Still Unsure? READ THIS!

If you're like me you've wanted to have a beautiful holiday table top ever since you first started watching HGTV or seeing those beautiful images on Pinterest... 
 
Maybe you tried to copy what you saw on TV or the internet, but if you were honest with yourself, it never quite looked the way you imagined. You would go online and try looking at Pinterest again, scroll Instagram and even buy those expensive Holiday Magazines at the grocery store, the ones that cost $14.99!!, but somehow your holiday table still wasn’t working…and the family and friends were planning to be over in a few short weeks…if not a few short hours! 
 
If I could show you how to create spectacular holiday table tops in just 5 days WITHOUT:
 
Needing a Glue Gun or Some Fancy Bow Maker Thing 
Spending a Ton of Money on New Dishes, Plates and Silverware 
Negatively Impacting Your Emotional Well Being Because of the Stress, Mess and Bad Outcome 
 
...would you be interested? 
 
Look, I have been in the Luxury Design and Decorating Industry since 1989. I have worked in major markets including New York City, Beverly Hills, the San Francisco Bay Area and more. But here’s the thing: even I didn’t know how to get the look I wanted when it came to setting gorgeous tables for parties and dinners! That is…UNTIL I had a client NEED me to get it right, she was trusting me for a “look” and in truth? I didn’t know what the heck to do about it! 
 
I casually said “of course I’ll do it” to her request and thought to myself, now what Ann?! How are you going to pull this off?! 
 
I was successful as a designer and decorator, I was even great at arranging vignettes and book shelves for clients but I had struggled internally to set tables that didn’t look boring or flat. I had a 50th Anniversary Family Golf Tournament party where I had a great idea for a golf-themed centerpiece and everyone was happy the “designer in the family” was doing the table centerpieces, but the day of the event I paniced, freaked out and even cried! The table tops were were horrible! It worked out ok because it was a casual party and, well, people were partying...and they were kind of so bad that they were a conversation piece – some people even thought I did them on purpose that way (I didn’t) and complimented me on how kitschy they were! I was so embarrassed…my design in my head was elegant, not "kitschy"...ugh.

This Is The Golf Table...FLAT! It Was Pretty In My Head...Just Not In Real Life!

So here I am again where someone is asking me to help with the tables…my elegant client turns to me as her designer, which seems perfectly logical…to help her set the party table…and I was in a real pickle! What was I going to do?! 
 
After that request, which worked out well by the way, I spent years learning and practicing table settings and arranging centerpieces, I even volunteered my house for bridal showers, engagement parties and more JUST so I could practice getting really great at arranging beautiful buffet and sit down dinner tables! I finally developed my own system on table setting, which I first shared in 2013, as part of a Holiday Decorating Course for my best clients! It was a hit & I had finally mastered the art of celebration, when it came to setting tables…that WORKED for real people, using real table settings and eating real meals. 
 
That's Why I Put Together This 5 Day Spectacular Table Top Challenge... 
 
I'm so confident that these tips work, that I know your Holiday will be more peace filled and you’ll have more joy during the process. Heck, we even tackle eliminating last minute fretting and getting rid of perfectionism so there aren’t last minute tears, fights or hiding in the pantry closet with wine while guests are arriving! 
 
Here's what you'll get: 
 
✔️ My Proprietary System For No-Fail Table Tops 
✔️A Community of Like-minded Happy People Who Want To Serve Family and Friends Through Beautiful Hosting 
✔️Mentorship and Teaching In The Art of Celebration

NOTE: This is NOT for people who are looking to be entertained by a fancy show! We are working from spaces as diverse as garages with folding tables as bases and average dining rooms to showcase the reality of setting tables for real people and real tables that get real use.
 
This challenge is NOT for "sideline perfectionists” who want to make displays that are overwhelming to look at but have no basis in reality. We are not filling these tables with $1,000 plates and hard to find silver that only the Queen of England has access to...we are using things as diverse as folding tables and fabrics, straight from the bolts!

This challenge is NOT for judging people or complainers who are afraid to try new looks or aren’t able to laugh at happy mistakes during the learning process…because this IS a learning process!

This is NOT a “one and done” challenge – it’s learning a new, joyful way of looking at tables and setting them for the best experience and spectacular look you can achieve! 
 
We ONLY want to work with cheerful, hopeful people who want to learn new ways to set beautiful tables this holiday season!
