  • Great gift for those retiring to the beach!
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. ... show more

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! ... show more

  • ... a well balanced presentation of the craft - also fun book to read and dream
A "must" book in a wood's man's library - a well balanced presentation of the craft - also fun book to read and dream.

  • Summer inspiration.
Love the book - I live near several rivers and love the look of driftwood anyway. This will inspire me the whole summer.

  • Fun book
Great idea book for using driftwood to make not only furniture but plant arbors and even sailboats to fill with flowers as a front yardarm piece. I'm not a carpenter but think even I could accomplish a project. Fun to read and imagine. Start collecting wood right now!

It has some good ideas. A lot of guided steps. We got if just for the ideas, looking forward to trying several things this summer.

  • Jeff's review
The inserted sections show 16 color fullpage photos with 144 pages of practical instruction on fun project examples. Lots of black and white illustrations detail assembly steps. Dimensions of basic furniture and required wood pieces are listed. Examples are often outdoor furniture. The skill level is basic. ... show more
