Southern Lady: Gracious Tables: The Perfect Setting for Any Occasion

This book is everything it claims to be..ideas for creating the gracious, comfortable spaces it describes. I have it placed on a table in my family room so others can enjoy it also. Thanks!

I'm from the Midwest but fell in love with the South from the first time I visited. There is such a gracious, beautiful, laid back feeling that you can't find in other parts of the country. This book captures that southern feeling & grace. I have brought back so may decorating ideas from trips down south and have decorated my Wisconsin home alot like some of the photos in this beautiful book. I think in another life I must have lived in the South!! This book captures alot of the "soul" of what southern living means to me. I have already gone through it twice and I just received it in the mail. Beautiful job.

This book was pretty, and had some lovely vignettes pictured, but I was hoping for more depictions of complete rooms and designer attributions. It seemed like an expanded version of Ms. Hoffman's Bliss Victoria magazine. I felt like I had eaten the salad and was still waiting for the main course.

This is really a lovely book with lots of photographs. That is why I call it a "dream" book. I wish my home looked liked those in the pictures. O well, I can always dream.

Very good book...I personally love Southern Lady magazine, Southern cooking and anything to do with Southern culture. This fits the bill.
