4 of 4 people found the following review helpful. Gorgeous book; useful content.By WithBowsOnTopIm going to start by saying how gorgeous this book is inside and out. Nearly every page showcases vintage-looking prints (gorgeous floral wallpaper; fun polka dot designs; etc). Just flipping through the book is a lot of fun. Now on to the actual content. The book is divided into 4 sections - Home Sweet Home; Food and Drink; Style; and Living. Home Sweet Home section contains tips on decorating your home; growing a garden and offers advice on housework. Food and Drink section has some great recipes that I cannot wait to try. While I was flipping through the recipes; I noticed that many of them dont ask for hard to find ingredients; which is a huge plus for me. Style section offers key tips on what to know about vintage and goes through different eras (a page or two on each - Edwardian; 1920s; 1930s; etc.). Living section offers advice on how to bargain when shopping at flea markets; how to host a party; how to pack for a vacation; etc. Overall; this book offers a great deal of advice that personally I found useful. And it doesnt hurt that this book looks gorgeous displayed at home.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Four StarsBy Granny AliasVery interesting book.
