Thinking of the brands in that mode, I have to put some thought to who the audiences are, are they different and are they merging? I did notice that the Martha Stewart Living advertising guidelines listed their core audience and women ages now while last year, the demographic was ten years lower. That’s interesting, but probably more accurate. I would also imagine that the Better Homes and Gardens demographic perhaps earns a bit less per household – only guessing here, I am just basing this on their brand positioning – in my head.

Better Homes and Gardens April 2016
And if, like me, you've paged through and remember past issues, you'll find very little new content in the special publications. On your recommendation, though, I'd be willing to check the magazine racks for this new issue. I used to be a member of RHS so I could receive "The Garden". It was good for having a different take on things than that shared by all the US publications.

This husband-and-wife team took their love of gardening to new heights with a vertical display of flowerpots created from inexpensive home supplies. Evoking the golden age of Dutch still lifes, this new generation of florals is blown-up, bold, and beautifully brooding. Plant these moody blooms as accents, or paper a wall in a grand romantic gesture. Marie-Laure Coste Dujols is bringing Parisian-style flower shopping to Atlantans at Le Jardin Français, where learning is fun, personal, and not the least bit intimidating.
Better Homes & Gardens July 1958
This could potentially attract a broader duel-gender audience, without alienating it’s core reader. Over all, this gardening issue is a big improvement over last-year’s version of the magazine. It is well curated, I actually could read the content, and it is beautifully photographed. Sure, but there is different between “nice and stylish’ and dated. Best part of all, it has gardening features on REAL gardening topics – – like a story on Baptisia selections (I know, right? Baptisia selections in Better Homes and Gardens? Who’d a thunk?). Now, maybe my gender antenna are sensitive lately since I’ve been secretly (or not-so-secretly after last months press announcements at International Toy Fair) working on a huge duel-gender project at work,but I ‘feel it’ here in the magazine, as well.
Someone else bought the name and it is nothing like it used to be. No advertising, book-heavy paper, advice from insiders, and lots of PLANTS. Look – a man, in Better Homes and Gardens!
Better Homes & Gardens March 1933
I received a text last week from an assistant at Better Homes and Gardens magazine asking me for my address because “Stephen Orr is a big fan of your blog”. I accepted the request to review the magazine, for many reasons – (one definitely not being because ‘said magazine’ had just nominated this blog for an award – (well, you the audience nominated it – but still). Sometimes the most successful inspiration for an interior comes from a love for the great outdoors.

At the end of the day, did I find this issue truly inspiring? Interest will be charged to your account from the purchase date if the balance is not paid in full within 6 months. Minimum monthly payments are required. Select PayPal Credit at checkout to have the option to pay over time.
The majority of pages are undamaged with minimal creasing or tearing, minimal pencil underlining of text, no highlighting of text, no writing in margins. See the seller’s listing for full details and description of any imperfections. Even a story on Peas, could fail with bad photos, but if crafted properly, even an expert cook or gardener can find escapist pleasure in it. We shared what we liked, and what we hated. Surprisingly, we ‘liked’ a lot, in an ‘nice improvements sort of way’, and we all agreed with the issues above – – thin paper stock and cover, but kudos for better typography, and what seemed like a lot more content.
Both magazines ( now both under various umbrellas of Meredith Corp. in one way or another), they are both in the process of refreshing themselves in an effort to escape survival mode in a world where digital media is challenging the established print media. When it comes to turning the house you have into the home of your dreams, you have a friend in Better Homes and Gardens. Better Homes and Gardens ñ itís where life happens. Of you giving a thumbs-up to BH&G. I buy and look at ALL the magazines even though most are disappointing and, actually, require persistence to page through before adding them to the contents of the recycling bin. I'm usually disappointed by the "special publications" because they simply rehash the best of the archives.
Much of what I was secretly working on drove a duel gender aisle at major retailers, so maybe…..Better Homes and Gardens is realizing that the old Martha audience was either female, or guys not afraid of ‘feminine pursuits’? It all looks attractive, but aside from the make-up and beauty articles, I could leave this in our manly bathroom and not feel too embarrassed as it sits next to Men’s Health. Looking nice’ doesn’t necessarily mean ‘gay’ in 2016.
I ‘get’ cutting costs in mailing weight, as as long as they ink doesn’t bleed through, and the binding holds, I’ guess I can live with that. I mean, we all throw them out eventually, but – now that the photos and recipes are more usable, I may want to save them as a hard copy. Many of us still have most if not all of our Martha Stewart Living issues.
Color-- more than any other factor-- establishes the mood of a room. Expert advice helps you use color to give every space in your home that just-right feel. Open shelves have a strong hold on today's decorating schemes. Take those wood planks up a notch with style-setting metal brackets.
Better Homes & Gardens November 1950
Turn your porch into a space that will tempt you to stay outdoors until the first snowflakes start falling again. Forget the dark, heavy look of hunting lodges and dens. Leather is lightening up and embracing its cheerful side by merging the material's time-tested durability with just-right-for-spring color. That article with the vertical potted wall showcases one of my favorite garden blog's creators. The Horticult is awesome, and their backyard oasis is so cool. Will usually ship within 1 business day of receiving cleared payment.
