This is a wonderful book with beautiful photos and great ideas. It is not a how to book, but it does inspire!

I haven't finished reading it yet but so far love it. It has many photos along with a paragraph about why/how this works - the type of landscape and things to make sure you do/don't do. I am buying a copy for my sister for xmas.

I have recently become a big fan of the "Idea Book" series from Taunton. This one is no exception with plenty of ideas that cover every gamut of the back yard. Although this book is pushing 5 years old, luckily this subject matter is less susceptible to trends and fads, so the images and ideas are timeless. I recommend this to anyone that is looking for some ideas, whether it's sprucing up a zone, or small area, to the entire backyard. Only complaint is that there are a few over the top, million dollar mansion photos that just don't seem to fit with the subject. When you start measuring your backyard in acres...well then that's just a different story.

Questions & Answers

I have an indoor fireplace, can I open it up from the outside and have a functional indoor/outdoor fireplace?

Apr 25, 2008 by pattysemail2001

My livingroom fireplace is on an exterior wall that faces my pool. I've always wanted to break an opening from the outside of the house so it can function both as and indoor and outdoor fireplace. Is my idea possible?

Most construction/remodeling type companies offer free estimates (especially now with the housing market in decline) so I would call a few. Have them out and explain what you want. See if they say it's possible or not, or if the cost would be worth doing it anyway.

Sounds like a cool idea! I bet it's possible, with some sort of hinged-metal door on both sides. You'd have to be able to close it up on the inside if you were using it outside, I think, due to winds and the strong possibilty of your living room catching on fire. Even with this door-type thing, it would make your LR drafty in the winter probably.

But just ask, because someone, somewhere can probably figure out a way to do this. If you hear "it can't be done" from two companies, I'd try again because they may just not know how, or may not want to undertake such a unique task. Good luck to you, though, I hope it can be done!

How can I remove rust from an outdoor fireplace screen?

Apr 22, 2006 by inquiryminds

I have a Coleman outdoor fireplace with a metal screen that has become very rusty. I would like to paint it but I know that I have to remove ALL of the rust or it will return. I would order a new screen but it has been discontinued.

how about dont paint it or remove the rust......spray the screen with Pam cooking spray of even better rub it with lard or butter....it will turn a pleasant dark red to black color. there is really no paint other than a powder coat that will last....if you want to have a nice pretty black screen rub it down with warm beeswax and bake it in the oven at 500 degrees for a few hours....of course this will set off the smoke alarm and stink pretty bad.
