Customer Reviews

Excellent record keeper

This book was given to me at my previous address by my mortgage company and it was so great that I had to buy it when I recently moved. A great way to keep track of paint colors and when you do any home improvements.

Record Keeper

It's a great product. I found it once in Hallmark and was hooked ever since. I love to give it to friends who have purchased new homes...along with "The Green Book", a fun pre printed grocery list you just check off and some green products in a cutsy pale! Makes a great gift. I would definately recommend it!

great for "interior decorating"

This is a nice product but it wasn't what I was hoping for in the end. I wanted/need something more like a 3-ring binder to hold samples, manuals, contracts, etc. This spiral bound book will hold small amounts of tiny paint chip samples and the like but there is not enough room in the pockets for much else. If you're looking for somewhere to record the ins and outs of your interior decorating escapades, this book is for you.

Great Tool - Nice Design

I bought this book as we are building our first house this year and I wanted somewhere to record all the information regarding contractors, colours, fixtures, fittings, etc as we went along with the building process. I have to say that this book is perfect for that! There's plenty of spaces to go through room by room recording all the information so you can really keep track of what's going in to your home. I also like the fact that after the build is over, I have places to record maintenance work done, information about the utility companies in the area, etc so I can use it as an ongoing tool and not just an organiser while the house is being built. There is also a great section for future planning towards the back. I think what I like most about this book though is the design. It's great to look at inside, using modern designs and colours, with a useful pocket inside for bits and pieces (can't remember if there is more than one but there might be). I looked at a lot of 'homeowner' type journals (I spent a really LONG time looking) and found that this one looked the best as well as being the most practical tool for my purposes. All in all, I think this is a great buy either for those who are building or those already in established homes.

Helps keep everything straight

This book is awesome for any busy homeowner. There are suggestions for keeping organized as you do all types of renovations--everything from from painting to dry wall to new appliances. I love having one single place to keep all our paint chips, swatches, etc. It's so much easier than a blank notebook because they have lines for everything you need to record.
