Are you keeping up with all your New Year's goals and resolutions so far?
There's no better time like the start of a new year to get yourself and your family organized and in good health. And to help, you can shop my collections for helpful and useful inspirations, ideas, and products. If you're looking to streamline a home office, take a look at my California Closets Collection for workspace solutions. If you're keeping in touch with family from afar, consider getting a Martha Stewart Mixbook. Go to Martha & Marley Spoon for healthy and delicious meal kits that can be delivered straight to your door. Keep warm in my puffy down vest - I call it "the new sweater" - you can find two new colors on Amazon. My shop has so many wonderful items. For useful tips and tricks, get a copy of my newest book, "Martha Stewart's Very Good Things" and follow my new Instagram page @MarthaStewartGoodThings. And, be sure to check out my line of Martha Stewart CBD wellness supplements for people and for pets - all developed with Canopy. I have something for everyone.
Here are some photos, enjoy.
If you haven’t already gotten your 2021 calendar, this one features 13 full-color photos of spectacular blooms and arrangements with accompanying information taken from my “Martha’s Flowers” book – it’s great for gardeners, or anyone looking forward to all those pretty blossoms of spring and summer. It’s available at my shop on Amazon.
Among the good things in the book – using metal mailboxes, typically used for apartments and front porches, for use indoors. Those with hooks can be used to hang coats, bags and umbrellas. Plus, because they’re magnetic, they can also hold notes and to-do lists.
Create a pull-out shelf by using a piece of plywood attached with pull-out guides so it can slide back when not in use. Plus, use a plastic cutting board to help fold sweaters, shirts and other garments perfectly.
Here’s another good thing for when it is safe for us to all travel again. Instead of scrapbooking, try scrap-boxing. Using a plain hinged wooden box, create a container of keepsakes for each past trip or celebration.
So many of you love this soap dispenser good thing – just decant your dishwashing liquid into an attractive glass bottle and top it with a pour-out spout available at any kitchen supply store. This tip was first introduced in my April/May 1993 issue of “Martha Stewart Living.” We’re offering more and more Good Things every day. If you haven’t already, be sure to follow our new Instagram page @MarthaStewartGoodThings and our new web site MarthaStewartGoodThings.com.
My Mixbook photo books and calendars are the perfect way to start the year filled with good memories. Customize your family photos with Martha patterns and designs.
If you’re looking to organize your “working from home” spaces, be sure to check out my collection at California Closets. This is the office space above my Carriage House where my friend and colleague, Kevin Sharkey, stays when he visits. For this project, I decided to use The Everyday System ™ from California Closets – the high-quality modular components I designed with the company. It was a perfect way to create a functional and elegant modular office space for the room. Once I selected the configuration, California Closets scheduled a professional installation using their new TouchLessService. The Everyday System is practical, stylish, and fits in with any room decor. And it’s so easy to add on, move to another space, or take it with you when you move.

These drawers are so roomy, and can be pulled out completely for easy access – no more digging blindly for files. (Photo by Stefan Radtke, @Stefan_Radtke)
This system has a place for everything. On this shelf, I have lots of notebooks, journals and my Stack-and-Fit Inboxes – supplies from my Office Collection at Staples. (Photo by Stefan Radtke, @Stefan_Radtke)
This Everyday System can be used in a reach-in closet configuration or act as a stand-alone storage unit like this. The refined design is configured with more than 87-inches of combined hanging and overhead storage space.
Here is a smaller configuration. The Everyday System with California Closets is practical and well-designed and can be adjusted to fit all your organizing needs.
These components feature a modern palette of wood and metal finishes that can fit in every home.
And, all the drawers are soft-close – no more smashed fingers.
Also for the new year, don’t forget Martha Stewart & Marley Spoon – make a fresh start with our weekly meal plan kits specifically created to help make dinners fast, easy, healthy and most of all, delicious.
Some of our meal kit recipes include this Creamed Kale Tortelloni with Blistered Tomatoes & Pine Nuts. This veggie-packed dish features fresh tortelloni with a game-changing way to eat kale—creamed! You have to try it! We sauté curly kale with shallots and garlic, then add sweet, creamy mascarpone. The result is a silky sauce that perfectly coats cheesy stuffed pasta. Roasted plum tomatoes and toasted pine nuts on top add a sweet and nutty crunch.
For this Broccoli-Cheddar Taquitos with Crema & Corn Black Bean Salsa, we fill flour tortillas with finely chopped broccoli and cheddar, roll tightly, and bake until crisp and then serve crunchy taquitos with homemade corn-black bean salsa, sour cream, fresh cilantro, and lime for squeezing over.
For those who prefer plant-based meals, this is Korean BBQ Cauliflower with Steamed Rice. The trick is roasting the cauliflower before coating it in a sweet and spicy gochujang sauce. We add baby spinach to the rice before serving for an extra hit of veggies and a sprinkle of sesame seeds on top for a nutty crunch.
And, did you see this on my Instagram page @MarthaStewart48? We are well-stocked with my Martha Stewart Women’s Puffer Vest on Amazon – it’s so popular. I call it “the new sweater”. This cap sleeved vest has fleece lined pockets and hidden zippers. Plus, it’s ultra-lightweight construction makes it easy to pack away. Our new colors are pink and khaki, but we also have navy, black and ladybug red. Check them out.
I also recently launched Martha Stewart CBD for Pet – a new line of scientifically-backed CBD wellness solutions for dogs featuring savory, gourmet-flavored soft-baked chews and oil drops. Get your dogs off to a good start too this new year!
And don’t forget my CBD for people! The scientists at Canopy Growth and I have worked so hard to develop these great CBD products. These supplements include natural, gourmet-flavored wellness gummies, softgels and oil drops made with the purest, safest CBD, derived from 100-percent US hemp. Here I am holding my Martha Stewart CBD 15 Flavor Sampler Wellness Gummies box. These gummies are packaged in an elegant and reusable linen-textured drawer box. All the CBD cube gummies are inspired by fruits and flavors I love and use. I hope we all have a terrific 2021! (Photo by Mike Krautter)
