5.0 out of 5 stars Informative and Inspiring October 24, 2012
By ArielML
Format:Hardcover
I absolutely loved this book and couldn't put it down. It is full of highly detailed tips and tricks to suit any home or budget, showcasing a variety of styles and spaces. Additionally, his perspectives on and suggestions for entertaining are fresh and revelatory--he doesn't just make it look easy, he shows exactly how you can too. Best of all is the writing style--intimate and conversational, it makes for easy and fun reading, as if you were having a casual chat with him. This book is a must have for anyone interested in making their spaces more interesting and beautiful and their parties more memorable and delicious (great-sounding recipes included).
