I met Cindy Smith at one of her performances and did not guess that she learned to play the guitar and started singing just a few short years ago. Her career took off running as evidenced by her many appearances and CDs.She captivated me with her stories growing up. I would never have associated this exuberant, smiling woman with the charming voice having to endure the hardships she experienced.Accounts of her childhood, not-so-normal occurrences, struggles with her daughter's illness and not to mention her Guardian Angel intervening in her life will grip you. In sharing her life with us, she brings hope to those who feel they have nothing to give and some darn good recipes with scant ingredients. It is fascinating and inspiring how you can make something from nothing.Dodie Rogers PattersonDaughter of Roy Rogers and Dale Evans

The owners of the acclaimed stores and decorating firm Circa Interiors present eight stylish, beautiful homes blending comfort, beauty, and function with classic Southern hospitality. A house with an open door is like a friend with an open heart: inviting, generous of spirit, and constant at the core. In their first book, Jane Schwab and Cindy Smith present beautifully arranged interiors in which the trademarks of their style—subtle color palettes, graceful furniture, an emphasis on comfort and entertaining—harmonize to create fresh yet classic rooms. Walking the reader through each home with their characteristic Southern charm, they share their vision and process, from big-picture topics such as room flow and furniture plans, to the importance of entryways and setting a beautiful table. The lessons also extend from the interior to the garden, as Schwab and Smith discuss how outside spaces can become natural extensions of the home for entertaining. Throughout, they share specific ideas for arranging rooms to welcome one, two, or four people as comfortably as fifty, establishing multifunctional, adaptable gathering places that are both gracious and functional for the family of the house as well as their guests.
