden. After just 30 minutes of browsing through this book, I had a list of projects for my patio that I couldn't wait to try. Anyone can have a beautiful garden if you have tons of money to spend. Decorating Your Garden helps you figure out how to create your own little slice of Eden even if you are on a limited budget. The photographs are lush and beautiful and they are accompanied by directions which are easy to follow. Evelegh encourages the use of materials which are readily available. I'm a big fan of the many styles of painted pots she demonstrates. It's finally time to wake up my plain old terra cotta planters! There are also unusual ideas for decorating the often-overlooked garden walls beyond just covering them up with ivy. Until now, my apartment's patio has been mostly a place to store things I didn't want to keep inside. Thanks to this book, I'll be spending a lot more time in my beautifully-decorated "outdoor living room."
