This handbook presents ideas and inspirations for creating individual table chic. It first explores the traditional constituents of table setting - cutlery, china, glass, linen, candles, decoration and furniture - and helps the reader make an initial selection. With a design directory to point you towards those elements that suit your style, there are also ideas for ways to mix and match your table ware to make your table setting look different every time. Then there are 20 themed table settings to create, with practical instructions and step-by-step photographs. From restrained Sake to opulent gold, there are settings to suit every home - the relaxed country look, elegant modern minimalism, or a more formal approach. There are also ideas for special occasions such as Valentine's Day, Thanksgiving and Christmas.
