My new book arrived last week.
It follows on the footsteps of The Gentle Art of Domesticity: Stitching, Baking, Nature, Art & the Comforts of Home
by Jane Brocket, which is one of my desert island books. I run to it again and again for inspiration on all things domestic.

Kirstie Allsopp is one of my favorite TV presenters.
I love her style and her accent, and the way she gets involved with all her projects.
This book offers insights into Ms. Allsopp's finds for her Channel 4 TV show in an inspiring, delightful to read and easy to follow format.
There is everything from crochet to knitting, to making pillows or a lampshade,
and how to make a rag rug.
My mother and grandmother used to make these.
How to decorate a cake
And also lovely photography and room by room ideas to inspire.
If you are making your list for Santa, make sure you ask him for Kirstie's Homemade Home
