Set the Table for Conversation and Connection
When family and friends gather around the table for good food and fellowship, special memories are sure to follow. Create a warm and welcoming atmosphere with this creative collection of seasonally inspired tablescapes by popular decor blogger Bre Doucette (Rooms for Rent).
Entertaining doesn't have to be stressful. Bre will walk you through every step of the process from planning the perfect get-together to adding special touches your guests will appreciate and remember.
But it all starts with a beautifully set table. No matter the season or reason, from casual to elegant, you'll discover tablescapes for any occasion. Enjoy an enchanting orchard picnic in spring, an alfresco evening in summer, a festive friends-giving in fall, a reflective New Year's soiree in winter, and eight other one-of-a-kind gatherings.
Throughout, you'll find lavishly photographed details, unique decorating ideas, and spiritual inspiration. Specially selected Scripture verses and heartfelt prayers will help you invite God to any gathering.
All of these gifts are waiting for you inside. Come join the table.
"From humble beginnings my passion was born, and I'm so glad that we're sharing this time together. I can't wait to show you season-influenced tablescapes for everything from casual gatherings to elegant parties. We'll look at how each element and every special touch serves up delight. My hope is that the photographed details, my stories, and the decor ideas will encourage gatherings of your own. I close each portion by highlighting a gift of gathering and by offering a blessing that can be read aloud to your guests or can simply be for your spirit's refreshment as you prepare for them"-- Provided by publisher.

Author notes provided by Syndetics
As the girl who couldn't wait to come home from school and rearrange her bedroom, it's no wonder Bre Doucette grew up loving to decorate homes. Her own is an 1846 farmhouse in New England, which she shares with her youth group sweetheart, her two kids, one dog, and twelve chickens. Bre welcomes others into her home through her blog - Rooms for Rent , where she spreads her passion for decorating, her belief that creating a home is so much more than the stuff we fill our rooms with, and a little bit of faith along the way. Bre's heart is to serve others through the gifts God has given her.
