"Just because you re ready for spring doesn t mean winter is about to relinquish her season. This is why Margot Shaw s new book, Living Floral, Entertaining and Decorating with Flowers, is the ideal salve for those who crave the nuances of nurturing weather. Create your own uplifting environment with flowers. And what better way than to cull ideas from tables and settings of such tastemakers as Charlotte Moss, Cornelia Guest, Susanne Rheinstein and event designer Tara Guérard among others." DUCKS GOOSE
"Having had a sneak peek at the book, we can say this perfectly summarizes page after lush page that illustrates how some of the industry s most popular and respected designers and tastemakers entertain." CURREY & CO
"...a
gorgeous and comprehensive new coffee-table book filled with inspiring ways to add blooming-fabulous touches to our homes and parties." THE SALONNIERE
"Every design library needs at least a few books that spark happiness, and Margot Shaw's debut book, Living Floral (Rizzoli New York), is one that did just that for me. As the founder and editor in chief of Flower magazine, Margot has dedicated her publication to celebrating beauty in many forms: interiors, gardens, entertaining, and, of course, flowers. It is a winning combination that has made the magazine a success and one that is the focus of her new book... The book contains really delightful images of interiors, table settings, outdoor entertaining, and more than a few lucky dogs. (As you can see below, I'm partial to those images featuring our four-legged friends.) But what you won't find in this book is condescension. The book's text never speaks down to readers, but rather thoughtfully encourages them to enjoy the beauty and perhaps adopt a few ideas and tips for themselves. If you're looking for some inspiration and how-tos on decorating, floral arranging, and entertaining, this is the book for you." PEAK OF CHIC
