Instructions For Everyday Life

One of the few magazines I have subscribed to that I felt was a very good "bang for the buck" is ReadyMade at http://www.readymade.com. Their subtitle is "Instructions for Everyday Life" and I find this to be a credo I can get behind. The layout appeals to early adopters like me who like to make stuff especially in the 'repurposing' and 'reuse' of everyday objects. The magazine is graphically pleasing and the instructions they print are similarly easy to understand with lots of pictures and illustrations. In the current economic maelstrom,we need this kind of resource, if only to realign our thoughts about the importance of making the word 'recycle' part of our everyday habits. For those of you not ready to adopt a new magazine subscription you can still plumb their website which is chockful of stuff. There are many helpful tips, suggestions, and blogs, that are part of their exclusive web content. The page I have already added to my list of favorites is their Resources tab at http://www.readymade.com which includes Homefixes-household tips, fix-it tricks and clever uses for commonplace things. That's what it's about. Reusing, Recycling and Repurposing in a clever way!
