Stylist and interiors writer Emily Chalmers offers an abundance of delightful ideas for adorning your table with stylish settings and decorations for every possible occasion, from the simplest weekday supper with friends to a classic celebratory dinner, from a weekend brunch to an informal alfresco lunch.
Unlike other books on table settings, the decorations here do not rely on ornate dinner services or canteens of silver cutlery but on simple, pretty and imaginative ideas that will bring a dash of originality and elegance whatever the event. The ideas, captured in David Brittain's elegant photography, are also designed for people with busy lifestyles, and are quick and easy to create.
