Her large garden, mainly vegetables, started at the back door and took up the entire yard. There was a path down the middle that led to the old chicken house. I later came to realize that this was a victory garden and my great-grandmother wanted to be self-sustaining during and after the war. . .For the last thirty years, I too have lived in an old farmhouse with gardens surrounding the home, at the edge of a small town. It is said that you are impressionable the first years of your life and now I see where my love of gardening came from. I realize that the things I do now all came from my growing up years - even canning. I realize as I get older how important that time with my great-grandmother was and how it has shaped me as an adult. . . "

The Settlement

This book includes hundreds of full color photographs depicting "make-do" antiques - items that were broken and then repaired or patched, given new parts from other objects, all things to extend their life and usefulness. Objects include early lighting, countless kitchen and buttery antiques, repaired books, clothing and baskets just to name a few. It is also a tribute to the people of the past, who lived in times when making do was a way of life and a means for survival. A make-do object can't exist without the make-do mindset of the user.
