Homemakers: A Domestic Handbook for the Digital Generation | Brit Morin
3 posts | 4 read | 1 to read
From Silicon Valleys Martha Stewart comes a new manifesto for the modern homemaker in the digital age. Over the past three generations, the rules of homemaking and our very notions of what a homemaker is and does have radically changed. We are still a nation of makers, but we are crafting and creating beyond the home, in both the analog and digital worlds. And in the next ten years, making and homemaking will evolve further. Tomorrows women will find themselves actually manufacturing everything from decor to clothing, from right inside their homes. In Homemakers, Brit Morin, founder of the wildly popular lifestyle brand and website Brit + Co., reimagines homemaking for the twenty-first century. While todays generation thrives in the virtual world, they like to work and create in the physical world. Morin inspires you to combine the best of analog and digital, to help you reconnect with your inner creative child-the one who used to love to draw, to build, and to play-to make your home a more creative, functional, and beautiful place. Full of captivating, colorful spreads, step-by-step DIYs, tips, and unique ideas, Homemakers explores a range of domestic skills room by room in a house, from cooking advice in the kitchen to health and beauty tips in the bathroom. Simple, beautiful, and stylish, it offer ideas for creative living to encourage and enable the digital generation to make.

1. I prefer to call myself a Homemaker, as I do more than looking after 2 small boys!
2. Working in the restaurant of a BHS at 18.
3. Worst job was working for the debt collection department of an energy company. I just wasn't as ruthless as other team members. Hard telling people keeping their kids warm is seen as a 'luxury'. It started my emotional breakdown. 😬
4. Working for myself, or at Beamish Museum!

This book was pretty all-inclusive on the homemaking front, covering recipes, furniture, clothing, sewing, and everything in between. I‘ve read dozens of this type of book and still got some great ideas.

By day, I teach engineering to middle schoolers, and by night, I attempt to clean my house and raise my kids. I really enjoyed the maker mentality this book had, and lists of apps that I had no idea existed that seemed really cool.
