| Merry & Chic by Kathryn O'Shea-Evans |
I always loved pouring over the December issues of my favorite magazines filled with Christmas decorating ideas. Alas, the magazines are either shuttered or have reduced their Christmas ideas to almost nothing.
This book has the prettiest cover for your coffee table for the holidays.
"Welcome to the merriest, most stylish guide to holiday joy ever made. This dazzling book has it all—including recipes (some from iconic people, such as Abraham Lincoln’s gingerbread recipe and Jackie Kennedy’s Polet a l’Estragon); decor advice (all decadent-looking but easily achievable, thanks to input from designers); monthly to-do list calendars for your sanity; playlists of unexpected holiday jams for different types of events (from cocktail parties to lingering candlelight suppers); and DIY gift ideas that will actually be adored."
I just ordered it - it had me at that red and green marbled and striped cover. Find it here.
I, too miss all of the beautiful shelter and decorating magazines that used to be so prolific. I suppose because people have switched from print to digital content, but sadly, so many of them just closed up shop. I viewed the sample pages on Amazon, and the book looks beautiful.
ReplyDeleteI also miss the beautiful Christmas issues and find no enjoyment in digital issues. I subscribe to several British magazines and they are wonderful! Barnes and Noble usually has them if you want to check them out as they are more expensive. I subscribe to Country Living, English Home, Country Homes and Interiors and Period Living. If I had to choose one it would be Country Homes and Interiors.
