Surprise! I have a newly reformatted book coming out mid‑August called Simply Home. Simply Home brings together two of my popular paperback titles into one attractive hardback: Simple Organizing and Simple Decorating. You can pre‑order the new edition now — it officially releases August 15.
As an author working with a publisher, I’ve learned they consider different formats to reach varied audiences and price points. My original contract included several titles in different sizes and bindings. Over time the publisher suggested combining two of the original paperbacks into a single, durable hardback to make the content accessible in a fresh format.
Harvest House approached me with the idea to create a two‑in‑one hardback called Simply Home, which pairs Simple Decorating and Simple Organizing in one cohesive volume. The new edition keeps the spirit and most of the helpful photos and tips from the paperbacks, with a few updates and new material sprinkled in.
This edition is playful and practical: turn it one way and you have Simple Organizing; flip it and you have Simple Decorating.
If you already own one or both of the original paperbacks, you’ll recognize familiar projects and photos. The hardback edition is ideal if you want a single, elegant volume for your shelf or a thoughtful gift for a new homeowner, someone moving, or a client. It’s also a convenient option for anyone who missed the paperbacks and would like both books in a single handsome package.
Simply Home offers useful organizing and decorating tips, clear photos, and ideas that remain practical and inspiring. It’s a sweet gift for housewarmings, realtors, or anyone who appreciates approachable home design and organization.
