The Woman's Book of Household Management: Contains Everything a Woman Ought to Knowby: Florence Jack January 10, 2007 Best Selling > Books > Household Hints |

My copy of The Woman's Book was published in 1911 and weighs nearly 3lb - this represents a serious number of things to know about. There are chapters on kitchen work, servants, cookery, table appointments, the linen cupboard (including price lists), dress (including trousseau and spending an allowance wisely), etiquette, millinery, holidays, pets, children, laundry, and housework. The outstanding part, in my opinion, is the 10 chapters devoted to careers for women: everything from the civil service to arts and crafts via social work and teaching in the Colonies (with advice on a suitable wardrobe). There is also a section on the women's suffrage movement, and a list of women's clubs in London. Lots of small black and white illustrations dotted ... Read More:

Small Spaces: Stylish Ideas for Making More of Less in the Homeby: Azby Brown September 01, 1996 Best Selling > Books > Household Hints |
||
|
This is an excellent book with some unique ideas. The sections on how to zone open plan living spaces and clever ideas to locate storage are useful to everyone, no matter the size of your home. Some of the ideas, especially in the kitchen section, are now making there way in to mainstream kitchen design so are not as revolutionary as they would have been when the book was written.
My main criticism of the book, and the reason it gets four starts, is it desperately needs updating. Although the ideas are just as relevant today the photographs of dingy 80's interiors and references to storing 'walkmans' and 'cassette tapes' make the book feel dated. Azby's other book 'The very small home' looks at interiors more than actual ... Read More: >>More Details |

Simple Home Solutions: Good Things with Martha Stewart Livingby: Martha Stewart Living Magazine July 01, 2004 Best Selling > Books > Household Hints |

This book is beautiful. I have given it three stars (and considered 4) just for the joy of flicking through it. However, unfortunately there are not many actual real solutions on offer.

This book is terrific. I initially thought this book contained quite a bit of padding, but I decided to cut straight to the chase and so used its ideas to organise my desk area. Now I wish I'd had it years ago. Before buying this book my wife and I were thinking of having our loft or garage converted into living space as we had run out of room in our home. This book has convinced us that we don't need to, saving thousnads and thousands of pounds for us. If this sounds too good to be true, read some of the other reviews.

Unless your house has piles of clutter in every room don't bother with this book. Because that's about all she tells you, over and over in almost every chapter is how to sort and dispose of clutter. I really didn't find it to be of much use at all in terms of the best ways to actually go about cleaning your house. And her ideas about shopping lists are really strange. She says that keeping a shopping list doesn't work because teenagers won't write things down when they use them up. Instead you are supposed to make lists of every grocery item you ever buy and then photocopy them. Then people are supposed to go through the printed lists and circle what they have used up. Exactly why a teenager will do this if they won't just write something on a list ... Read More:
