Greenhouses and Garden Sheds,
The description of this book said that the book included plans and instructions for building greenhouses. While it had beautiful photographs of traditional glass greenhouses, which is what I want to build, the “plans” were for plastic covered greenhouses over pvc pipe. Had I been able to “look inside” more of the book, I would have saved my money. This book, while pretty, is functionless. What a disappointment.

|THINKING OF BUILDING A GREENHOUSE OR SHED? GET YOUR INSPIRATION RIGHT HERE!,
This is a 5 star DIY book. The MSRP on the book is 19.99; I paid under 13.00 for it through Amazon Prime. GREENHOUSES AND GARDEN SHEDS is quite the bargain! This book is literally packed with inspiration! Replete with full color pictures, the author gives you step by step instructions on building a variety of styles as simple as a PVC hoop house to a permanent A-frame structure. He explains zoning requirements, lighting, plumbing, building site location recommendations, and the pros and cons of using various building materials; oh geez, just gobs and gobs of great information! It is chock-full of ideas, practical and beautiful. I have not built my dream-house greenhouse yet but now I am chompin’ at the bit to get started.
While experienced craftsmen may not be as impressed as I am with the information in this book, it is perfect for the layperson. The lovely photos feature gorgeous examples of the various types of greenhouses and garden sheds. One cannot help but get motivated to build. The wealth of knowledge shared in this book will educate you. I dare say that even the professional carpenter would be inspired by the beauty and functionality of the designs in this book.
As a bonus the author also includes step by step plans for other easy garden projects such as planter boxes, a coldframe, a potting table, a bench, and a few other goodies. Simple? Yes, but maybe a good way to break yourself in to basic carpentry skills.
This would be a fun book to ‘cozy up with’ on a rainy Sunday afternoon.

|Informative book with great ideas!,
After having read several greenhouse books, I found this one to be better than all of the rest. It has very good illustrations and really practical ideas for both greenhouses and garden sheds. I wish I had invested in this book before I started building a greenhouse…
