With Martha Stewart's unparalleled expertise and signature style on every page, this is the ultimate guide to caring for one's home. From home office to bedroom and every room in between, readers will want this reference at their fingertips every time they'd like Stewart's opinion on any household task. 350 photos., Whether your home is small or large, an apartment in the city or a country cottage, it is a space that should be at once beautiful and livable. The key to that is managing the upkeep without feeling flustered. Until now, there has never been a comprehensive resource that not only tells how to care for your home and everything in it, but that also simplifies the process by explaining just when. With secrets from Martha Stewart for accomplishing the most challenging homekeeping tasks with ease, this detailed and comprehensive book is the only one you will need to help you keep your home looking its best, floor to ceiling, room by room. In Martha Stewart's Homekeeping Handbook , Martha shares her unparalleled expertise in home maintenance and care. Readable and practical-and graced with charts, sidebars, illustrated techniques, and personal anecdotes from Martha's decades of experience caring for her homes- this is far more than just a compendium of ways to keep your house clean. It covers everything from properly executing a living room floor plan to setting a formal table; from choosing HEPA filters to sealing soapstone countertops; from organizing your home office to polishing your silver and caring for family heirlooms. Martha Stewart' s Homekeeping Handbook is organized for clarity and maximum practicality: Room by Room covers the upkeep of the appliances, tools, furnishings, and surfaces found in each room, from the entryway to the kitchen, from the attic to the laundry room. Throughout the House instructs the reader on the proper ways to routinely clean and periodically maintain everything in the home, including dusting, sweeping, vacuuming, polishing, scrubbing, waxing and much more. Comfort and Safety focuses on techniques to ensure your home is running properly and safely, such as recognizing when to clean vents, fixing a leaky faucet, and eradicating pests. A-to-Z Materials Guide provides an invaluable resource that explains the unusual materials that many favorite objects are made of-from abalone to zinc-and how to care for them so they last. Encyclopedic yet friendly, Martha Stewart's Homekeeping Handbook is a seminal work-a must-have for everyone who wants a well-cared-for home that will endure for generations., Whether your home is small or large, an apartment in the city or a country cottage, it is a space that should be at once beautiful and livable.

    Shipping was quick and sandals were mailed in heavy-duty bubble envelope and were received in perfect condition. Their description was in pictures that showed the sandals clearly. I have fairly narrow feet and I’ve wanted to try a pair and the price was so reasonable, it was very beneficial to me. Many thanks to the seller!

    For Martha Completists Only

    This book could have been better if there had been some color photos included. MSL is known for its wonderful photography which enhances its compelling content. However, this very thick, heavy book lacks readability. It contains a lot of great and worthwhile information but it is presented in a dull and boring way. I suppose it's handy as a reference guide, but with everyone nowadays having computers, tablets, smartphones, etc. this info is available at your fingertips. No need to go wading through such a voluminous book, especially when there are no color photos at all, save for the cover. I guess the publisher wanted to save money, but in the end, people might not buy it for that reason so their cost-saving is counterproductive. This book is only for those who want every Martha Stewart ...

    Have a home or apartment?

    Love this book: classic! And even better signed by Martha herself! Every one should have a copy at home, whether in a house or apartment, large or small, urban or rural, great reference book to have for a lang time.

    A recent documentary about Martha Stewart made me curious about her books. This one is fantastic. I think a copy of this will become my signature housewarming gift.

    A great book making many jobs easier and earth friendly. My feeling is this book had never been used and was a terrific value.
