How to party, Christmas style

On the cusp of Christmas, I thought I'd post some of the amazing spreads of this little book I worked on recently, Winterfeest, by Snor publishers. It's full of recipes, decoration ideas and wine tips on how to throw the perfect, relaxed, yummy Christmas party with your friends. Pippa Middleton eat your heart out.

It was a joy to do the editorial on the recipes and words for this one, but actually holding the book in my hands was even better. It is soooo pretty! The paper's a treat, the photography done by iphone (and pushed through a swanky app, I reckon), and the book is stitched together with a single thread. It shows its readers exactly why books are never going to go out of fashion - some things have to be held, felt, smelt even, and no digital version is going to do. It's definitely one of the coolest projects I've been involved with this year.
