I'll give you a shout out or answer your question on a future episode.I am chatting with In-the-Trenches homemaker and fellow podcaster, Hannah Stewart, of the Sugar and Spice Mom Life Podcast. Growing up, Hannah said she never wanted to get married or have kids, but God used the hospitable families of the church she attended in college to birth in her heart a desire for marriage, motherhood and homemaking. She left home with plenty of skills, but without the correct mindset regarding the emotional and relational work of the homemaker; nor was she prepared for the lack of cultural respect for her chosen occupation. She’s had to let go of many expectations and her tendency towards perfectionism, but in the letting go, God is teaching her the powerful impact of the tone she sets through her homemaking. We cover all the usual ground, so get ready for an hour full of trials and triumphs, tips, recipes and hard-won homemaking wisdom from this delightful and very insightful guest. CONNECT WITH HANNAHWebsite | sugarandspicemomlife.comPodcast | apple | Spotify YoutubeInstagram: @sugarandspicemomlifeMorning Bag Mini CourseQuiet Time Crash CourseSHOW NOTESAll links and resources, including Hannah's signature dish will be on the blog.

We have covered motivations for spring cleaning from history, modern sources and the Bible and we discussed tools and supplies. Then we utilized the top-down cleaning method to work our way from the surfaces over head, to the vertical surfaces like walls/windows and doors, then curtains and linens, and in our last spring cleaning episode we covered appliances, furniture and the forgotten. Today we will wrap things up with everything under foot…floors, rugs and carpets.Support the showHOMEMAKING RESOURCESHomemaker's Journal, AoH Seasonal MagazinePrivate Facebook Group, Homemaker ForumJR Miller's Homemaking Study GuideSUPPORT & CONNECT Review | Love The Podcast Contact | Text/Voicemail-use the link at top of description | Website | Email  Follow | Follow The PodcastSupport | theartofhomepodcast.com/support**Buy | as an Amazon affiliate, AoH receives a small commission at no extra cost to you when you use our links to purchase items we recommend

We’ve covered ceilings and overhead things and all of the hard vertical surfaces, including windows, doors and walls. This week, we will tackle the soft surfaces-primarily window coverings and linens. I want to start with linens, the move on to window coverings, and finally share with you a little spiritual lesson I learned from neglecting my curtains for nearly a decade. SHOW NOTESFull episode transcript and helpful product links will be on the blog.

After meeting her now husband online in 2020 and developing a relationship long-distance for several years, Jayms left everything she knew in America to be nearer to David in his homeland. She tells about her experience living in a special home for single women for a couple of years and her recent entrance into married life. She loves sharing how homemaking is different in South Africa and why that is not a bad thing, but rather an opportunity to grow in hospitality and Christ-like servanthood. SHOW NOTESAll resources and links will be on the blog.
