Simple Secrets to a Beautiful Home

The feature book of September for me has definitely got to be 'Simple Secrets to a Beautiful Home: Creating a Place You and Your Family Will Love'. Though it had me stall reading several times because I was simply too tired to take it all in, I thoroughly enjoyed the read which was about the spirit of making a house a home without being specifically focussed on household management, decorating, or how to make a cottage garden. No, instead it was a refreshing natural exploration of how to find your own way to make a welcoming environment through the use of creativity, femininity, stillness, hospitality, celebration and Godliness.

It also addresses two key areas of the home that I am truly passionate about - the kitchen and the garden. For me the kitchen and garden are not just the two places that I believe go hand in hand with a beautiful home but also provide an active demonstration of care for our world we have been entrusted with.

It is a great read for anyone who is in that process of setting up their home and are looking for the inspiration to help them make their home have a personal flair that reflects those who live in it.
