Simply Living Well

Julia Watkins Β· 2020
72/100
πŸ‘ Worth It

Julia Watkins gives you a genuinely useful room-by-room playbook for cutting waste and chemicals out of your home, and reviewers point to the styled photography and clear instructions as real strengths. It's dense enough that you'll want to sit with it rather than skim, but the DIY projects and package-free recipes are practical, not preachy. Worth It if you're ready to actually work a few of these swaps into your routine.
