 | Decorating Your Garden by Mickey Baskett
You wouldn`t leaving of leaving your home bare and undecorated, so why should you ignore your garden? After all, it`s an extension of your house and deserves equal attention and love. With just a few basic techniques -- and a lot of creativity -- you can add beauty and interest by making your own garden art. These 30 projects, seen in full-color photographs, feature outdoor furniture; fence, sign, and patio painting; flowerpot decorations; birdhouses; and mosaics. Among the ideas, you`ll find: a swimming pool transformed into a garden pond, underneath a canopy of treetops and fences turned into walls to hang planters and signs. Embellish wood furniture, birdbaths, plaques, and terra-cotta pots with mosaics. See how to paint on a variety of surfaces -- wood, metal, cement -- and add depth, dimension, and color to a plain fence with a trompe l`oeil design. Scatter pretty glazed and decorated chairs throughout the grounds. You`ll soon have a garden so lovely and inviting you`ll never want to go indoors again! AUTHOR: Mickey Baskett
