FW 8.6 THE END! General Conclusions of the last pamphlet of the original 1922 Fascinating Womanhood pamphlets

Image
Hello, Beautiful Homemakers!   Can you believe that after a good two years we have finally reached the end of the original 1922 Fascinating Womanhood pamphlets?    The video will do a little recapping of some information in this last chapter called General Conclusions, and then I will go over some of the things men say they don't like in women, and what they DO like.    I talk a little about upgrading your wardrobe by getting rid of your old, ratty, too-tight, too low cut, stained, faded, sagging at the knees, or stretched out clothes and making room for new, feminine clothing.  Remember that business suits are masculine.  Only wear clothes that you feel adorable in! It's time to do a closet purge.  Remember to turn your hangers around so that at the end of the year you know which clothes you never wore.  OR, better yet, remove clothes that don't fit that you want to keep to a suitcase. Simplify your closet.   While visual impact co...

Hello, Beautiful Homemakers! I just came home from attending lovely Margaret's funeral. She was 96 years old. When I last saw her a few weeks ago she was as chipper and sweet as ever. She slipped into eternity last week in her sleep, in her own bed, at home. For those of you who enjoyed her story, I thought you'd like to know.      She was a true, frugal homemaker, raising 6 children in a tiny home with a big yard, right near a railroad track. She had the best orange and lemon trees. Several of her children spoke at the service, as well as a man who says he inserted himself into their family as a kid and never left. He testified to her scrumptious cooking, and many remarked on her Proverbs 31 ways.     When I asked her for her favorite Bible verses about marriage, she said she had two chapters she lived by:  Ephesians 5 and 1 Peter 3 .  This past year she and her daughter have been attending Sunday morning church with us and I will miss he...
