This book of DIY has a huge variety of projects for inside and outside gardening. There are photos to follow along with the instructions. I found the written instructions are clear and not confusing at all. As a beginner gardener, this will be a must have when it publishes.

This is a surprisingly diverse bunch of projects for your home, garen and homestead. They are all illustrated with simple drawings and they range from super simple to complex. Not all are woodworking, though most are. There are instructions for everything from nesting boxes to picnic tables to rooms built under the stairs to macrame plant holders. A lot of them were beyond my skills but it was a great assortment. Do note that the instructions are quite simple and sparse, which can be good or bad depending on your knowledge and preferences.

I read a temporary digital copy of this book for review.

Build It Simple was a pretty good book with some good ideas for DIY projects for the home and garden. There were a bunch of useful patterns ranging from very simple to more advanced projects. I would say this book does not really seem like it would be good for beginners because all of the plans are fairly loose plans without detailed instruction. However, if you are someone is already knows the basics of building and following a plan or blueprint, you will find these projects useful. Overall, it is a good book more for ideas then detailed plans.
