Using a room-by-room approach, it allows the reader to discover traditional housekeeping secrets and recipes for every room in the house. Readers can learn to make beeswax polish, candles and soap scented with essential oils, or how to grow, harvest and preserve herbs for culinary use or to perfume the home. The book also helps readers to: keep the house sparkling clean and smelling good; rejuvenate furniture with easy-care tips; restore all surfaces to their former quality; make safe and natural cleansers; grow herbs for a multitude of home-care purposes; and use everyday household ingredients for all requirements.
