Description
Mally Skok, an internationally recognized designer of interiors, furniture, and fabric, now brings her voice to Mally’s little Handbook: A Guide to Finding Your Joy Through My Designer Eyes. This delightful book reads like a friendly chat, inspiring others to join Mally in her thinking through topics that range from successfully hosting overnight guests to navigating antique stores in a quest to discover just the right treasures.
With refreshing humour and considerable wit, accompanied by whimsically illustrated pages, Mally invites you to notice the little things while providing a blueprint for planning the bigger things. She is both freeing and forthright as she encourages readers to “take what you like and toss out what you don’t.” Throughout, her deeper message to readers is to “enjoy life” and while at it, “help someone else along the way.”

Mally’s primer on the good life abounds with the same joie de vivre that emanates from her ebullient interiors, vibrant fabric and wallpaper collections, as well as her spirited dinner parties. In every case, nothing’s formulaic nor fussy, and there’s always room for serendipity and spontaneity. Mally creates homes with heart; her rooms say “welcome home.” When it comes to entertaining, the mantra is “pull up a chair, we’re glad you’re here.” Now, with this collection of beguiling dispatches on the art of living well, readers can craft their own experiences with both elegance and, most importantly, ease!
