Escape to the country July 26, 2010 Maria I have been a subscriber to country living for many years. I am a city born and raised woman and long to escape to the country style of living. This magazine does that for me. I love it and recommend it highly.
Good service, so-so magazine July 17, 2010 Karyn The magazine I got for a great deal on amazon. However inside the magazine it is mostly advertisements. It does have some good articles. It features a lot on antiques more than the country theme. I got this as a gift for someone. It always arrives on time so no complaints in the delivery department.
Nice magazine to relax with May 23, 2010 M. Pumilia (Pine Bush, NY) So far only received one issue, but used to subscribe to it many years ago. Pictures are nice and I intend on getting many ideas to spruce up my 22 year old home.
Lost it's spark! May 18, 2010 Justin L. Sander (Denver, CO) 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
This magazine has really gone down hill, coincidentally when the newest editor (Sarah Gray Miller) took over. This magazine used to be my absolute favorite! The features on women entrepreneurs, the crafts, the fresh & unique ideas.
The most recent issue (May 2010) however, thought it was a centerfold-worthy idea to (get this) display family photos in a stairwell! This is the sort of creativity CL is producing these days - family photos in a stairwell... I don't know who they think they're reaching, since pretty much every home in America with a stairwell has probably had family photos displayed in it at one time or another. The gall, I think, to pass such ideas off as fresh & new.
What will they feature next, hanging a kitchen towel from your stove handle? Putting magnets on a refrigerator? Photography books cleverly displayed on a coffee table?
I would not be surprised if their "creative" team is getting inspiration by flipping through 1992's issues of Woman's Day.
This magazine is surely no longer worth the money, especially now that it's 50% ads made to look like even more home decorating "ideas". Yes, even for $1, which is Amazon's cost for a year's subscription. It's still not worth it, it's that bad. If you must appease your curiosity, I would suggest maybe flipping through it once a month in the grocery store if you have the time. Most likely you will find, however, that's it's still not worthy buying.
Full of Ideas for Decorating April 15, 2010 Martha E. Cathcart (Aiken, SC United States) I first saw this magazine at a Chinese restaurant where I eat occasionally. I was so impressed with the great ideas it had in it for just simple additions for perking up your house that I started subscribing. They have reviews of Antiques, ideas for using "old things" in new ways as well as many new ways for using what you already have. I would recommend this magazine highly. Amazon had a good price on this magazine so I jumped on it.
