Some people get inspired to entertain by recipes, and pictures of food, that have you salivating just from imagining the flavours. They want to treat their guests to divine dishes that will satisfy and delight.
For others, inspiration comes from the opportunity to be a social goddess -photos of gorgeous dresses, luscious cocktails, long glasses of bubbles and the sweet noise of laughter, mingled conversations and music - make them want to throw open the doors right now and make it happen in their home.
Or, some people are inspired by images of fabulously decorated rooms and tables... by party scenes that have been created with thought, imagination and flair. They want to have their guests feel the mood from the moment they walk in the door, and to be wow-ed by the ambience of a beautifully put-together venue.
Of couse, there are plenty of us, who feel the motivation to entertain at home when any of these elements are laid before us. Visual stimulation can sure get the creative juices running!
Here are some really gorgeous Christmas table themes from the very talented Hostess with the Mostess , it is refreshing to see colours other than red and green. Here, in Australia, those colours can be too heavy... with our wam (hot!) summer days of Christmas, our homes are so much better suited to light and bright colours.
