Average Customer Ratings:
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.

CUSTOMER REVIEWS:
Now I make my bed while still in it - save tons on cleaning products too -
Two suggestions alone made my life easier. First, after making my bed using Martha's method, all it takes in the morning is a tug at one side, folding the sheet over the covers, then doing the same on the other (one I get out of), fluffing the pillows and I am done! Second, the vinegar and water solution is truly the best for cleaning laminate floors - no longer any residue build up left by commercial cleaners - and costs just pennies.
Plus the daily, weekly etc. schedules for the various tasks are practical and easily adaptable to personal lifestyles and regional climate needs. Last, but not least, the intro may be longer than is customary, but I strongly suggest reading it first to get a complete picture of Martha's philosophy for this book. I bought this copy as a gift for one of my granddaughters, after she saw my copy and expressed interest in borrowing it. This truly is a homekeeping book for all ages and stages in one's life.

Martha Stewart's Homekeeping Guide -
I've given this book twice as a bridal shower gift. Both girls said it will be their bible. One is now married for a year and has already referred to this book three times for helpful information.
It's just basic stuff - 
I bought this book because somebody suggested it to me while attending a bridal shower. I was a little disappointed. It's just very basic stuff that you can easily find it online by Google it. I have to admit that it is a very nice present for newlyweds.
Everything you need to know -
I bought Martha Stewart's Homekeeping Handbook for my daughter's bridal shower, and though I haven't read it myself, I can say that she is enchanted by it. She even reads it when she meant to be involved in preparations for the wedding. The night we were talking on the phone and she wanted to get back to the section on "five types of kitchen towel weaves" that I realized Martha had a whole lot more advice to give her than I did. We both believe that "a cat can look at a king"--i.e., we don't have to be like Martha in every particular, but we can enjoy watching her at her domestic best, and she inspires us to be a bit more conscious of making a house a genuine home.
