Hundreds of clever tips, solutions, and easy ways to elevate every day, from America’s most trusted lifestyle authority, in one must-have handbookInside these pages Martha shares all her best good things—the original life hacks for the home—to make your life easier, more fun, more delicious, and more efficient. These practical tricks cover all areas of Martha’s domestic expertise, including decorating, organizing, homekeeping, cooking, entertaining, and celebrating. From clever ways to solve common problems (use file folder dividers to organize cutting boards and sheet pans in your cabinets) to time-saving tricks (keep a pail stocked with cleaning supplies for easy access and portability to stress reducers (color-code kids’ bathroom gear to make mornings less hectic), every one of these ideas will make you wonder, “Why didn’t I think of that?” Also included are ways to use what you have (a Parmesan cheese rind will add great flavor to soup), streamline your stuff (use certain kitchen tools for many different purposes), or just make life a little more luxurious (add elegance to your table with DIY place cards). Whether functional, delightful, or a little bit of both, these are the details that enliven and inspire every day—that’s a good thing! Read more

  • Book on cooking, crafts, housekeeping
Format: Hardcover
This book is a combination of household hints, cooking and recipes, and crafts. It is very interesting but not as good as her other books. Still, worth buying as you may find hints on decorating and such.

  • Very Informative and I purchased another to give.
Format: Hardcover
I saw the book advertised in MS Living magazine and purchased one for myself and another for a friend. I spent an entire day reading each page to make notes for my friend. It was very enjoyable taking notes and marking multiple pages. I have Martha’s first Good Things Book so YES I am a fan. The book is a nice size and well made. No jacket. My friend was overjoyed with the gift. ... show more

I'm a long time Martha fan, and have many of her books. This one is great as usual, and includes so many helpful tips and techniques for all kinds of things, and even recipes. Many of them are older previous issues of her magazine, and it's nice to have all this info arranged and one place. Love it ! ... show more

  • Most “Very Good Things” Waste Time
Format: Hardcover
I have never been a Martha Stewart devotee, but this book intrigued me. I’m glad I purchased a used copy. Most of the suggestions are DIY time-wasters in my opinion. They are for people who find projects for the purpose of finding projects. If that’s one of your hobbies, you’ll enjoy this book. For my lifestyle and interests, I prefer time-savers. Also, Martha includes tons, no exaggeration, of ideas that are about hanging and organizing your everyday possessions on your walls. I think this design technique looks messy, is distracting to the mind, and guarantees you’ll spend an inordinate amount of time dusting. No thanks. I gleaned two things from this book. First, I put all of my dish and hand soaps in decorative plastic containers. I love the neatness of the look, and it impresses visitors. Second, I was inspired to finally organize my pots and pans. Other than that, the book is somewhat interesting, and the photography is very well done. The kitchen and laundry sections were my favorite and held my attention the most. ... show more
