![]() ![]() ![]() I gave it as a gift more times than I can count. This was the first Emilie Barnes book I purchased and I just loved it. The Spirit of Loveliness: Bringing Beauty, Creativity, and Order to Your Life This is her Amazon author page if you want to see more. Here’s some that I have and then a sampling (and I do mean sampling) of what else she wrote in case you aren’t familiar with her works. I thought of her today and decided to collect her books from around the house to gain some fresh inspiration this weekend. Actually, it’s a good thing she wrote before blogs because now we have all of her lovely works in actual books we can enjoy instead of losing them to the noise of the online world. She was the mega blogger before their were blogs. Her ideas were attainable for regular Christian women. ![]() ![]() She interested me far more than someone like Martha Stewart because Emilie Barnes seemed like such a real and down-to-earth person that I could more easily relate to. During the 1980s and 1990s she was a prolific and very popular Christian author who wrote lovely and encouraging books on making a home, family, home organization, saving time, etc. If you are younger, you might not be familiar with her at all. If you are over a certain age, Emilie Barnes will be a familiar name to you and this post might be like a walk down memory lane that sends you scouring the bookshelves of your home for your own Emilie Barnes books. ![]()
