I wasn't really excited about this book. It wasn't what I had expected. It's actually about how we find artistic expression in homemaking (fabrics, colors, flowers, etc). Since I'm not really artistic it wasn't for me.

"I would define 'hidden art' as the art found in the ordinary areas of everyday life....." Edith Schaeffer

I did not like this book but it was my own fault. I thought it was about practical homemaking skills - cooking, cleaning, etc. and it's more about crafty stuff like flower decorating, art work, fabrics and I don't really see that as part of practical home management.

No other word to describe this book...


Boring.... I bought this book because it came soooo recommended but I couldn't wait to pass it on to someone else. I talked with one of my friends that also bought it. She totally agreed with me. It is just boring. I don't know why this book was republished. Mrs. Schaeffer has other books that are better!

I agree with the other review I've seen here. This was a boring book and I feel like all the other descriptions, etc. were misleading. This isn't the book I thought it would be.
