I actually loved this book. This came as a surprise to me as the introduction and the first chapter were clumsy and rushed. (and could have been tidied up). I was skeptical, but then got to the juicy parts of the book; where this all changed. I really liked the general feel of the book and LOVED the little history/world traditions folklore lessons throughout. SO interesting! Really good to have a guide for flowers/crystals/oils and colours and their meanings for the mood of the home. There are even some tips for  a restful sleep! Lovely book and would be a nice gift for a new homeowner.

I wasn't sure what this book was a first but it seems to be almost an encyclopedia that is fragmented.  I do wish this book had been more cohesive for me but it does provide a ton of information and would be perfect for anyone wanting to incorporate more magical aspects into their home and home life.
