The Home Edit: Feel-Good Organizing

This “book” is really a magazine, with a few different articles, tons of pictures, and some ads.It is just under 100 pages.The magazine starts with a short introductory paragraph from Clea and Joanna. Then there is a section of organization ideas from fans of the show, and then a section showcasing various colorful “ROYGBIV-inspired” products. Next is an article about places to visit in Nashville, and then an article about organizing pantries. There is a sneak peek of Season 2 of their show, some general organization tips, and a look into life at Clea's house. There is a “Beach Beauty” section featuring Molly Sims, an article about organizing closets, and a section all about choosing and installing the best wallpaper. There are sections with advice about storage bins and containers, and storage carts. At the end is a Q and A with a makeup artist that discusses organization challenges in his field. There are also a few different recipes throughout the magazine.Overall, I thought that this magazine had a few nice tips and suggestions for creating a more organized and visually appealing environment; but $15 for one magazine with less than 100 pages seems a little overpriced. Because of all the pictures, ads, and other random filler; there are really only maybe 40 pages or so of information at most. If this were maybe $5 I could see it being worth the cost, but at $15 it seems a little silly to me. This is just my personal opinion though; and maybe if you are a rabid diehard fan of these two you might feel like it is worth the cost....

It was a beautiful magazine, but the The Home Edit team seems to have gotten so successful that they think that everyone owns 5,000 square foot homes with his and her walk in closets complete with islands, gift wrapping stations, and amazing floor to ceiling walk in pantries the size of my entire living area. What about us pedestrians living in the real world?

I was excited to get this, but I was disappointed. It’s all great if you have a large home or area. Not for the average person. More of celebrity inspired then practical.

This was the biggest waste of money. There was nothing in there for the average homeowner.

UPDATE: Just looked at the magazine copy at Walmart. The print quality of the magazine purchased from the store was so much better than the one I got from Amazon. Might be worth it to just get it from a store. Same price but the store copy has crisper and more focused print and the pictures are clearer.Let me first say that I am an avid Home Edit fan. I own all of Clea and Joanna’s books, watched their Netflix series, follow them on Instagram and have purchased their merchandise from The Container Store as well as Walmart. They have always put out quality products, so I was excited to order the magazine. I was so disappointed upon receiving it from Amazon. It appears that the publisher didn’t use quality paper for the inside pages of magazine so the print and some of the pictures seem almost too faint and not very focused. Some pages almost look like the font isn’t dark enough for the articles. Maybe I had a bum copy, but given the 14.99 price I was hoping they would have the nice glossy pages and high resolution photos/fonts like you would at least see in a supermarket magazine. I enjoyed the content of the magazine, it’s mainly the print quality that I think the publisher Meredith might have tried to cut corners on. Hoping they get this fixed for their next issue.

This magazine had nothing new in it if you were watching the tv series. I feel like the average homeowner didn't get a variety of usage of product, or many examples of what a small pantry, bath might look like. Nothing about Clea. Not to mention how I'm tired of listening to Joanna belittle the mess before she makes it perfect.

The Home Edit ladies, Clea and Joanna, have provided a blueprint for how to organize and manage almost everything in our spaces. I'm in love with what I hope to be many more editions. The articles are timely and relevant and accompanied by beautiful photos. That's always my issue with some publications, they don't put in enough pictures. And let's not forget about everyone's favorite helper/scarf donut tying/thinking outside the box BFF - Sumner! She's also has a feature in this edition. Kudos!!

Sure it is nice to have but I don’t see what all the hype is about. I find it expensive for what you get.

I have the books, watch the Netflix series, follow the IG page but was really disappointed in this magazine. I give it 3/5 overall because I don’t want to give it a failing grade but if a second edition were to come out I would not purchase

Love the book bought all of them. I wish that it was bigger with much more pictures and info

Its only pictures and glamour and sparkly etc .. no real information on organization. If you are looking for organization tips etc you should better watch their show on Netflix, but this book/magazine will not help you in any way.
