1.0 out of 5 stars Creative Plans for Yard & Garden Structures, December 20, 2000

By A Customer

Sorry, this book misses the mark. I was looking for a plan to build a garden bridge over a drainage ditch in my yard. All this book does is show you a picture and tell you where you can purchase the plans. I am unhappy with this book and am returning it.

5.0 out of 5 stars One of my favorite Garden Plan & Idea Books, March 1, 2009

By	Catherine S. Todd "interested in all" (Oxford NC, USA) - See all my reviews

I have loved using this book since it's inception in 1995. The plans are not expensive at all, since I work with architects and designers, which can really drive up the cost. I am ordering a plan for a beautiful Art Studio / guesthouse, complete with kitchen and bath, for $75.00. The set of plans cost $50.00 almost 15 years ago, so they haven't gone up much.

I'm sorry for the people who ordered the book somehow thinking it would include the full set of plans. What you will get is a very nice drawing and a floor plan to describe what the project is. There are 42 designs for everything under the sun, and my clients love picking out projects to build as much as I do. Give the book a chance and you are sure to find something you too will enjoy.
