  • Garden Structures
This book is perfect for what I need. It shows different garden structures and how to build them. I was looking for a book that had ideas for my yard and this book fits my needs. I plan to use one of the designs. There are so many, it is hard to choose. The directions included for "how-to" are easy to understand, although I don't plan to build the structure myself. I will have it professionally built. I highly recommend this book. ... show more

  • Gazebos are fascinating little structures
Seems like every carpenter has a unique design angle on a gazebo. The emphasis here is on garden structures, rather than large open spaces. I liked the idea of tucking a small gazebo off in a corner of my back yard and this book has several suggestions.

  • If you are looking for start to finish plans don't buy this book.
When I purchased this book I was hoping to find instructions on building structures from start to finish. While this book has great photos of many different kinds of garden structures and some construction techniques it does not show you how to build anything from the ground up.

  • Great book. Great ideas.
I was looking to rebuild my existing 25 year old deck. I thought I wanted to incorporate some type of pergola or screen structure and this book gave me more ideas than I could hope for! Great book with very clear instructions.

  • A lot of great photos of lovely structures.
This book is another great book about outdoor structures from very large and ornate to more simple ones and on down to simple trellises. A good resource for those with the skills for the job.
