There are dozens of gorgeous photographs in this book that will inspire any hostess to set a beautiful table. But the real beauty in this book is the underlying simplicity of the designs. Many of the table settings are created using readily-available, natural objects, inexpensive craft supplies, and a little bit of time. By studying Jo Riggs' sense of color and design, you can learn how to create dramatic tables with relatively inexpensive, basic items. By adding small crafty touches you can transform the ordinary into the extraordinary. There are twenty themes ranging from winter picnics to elegant tea parties to Halloween. Combine the styling designs with the easy menu suggestions and you will have a complete theme for your next event.
