Tastemaker and designer Danielle Rollins invites readers to join her
at home for a primer on living and entertaining in style.
Danielle Rollins is renowned for her elegant touch. In her second book,
she welcomes readers into her world and shows them how to create
gorgeous style at home in rooms tailor-made for gatherings,
get-togethers, cocktail hours, dinner parties, and intimate suppers.
Traveling room by room through the house, Rollins shares practical
advice and design inspiration. Drawing on her background as an expert
hostess and noted designer, Rollins delivers a live-your-best-life guide
rooted in the function and design essentials that keep a house
beautifully humming: the primacy of a useful floor plan in creating
spaces people actually live in and use; the necessity of organization
for beautiful, stress-free table settings and entertaining; and creating
vivid and happy color schemes that flow seamlessly from room to room.
The book will also include more than a dozen entertaining occasions and
tablescapes, including Easter brunch in the garden, a fried-chicken
buffet supper, and a candlelit Christmas Eve dinner in the living room.
With tips for a gracious life, from organizing your china pantry to
setting a memorable table, this book is a celebration of the power of
opening up your front door and inviting people in.
