About this product

Product Information

Whether your home is small or large, an apartment in the city or a country cottage, it is a space that should be at once beautiful and livable. The key to that is managing the upkeep without feeling flustered. Until now, there has never been a comprehensive resource that not only tells how to care for your home and everything in it, but that also simplifies the process by explaining just when. With secrets from Martha Stewart for accomplishing the most challenging homekeeping tasks with ease, this detailed and comprehensive book is the only one you will need to help you keep your home looking its best, floor to ceiling, room by room. In Martha Stewart's Homekeeping Handbook , Martha shares her unparalleled expertise in home maintenance and care. Readable and practical-and graced with charts, sidebars, illustrated techniques, and personal anecdotes from Martha's decades of experience caring for her homes- this is far more than just a compendium of ways to keep your house clean. It covers everything from properly executing a living room floor plan to setting a formal table; from choosing HEPA filters to sealing soapstone countertops; from organizing your home office to polishing your silver and caring for family heirlooms. Martha Stewart' s Homekeeping Handbook is organized for clarity and maximum practicality: Room by Room covers the upkeep of the appliances, tools, furnishings, and surfaces found in each room, from the entryway to the kitchen, from the attic to the laundry room. Throughout the House instructs the reader on the proper ways to routinely clean and periodically maintain everything in the home, including dusting, sweeping, vacuuming, polishing, scrubbing, waxing and much more. Comfort and Safety focuses on techniques to ensure your home is running properly and safely, such as recognizing when to clean vents, fixing a leaky faucet, and eradicating pests. A-to-Z Materials Guide provides an invaluable resource that explains the unusual materials that many favorite objects are made of-from abalone to zinc-and how to care for them so they last. Encyclopedic yet friendly, Martha Stewart's Homekeeping Handbook is a seminal work-a must-have for everyone who wants a well-cared-for home that will endure for generations.

    For Martha Completists Only

    This book could have been better if there had been some color photos included. MSL is known for its wonderful photography which enhances its compelling content. However, this very thick, heavy book lacks readability. It contains a lot of great and worthwhile information but it is presented in a dull and boring way. I suppose it's handy as a reference guide, but with everyone nowadays having computers, tablets, smartphones, etc. this info is available at your fingertips. No need to go wading through such a voluminous book, especially when there are no color photos at all, save for the cover. I guess the publisher wanted to save money, but in the end, people might not buy it for that reason so their cost-saving is counterproductive. This book is only for those who want every Martha Stewart ...

  • Recommended reference book for your home!

    I purcahsed this book because it seemed like a good value for the amount of info it had contained. Of course, it's got the Martha Stewart name, and she's the queen bee of all things household. I love the amount of information that the book has in it- I used it the day I got it! While there are many household topics covered, there were a few things I was looking for that weren't in the book, but I guess it can't cover every single little thing. It would be nice if there were color photos, but I guess that doesn't matter too much- the info inside is worth more than color photos. I have several other household cleaning books, but this one covers more than the rest of them combined. It has details and is pretty explanitory when it comes to describing how to clean certain things, and I ...

  • We love it!

    This is a wonderful resource for anything you need to do in your home. It is written for anyone no matter what stage of life you are in, whether it is just moving out and you've never taken care of a home; to you never quite knew how to do that in the first place! I was at first thrown off by how simple it is, but after spending some time reading it I've learned that this book is chock full of everyday practical tips, checklists, remodeling advice, and tips that only Martha can give! The latest tip that blew me away was in the linen closet, put the whole sheet set inside its matching pillow case to save space and keep organized! I often thumb through it just to read. As someone who has never had anyone teach me the ins and outs of caring for my home, I am grateful. My husband and our ...

  • Encyclopedia of Homekeeping

    What can I say! This book has everything you could possibly ever need to know about the art of homekeeping. It is a 744 page hardcover book that should be a must for everyone who maintains a home no matter if that home is a tiny apartment or large house. The book takes you through every room in your home and explains in great detail how to maintain that space from dusting to maintenance. EVERYTHING is discussed from plumbing to electricity to pest control to emergency preparedness, even living with your pet. There is even a chapter that talks about moving. The book is brilliantly outlined and illustrated. What makes this book really special for Martha Stewart lovers is the fact that each new chapter begins with Martha discussing that room and reminiscing about life in her different ...
