The Set Table: The Art of Small Gatherings
Hannah Shuckburgh and Charlotte Bland
From supper for two on a candlelit urban roof terrace to a picnic lunch for friends on the sitting-room carpet, this is a book of imaginative and beautiful ideas for small gatherings. There will be no need to invest in a haul of priceless crockery and silver cutlery; instead, you’ll be inspired to use what you have: to repurpose old Moroccan tiles for butter dishes, say, or use a rolled-down brown paper bag for a bread basket. Built around the elements of a good table – from linens to glasses, flowers to serving platters – you’ll learn how to make a handsome table with scant resources. 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.
