Ever thought about transforming that rusty old item in the garage into something awesome to impress visitors to your garden, or fancied refurbishing the random old dining chair in the shed but don't have the tools or know-how? In Upcycling Outdoors, Max McMurdo teaches you how to discover your inner design genius, where to find great scrap items, and techniques on how to transform them into great design for your garden and outdoor spaces. Divided into Planters and Containers (copper-edged wooden planters, vintage suitcase planter, nautical style planter), Outdoor Structures (fabric teepee, mindful dressing table corner, firepit), Eating and Entertaining (car bonnet BBQ, outdoor domino set, bicycle picnic set, wheelbarrow beer store), Furniture (repurposed picnic bench, concrete-skimmed occasional table, living grass chair, swing), Lighting and Accessories (bird cage lights, dog-feeding station, outdoor chandelier, lampshades), Max shows simple design ideas throughout the book that will inspire you to roll up your sleeves and have a go. Step away from the chipboard and venture out of your comfort zone into a glorious world of doodles, sanding, waxing, stunning colours and the satisfaction of telling people that you made that!
