With genius tips on how to unearth treasures in junk shops, easy guides for simple things to make at home; effortless ideas for simple flowers and recipes for delicious homemade condiments every table you lay will be special. The look is simple, artistic and uncomplicated, celebrating the intimate and unique experience of eating well with the people you love.
