Homemaking Heaven: Make it Home: Reading by the fire

Reading by the fire

Darker evenings, warm fires, cool clear nights and hot chocolate. The chair by the mantle is never empty; the nook by the lamp is even more cramped than normal, overflowing with books. Books that are planning ahead for Christmas, books with ideas for one pot meals, books about warmth and comfort, all looked out and very well thumbed. Books to shelter within and let me dream.

Welcome to Homemaking Heaven: Make it Home

Homemaking, put quite simply is a form of art...I dont mean this in a self righteous way at all. I only mean that we should really aim to take care of our homely enviroment and not look down upon those who wish to do it.

I feel-or maybe i should say, I certainly have witnessed- occasions where women are too quick to turn on each other and put down the choices some make which too closely resemble choices our Grandmothers made, or paths they had no option but to follow.

I welcome anyone who takes the time to read my rambley, witless, chatter, but most importantly I welcome anyone who feels the same! We should be proud we can make our own decisions, and mine is to follow all happhazard forays into the world of homemaking and crafting.
