Books like Beautiful homemaking by Charlene Gardner Johnson

"Give your home a "happiness makeover" with the more than 90 DIY projects, decorating tips, and inspiring ideas in this first-ever home decor book from the creators of the mega-popular style blog A Beautiful Mess."--

This is a concise, outstanding book encouraging women to appreciate their role as homemakers. Attitude and perspective go a long way in enjoying a homemaker's role. This is one of my favorite books. "It's popular for the modern woman to resent being a housewife," says Ella May Miller. Many seem to feel that it is a second-rate profession. Mrs. Miller goes on to say that dissatisfaction is causing unrest and discontent in many homes today, not excluding many Christian homes. Homemakers are taking second looks at their job. Many are giving it up for "greener pastures," they say. Being a homemaker can be a rewarding and fruitful task, and especially enjoyable when the homemaker joins hands with God. This task takes devotion, patience, and time to do well. From her "Heart to Heart" radio program, which originates at Mennonite Broadcasts in Harrisonburg, Virginia, Mrs. Miller has compiled some of her talks into Happiness is Homemaking. This book will give you inspiration, insight into homemaking, and a new, refreshing understanding of your homemaking task. In twenty chapters, she talks of creativity, identity, prayer, fatigue, tension, mistakes, love, and other important topics relative to homemaking. - Back cover.

"I would define 'hidden art' as the art found in the ordinary areas of everyday life. Each person has, I believe, some talent which is unfulfilled in some hidden area of his being -- a talent which could be expressed and developed." That is how Edith Schaeffer defines her theme in this fascinating and unusual book. The Hidden Art of Homemaking will appeal immediately to anyone who believes that the place in which we live needs to be a center of meaningful living and personal enrichment. - Back cover.
