About this ebook
This is a practical guide that will enable readers to create the homes that reflect the"soul and substance of the people who live within." Designing your home is not all about the style, but the story. Once readers grasp the idea, their designing efforts will become fun and will free them from being immobilized. It is full of inspiring insights with anecdotes from Joanna Gaines’ design career. She features beautiful photography including pictures of her home, as well as sketches. Gaines uses her farmhouse as an example and other homes as well to give her readers an idea of what a home with a character means.
Homebody is written by Gaines who co-authored the New York Times bestselling The Magnolia Story with her husband Chip. She also wrote another Times bestseller, the cookbook Magnolia Table.
