The Vintage Table

I just purchased The Vintage Table (Personal Treasures and Standout Settings) by Jacqueline de Montravel. Last night, I looked mainly at the pictures and only did a little reading. There are not as many photos of actual table settings as I thought there might be but there are a lot of ideas on how to put your own personal items together in a table arrangement. The idea so far is to take what you already have, make it personal and mix. As with Vintage Vavoom, the glossy photos are beautiful. Tonight, I will do more reading on their tips of putting it all together. Fellow bloggers, have you seen the book and what ideas did you get from it?
