Synopsis

Everyone wants a home that is beautiful and clutter free. But most of us are unsure how to get there without breaking the bank. Popular interior designer Shannon Acheson takes the guesswork out of creating a lovely home. Home Made Lovely is a mind-set: 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

● brush up on hospitality with more than twenty actionable ideas that will make anyone feel welcome and loved in your home

In Home Made Lovely, Shannon meets you right where you are on your home-decorating journey, helping you share the peace of Christ with family members and guests.

Her happy place is in the suburbs of Toronto, where she is a Homebody with a capital H, a Jesus girl, a happy wife to Dean, and a homeschooling mom of three teenagers.

Goodreads review by Maria on January 24, 2022

I would have given it four stars... the pictures and layout were lovely, the topics flowed well, and all the tips were helpful... but there was some parts where there was some... let’s just call it sketchy theology. Not all of it. The parts on hospitality were good, but a few of the parts about bles......more
