a most elegant table setting - Lucy & Tony Torres' homeBoy was I excited to receive my copy of the recently released book, "The Vintage Table," by Jacqueline de Montravel and the editors of Romantic Homes Magazine.
This book is a compilation of table and kitchen vignettes that are inspiring to say the least. Everything from old & new, to crisp & clean, family heirlooms to time-worn treasures, are compiled in such a manner that make you want to start planning a tea or dinner party just so you can set your table!
my dining room table (usually not that dressed up!)I'm humbled to be included in this book! Better yet, to be alongside my friends Janet of FrenchBlue & Co., and Lucy Torres of My Paris Flea Market. And of course, the other amazing people with scrumptious homes and treasures!
a little more about me...page 146 has my tips on collecting hotel silver...
I love this photo of Janet's collection of Laduree candy boxes under her gleaming chandelier...
...and Janet's prized Hotel Le Meurice cafe cup...(love it!)
How beautiful is Lucy's deck which overlooks the ocean in Southern California? The colors so soothing...the hanging grapes...so whimsical!photos from The Vintage Table

Congratulations!Delicious and inspiring pictures!!I will go to Smith and son in Paris, to see this book!

I just got the book. I thought I was the only one who saved pretty paper boxes (like the bakery ones mentioned in the book). They too reuse these & mix with more sublime objects. Good book w/good ideas.
