Fair Lady

"[We are] becoming so concerned about having perfect figures, or straight A’s, or professional status, or even absolute motherly success that we are being torn from our true selves. We often worry so much about pleasing and performing for others that we lose our own uniqueness, that full and relaxed acceptance of ourselves as a person of worth and individuality."

In this section of The Homemaking Cottage, we are focused on women. Ideas here include taking care of yourself, pampering, emotional health, dressing up, stories and poems for the soul, and so much more. Don't forget to take time for yourself in the midst of running a household and any other time and attention robbers that face women today.
