About this ebook
"Home," writes Susannah Seton. "There are few words that carry such potent feelings. It's the place where we can let down our hair, loosen our clothes, put our feet up. It's where those we love most share in the ordinariness and extraordinariness of our days. It's the place many of us spend lifetimes trying to get back to. As the proverb goes, it's where our hearts are. Simple Pleasures of the Home is for everyone who has the nesting impulse - from passionate and accomplished home decorators to anyone who simply enjoys domestic downtime. Organized room by room, the book includes dozens of simple activities for bringing the family together, creative ideas for pampering yourself and loved ones, easy-to-follow instructions for making aromatherapy products, tips for candlemaking, and comfort-food recipes As the proverb goes, it's where our hearts are."

Author
Susannah Seton
Susannah Seton is the author of the Simple Pleasures series, which includes titles such as Simple Pleasures of the Home, Simple Pleasures for the Holidays and 365 Simple Pleasures. When Seton was young, she would listen to her grandparents tell stories of when they were young, and the fun they would have even though all the stories were based around the simplest actions: new recipes they would make in a new house, road trips, early mornings by the water, and so much more. This made Seton realize that it wasn’t what we had, but our mindsets that made life enjoyable. Seton began writing the Simple Pleasures series with one goal in mind: to remind her readers that even the smallest things in life can bring us immense joy. She currently lives in Berkeley, California, with her husband and daughter.
