Guide Review - Garden Whimsies
Decorating the great outdoors is fun and easy! Create items for your yard and garden using the ideas from this book. Start out with the whimsical by making a flower pot tic-tac-toe game or silly garden rocks with 3 dimensional smiling faces. Once your done with those, you can dress up a clay pot and a few saucers to make a stunning bird bath and then make a garden path using inspirational stepping stones. Use the transformed buckets shared in this book to serve up cold refreshments and as table decorations to hold flowers or candles. You can make all these and more garden crafts!
