Home Made Lovely is a mindset: Decorating should be about those who live there, rather than making your home into a magazine-worthy spread. Shannon walks you through how to:

  • Decorate in a way that suits your family's real life
  • Declutter in seven simple steps
  • Perform a house blessing to dedicate your home to God
  • Be thankful for your current home and what you already have

Bad narrator

This would’ve been an excellent book if it weren’t for the narrator. She was all wrong for this book. She was kind of monotone & bored. She was breathy & kind of flaky sounding. She’d be perfect for a meditation or hypnotherapy book. The book itself had great points & tips for clearing out the home (both physically & spiritually- how to bless the home was great), assessing the space & discovering what your style & preferences are before you go shopping, how to decorate, & even a chapter on how to practice hospitality in your new space. She has pointers on how to decorate on a budget, & things to avoid or to try out. I’ve read a lot of books in this genre, but I heard new tips in this book. I recommend the book, but just don’t listen to this version.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
