If, like me, you're taking a moment to pause and reset following the Christmas excess you'll appreciate some lighter, fresher and simpler to pull together table settings. You might still be working on your New Year table decor ideas, but come January, it will be all about more pared back gatherings and quite dinners for two.
While I was craving inspiration for an antidote to the festive excesses, I scrolled upon Joanna Gaines' video where she creates the most elegant and subtly styled table for two. She might have been looking ahead to Valentine's Day, for this gently romantic setting, but it stopped me in my scrolling tracks, as it brought an instant feeling of calm and composure that I've been missing in the rather hectic run-up to the festive season.
