To Happy Beginnings
“Starting Fresh” in the October issue really
grabbed me. My husband and I are empty
nesters with an eye toward someday living on a
boat. Downsizing from a suburban home to a
condo comes first. Thank you for letting me see
how others are moving forward with their lives
as I strive for wonder and peace in mine.

BHG’s New Look
Wow! I am so pleased
to see the new design of
Better Homes and Gardens
.
®
I
started “reading”
BHG
when I was about 4.
Although I have subscribed
off and on for years and
years, I am now “in for the
duration” because
I am
very pleased with the
new layout, space, colors,
features, and everything
else
. Thanks for living up
to the title of the magazine.

Congratulations on the
new format.
I haven’t
spent this much time
with any magazine in
a long time
. With our
early fall weather, it was
a real treat sitting in
my favorite chair, sun
pouring in, and getting
comfortable with a new
old friend.

“I have been reading
your magazine for over
30
years. Love the new
format! Keep the good
stuff coming.”

Big Ideas
I appreciate that in every
issue there is some article
about smaller living
spaces. I can’t tell you how
many ideas I used over the
years from your magazine.
I had stopped subscribing
several years ago when
it seemed your magazine
was primarily for those
who own “McMansions.”
More recently I have been
reading my daughter-in-
law’s copies and discovered
you have ideas I can use
again. So I am again a
subscriber on my own.

Real Beauty
I was so excited to find
a list of animal-friendly
brands in
BHG
! There
are so many cruelty-free
options available, there’s
just no excuse for anyone
to buy animal-tested
products. Thanks for
giving such humane and
helpful advice.
