After having read this book, I had no more idea on how to build a shed than I did before I had read it. However, I did now know what should be included in a shed. It would appear, that as a garden, the shed is as individualized as ones dreams. This book is a look into others dreams of perfection. It allowed me to peak into others imaginations just long enough to glimpse the very special places people go to be alone and create

I turn to this lovely little book, which I have owned for some time, when I want ideas. There is a sunny corner of my old carriage house that would make a nice potting area, and this book helps fuel my dreams. The text is practical, the photos are lovely. I can smell the soil and the damp when I look at them. If you dream of spending hours pottering away, if you are more than a bit wearing of the stress of modern-day life, lose yourself in this book.

While building my potting shed, I was searching for books for ideas both for the exterior and decorating inside. This book also is a joy to read!
