Description

From the beach to the backyard.

"Offers readers a wealth of information... numerous tips and ideas for working and designing with driftwood... of interest to many woodworkers and crafters."
-- Library Journal

Driftwood is an ideal building material. It is abundant, renewable and - best of all - free for the taking.

It is also easy to work with, does not require complicated precision assembly or special tools and the results are guaranteed to be unique since no two pieces of driftwood are the same.

Driftwood Furniture will show anyone how to construct unique and useful chairs, tables and benches, arbors and decorative objects. Each project is clearly illustrated and fully explained with black-and-white illustrations. The materials and tools required are listed separately so you'll have everything ready before you start. The results are fun, whimsical and durable.

The projects featured in Driftwood Furniture will appeal to novice and experienced woodworkers alike and include:

  • Garden benches
  • Arbors
  • Adirondack chairs
  • Sleigh
  • Patio table
  • Hanging Flowerbox
  • Wine rack
  • Chaise longue
  • Hooded chair, conversation chairs and more chairs
  • Wheelbarrow
  • And much more.

From beach to backyard, driftwood furniture is a welcome addition to any home.
