4 out of 5 stars Nice pictures and lots of ideas   April 10, 2008
I like this magazine but like others have mentioned it has a lot of ads. I enjoy most of the ads though, they give me ideas sometimes. Mostly it's a picture book, I don't really read many of the articles.


1 out of 5 stars Even the Articles Look Like Ads   March 28, 2008
 2 out of 2 found this review helpful

If you like advertisements, this is the magazine for you. The few articles that appear in the magazine consist of large photographs and very little text. So, if you should see a photo of a well-planned garden and want to learn more about it, there isn't enough information in the accompanying text. The text reads more like a caption for the photo. These articles are short, perhaps 4 or 5 pages. Even so, they are interrupted by pages of ads. And to make matters worse, the articles as laid out on the page look much like the ads. I paid about $10 for a one-year subscription. Not worth it. I felt like I was giving them money to recycle their paper for them.


4 out of 5 stars I look forward to...   March 12, 2008
 4 out of 4 found this review helpful

receiving my new issue of BHG every month. I got a gift suscription from my grandmother for Christmas. In 2007 I got married and we also purchased our first home. I like that this magazine has a mix of decorating ideas, recipes, gardening, and fashion. It is not all one or the other, so it is kind of like getting four magazines in one. I loved the new year issue that was all about getting organized, I keep it around to reference often and will likely renew my subscription after gift period is up.


1 out of 5 stars "Better" must mean "rich".   October 27, 2007
 1 out of 4 found this review helpful

I got this magazine for less than $10, so I guess I can't complain too much. I didn't realize there was a huge amount of ads. It pretty much seems the same as most other mainstream magazines. The thing that bothered me the most is that every article, every photo was of an absolutely perfect, breathtaking home or garden that you could only achieve through spending tons and tons of money. While I understand that most readers don't want to achieve dumpy looking homes, I think it would be better to make it more down-to-earth and homey rather than looking like a museum. Even the featured products usually cost a lot and the recipes each contain about $20 worth of ingredients (and usually don't sound very appealing anyway). I wound up usually just flipping through and tossing it aside.

The pictures are really nice to look at. When you think of remodeling your home or landscaping your yard, this publication gives you a good visual on what you might consider doing. Professionally done.

Peace and Happiness,
