Bring the beauty of your surroundings into your home via 25 tasteful art projects in Art from the Garden.
This is a gorgeously photographed, warmly detailed guide to creating works of art with materials (mostly) from your own garden. Create chic vases from twigs, visually stunning luminarias using water, your own gorgeous blooms, and a freezer, cyanotype prints with a branch and the power of the sun, and other striking projects. The 25 step-by-step projects are easy to find, nestled into categories like pressed flowers, frozen botanicals, cyanotype, wrapped stones, so on. Artist and photographer Kerry Michaels lends her artistic and photographic talent, refined eye, and warm writing voice to this book for folks who want to bring nature into their home in sophisticated, highly personalized ways.
