Country Living: Celebrations

Rediscover the enjoyment of the changing seasons with original ideas for decorating the home, seasonal food and drink and traditional crafts. Spring brings Valentine's Day, Easter and the first flowers of the year to cheer the passing of winter. In summer, thoughts turn to picnics, days at the beach and midsummer weddings. Autumn means harvest in the country calendar, Halloween and woodland walks - and the year draws to a close with preparations for Christmas and New Year celebrations.

Each chapter contains a special Practicalities section with instructions for creating many of the ideas shown in the book, from seasonal flower arrangements to traditional recipes and simple cakes. Illustrated throughout with a huge range of photographs from 'Country Living's' exclusive archive, 'Celebrations' marks the traditional festivals of the year in style.
