Summary

In the same winning format as The Home Organizing Workbook comes a guide to making a home clean and safe. Common health threats exist in any modern home, from toxic laundry detergents to plastic food containers that leach chemicals. Room by room, this visually appealing and informative book outlines practical, easy-to-follow steps to eliminate or reduce them. The spiral-bound format includes tabbed, at-a-glance sections that outline short-term projects, such as replacing polyester-cotton bedsheets with organic linens, and bigger projects, such as replacing germ-harbouring wall-to-wall carpeting with natural-fibre area rugs. Gorgeous photographs prove that a healthy home can also be a stylish one.
