When it comes to an interest in branding her name through retail outlets, the heiress of homemaking seems to never be satisfied.

"With Martha Stewart Create at Wal-Mart, consumers will experience the satisfaction that comes from making things by hand," said Stewart in a statement. "With Martha Stewart Celebrate, we will be able to provide beautiful, creative solutions for party-giving from intimate gatherings to large celebrations such as weddings."

I never tired of it as long as I lived in that house.
