Good Things in 2006


Martha Stewart's New Year

The January 2006 edition of Martha Stewart Living Magazine celebrates its 15th year.

Martha Stewart is back, milder but no less talented. Her TV show (of which I had rather a large dose this Christmas vacation - albeit reruns) is back again for a new season. It is a pleasure to follow her precise instructions for perfectly made objects.

The satin bow, as described in her January magazine, is one of my favorite 'how-tos' of her 15 years of Good Things.
