Cloth Napkins and Real Dishes

It’s all too easy to skip the niceties of a beautiful life in the name of ease and convenience. Sadly, I see many people opting for paper plates and paper towels rather than real dishes and cloth napkins. But it really isn’t that difficult to set a cozy supper table. It just takes a bit…

Create a Homemaker’s Puttering Basket

March 10, 2017 By Deanna Piercy 17 Comments

The Wisdom of Grandma

LWD Giant Household Organization Roundup

January 25, 2017 By Deanna Piercy 8 Comments

I’m sure I’m not the only one who dreams of a perfectly organized home. Beautifully designed storage areas, everything in its place, “nothing that you do not know to be useful, or believe to be beautiful.” While I’m not a minimalist, I DO want my belongings to be purposefully chosen and well-organized.
