Product Description

Product Description

Pebbles can be used to create imaginative and pretty patterns - their different shapes and colours provide an endless opportunity for original designs. This practical guide is for anyone who would like to add interest to his or her garden by creating unique pebble mosaics to decorate paths, patios or walls. Firstly, the book gives advice for finding and selecting materials, laying a simple mosaic and using designs in various parts of the garden. This is followed by step-by-step instructions for creating a variety of patterns. Finally, a series of basic designs is illustrated, including shapes for stars, flowers, trees, birds and borders, as well as more advanced ideas for commemorative plaques, figures and pictures. The materials are available from garden and landscaping suppliers, and also from sustainable, natural sources. The book should revive interest in this traditional craft which has been all but lost due to there being few practitioners and few books on the subject.

5.0 out of 5 stars Pebbles - Dash Off and Make Your Own!, 26 Jul 2003
There are a lot of books out there on this subject, but this has to be the definitive book for those who are particularly interested in learning more. The subject is covered in all the necessary areas, and the way the book is written makes you want to get out there the next morning, planning and constructing.

A book for enthusiasts, written by a professional, which does exactly what it says on the tin.
