From Booklist:

Dierks' book describes how to create nearly 100 designs. Although there are only a few illustrations that actually show the various stages of assembly, most of the projects should be possible for anyone willing to spend some time gathering together the tools and materials and then getting busy with home decorations. A color photograph depicts each of the many wreaths and other projects in final form--from formal spirals of evergreen branches and an edible table centerpiece to a loosely draped herbal kitchen swag, and toys made up into a colorful garland for a child's room. Alice Joyce

From Library Journal:

Wreaths, although they have a long association with the holidays, are often made in the summer or fall, when raw materials are the most abundant. This book includes living wreaths and ones made from nonplant material. An introductory section describes basic materials, followed by the wreaths themselves, beautifully photographed in a variety of settings. All will make excellent holiday decorations. This book is similar in content to Ellen Spector Platt's The Ultimate Wreath Book (LJ 2/15/96); libraries owning Platt may choose to pass on this.
