Let’s talk about House Love: A Joyful Guide to Cleaning, Organizing, and Loving the Home You’re In, a recent release by Twin Cities author Patric Richardson.
Did you notice the word “joyful” in the title? Richardson, author of the bestselling book Laundry Love, is back with a new book. Now, he’s asking us to make a paradigm shift: from thinking of cleaning as a chore to thinking of it as a privilege and something we do out of love for ourselves and our families.
He’s written an absolute gem that includes cleaning, organizing and decorating tips. It also contains entertaining anecdotes and playlists for each room of the house. There are tips for deep cleaning when you have the time, and recommendations for a 10-minute refresh when you don’t.
Whatever your decorating style, Richardson tells readers to run with it. He encourages and inspires you to create a home in which you’ll live joyfully, a home that exudes your personality. His kind and optimistic nature comes through in his writing. You’ll feel like you’re receiving cleaning and organizing pointers from a dear friend. I enjoyed it immensely!
