Recipes, DIY projects, and inspiration for a beautiful and low-waste life, from the creator of @simply.living.well on Instagram
In this timely and motivational guide, author Julia Watkins shares rituals, recipes, and projects for living simply and sustainably at home. For every area of your household—kitchen, cleaning, wellness, bath, and garden—Julia shows you how to eliminate wasteful packaging, harmful ingredients, and disposable items. Practical checklists outline easy swaps (instead of disposable sponges, opt for biodegradable sponges or Swedish dishcloths; choose a bamboo toothbrush over a plastic one) and sustainable upgrades for common household tools and products. Projects include scrap apple cider vinegar, wool dryer balls, kitchen bowl covers and cloth produce bags, non-toxic dryer sheets, all-purpose citrus cleaner, herbal tinctures and balms, and more, plus recipes for package-free essentials like homemade nut milk, hummus, ketchup, salad dressings, and veggie stock.

Excellent, Fabulous, Terrific Book
If you want great ideas and enjoy natural home remedies, healthy recipes, natural cleaning supplies, along with skin care and dentals care and more, then you have to RUSH out and purchase this book. I guarantee youâre going to love it. I first borrowed this book from the library, I was amazed with the information and how easy it would be to make all of these natural medicines and health products for just a small amount of money. The book has many pages full of information. No way I could copy all of it, so i decide to purchase it. Iâm extremely happy i did. Itâs a great addition to my book shelf.

Thoughtful and Inspiring ideas for a more healthful and eco-minded lifestyle
I love this book because it provides practical and easy to understand ways to improve our personal health and habits, while helping the planet at the same time. The clear and common sense narration helps the reader learn new ways to replace the everyday, taken-for granted habits we all have and the products we all use. Her suggestions are in many ways reminiscent of the simpler times of our grandmothers and great-grandmothers, before the age of mass-production, processed foods, and engineered chemical products. The beautiful photographs, well-organized chapters, easy-to-follow ideas, and thoughtful encourgaement make this book both clarifying and gratifying to readers who want to start to improve the quality of their lives and the future of the environment. Each of us can begin to make a difference.

Canât recommend this enough
This book is amazing! I started making my own cleaners and looking for ways to be more eco friendly. This book offers easy solutions to being less wasteful. So far every thing I have tried was worked so well. This offers a variety of cleaning products and recipes as well.

One of my favorite books about Simple Living
Iâve been trying to simplify my life. I donât want to spend every minute cleaning up things I donât actually need. I crave slower living, and want my kids to grow up with that as the norm. This book is beautiful, contains wonderful cleaning recipes, simple food recipes, and low waste beauty and health recipes. I reference this book often, and continue to be glad I purchased it. Iâm very much looking forward to her new gardening.

I love the easy instructions on practical living.
Lovely tissue paper definitely recommend. Only thing is online it didnât show the gold dots until it arrived. It does not look bad but would be best if there was a picture showing this. –
Seen this book in tkmaxx, found it cheaper on Amazon ( great!) What can I say, a great book with plenty of things to make from home and it being all natural. Would recommend this book.

Mi piace tantissimo l’approccio alla vita naturale dell’autrice, ho anche un altro suo libro, dà tanti consigli validi ed interessanti per una vita più sostenibile, ricco di progetti corredati da belle fotografie, attingerò spesso da questo libro, peccato che non sia tradotto in italiano per una consultazione più immediata
