A Promising Idea...that falls mostly flat,
By A Customer
This review is from: Two-Hour Garden Art (Two-Hour Crafts) (Hardcover)
The idea behind this book is a good one, but the presentation isn't what I had hoped.First of all, 95% of the text is completely unnecessary "fluff." Secondly, there aren't very many directions for projects. (And quite a few of the given projects are silly; for example, eight pages are devoted to making a lemonade stand and supposedly cute things to go with it.) If you want photographs of projects to inspire you to come up with your own things, then this book becomes more useful. However, I just don't think many of the ideas are very creative; many are just re-hashed. For example, a number of pages are devoted to flowers on porches and windows. But nothing I can't find in any issue of a decorating or gardening magazine is shown here; it's very basic stuff. Nonetheless, I did get one of two good ideas from the book: Turning floor lamps into "aged" pedestals or plant holders, and some specifics on making twig trellises. Overall, however, this book is disappointing, and seems overpriced for such a slim volume. I'd recommend you buy a few gardening magazines instead.
