Garden designer P. Allen Smith is best known for the beauty he creates outdoors. Now, for the first time, he has turned his attention to the indoors. Whether it's growing a citrus tree in your kitchen, or using boxed plants to decorate your dining table, Allen's 65 fail-safe projects are pure inspiration for every room in your home--including the often overlooked entranceway. He shows how to choose the right containers for the greatest impact, decorate with the season in mind, pick unusual but visually dramatic props to complement a bouquet, or showcase a collection by using them as centerpieces for flowers and plants. As a result, you'll transform your place into a garden home. Even if you're not a gardener, these projects can work in your home.--From publisher description. |
