About this item
From "Silicon Valley's Martha Stewart" comes a new manifesto for the modern homemaker in the digital age.Over the past three generations, the rules of homemaking and our very notions of what a homemaker is and does have radically changed. We are still a nation of makers, but we are crafting and creating beyond the home, in both the analog and digital worlds. And in the next ten years, "making" and "homemaking" will evolve further. Tomorrow's women will find themselves actually manufacturing everything from decor to clothing, from right inside their homes.In Homemakers, Brit Morin, founder of the wildly popular lifestyle brand and website Brit Co., reimagines homemaking for the twenty-first century. While today's generation thrives in the virtual world, they like to work and create in the physical world.
