This is a truly wonderful book. The author is very interesting and detailed. You can really build the furniture that is shown in this book. He has short enlightening stories about his experiences. I loved this book. It is even very encouraging.I am so glad I have purchased such a wonderful treasure!
Gave this to a friend retiring to her beach house who intends to get in touch with her crafty side, and who has a hard time sitting still. Since she also loves driftwood, this book was a hit. I was surprised that it gave such specific instructions for specific projects, but it does say, "practical projects" in the title! Even though she may not follow the actual instructions for the furniture pieces, it will provide a basis for how to approach projects and great inspiration for new creations.
my father in law collects driftwood from lake superior and already makes stuff so this will give him more ideas!
