This book was mostly pictures and it did motivate me to reorganize my yarn stash, but I didn't get anything from it that I couldn't have gotten from their Instagram. Worth it from the library, but not something I'd buy.

I was curious if there was more to be known here after watching their show. It was a quick, chipper read highlighting client work and especially helpful visuals.
A helpful read if you’re not interested in the show and lends to a more practical look at organising.
After The Lazy Genius and Myquillyn Smith’s look at creating a home and systems that work for a family, this fell a bit flat but still appreciated their methodology. Can’t wait to organise the rest of my life.

A fun read, but I can’t use a majority of the tips in here bc I’m not rich.

Another pretty disappointing Home Edit book with all the same problems as the first- no before and after shots, unrealistic spaces and belongings. Somehow I found it even less applicable to my own life than the first-- (How, oh how, will I organize my tour bus/ giant shoe warehouse?!) because there were fewer weird little nooks like the ones in my weird little house. But as an example of "celebrities own some really beautiful objects" this could be fun to flip through. It's just not what I was looking for atm.

I love a good organization project so it is no surprise I enjoyed reading this book. It's not really much of a How To guide - it basically comes down to their 80/20 rule (only use 80% of your space so you have some breathing room) and when in doubt use the rainbow to line things up.

The pictures are gorgeous of course, but that’s the most positive thing I have to say about this book. I’ve been wanting to read the Home Edit books for so long because I absolutely loved their show on Netflix. This book felt like it was more about name-dropping than providing actual practical solutions. I’ll stick with watching their show instead.

This book had more concrete ideas on how to actually use the organizing principles of The Home Edit in various situations. It really took the principles of their whole system and gave some more examples. I would have loved before pictures in addition to the after photos. I would also have liked to see a bit more variety where not everyone is in modern homes with pure white shelving. Overall, there is a lot of practical that can be taken out of this book.
