Summary

Athena Calderone (A.K.A.) EyeSwoon is many things. As an interior designer, author, chef, and entertaining expert she has mastered the home, and, thus, has mastered the art of throwing a seamless dinner party. In fact, her hostess skills stem from days of debilitating shyness. Soon thereafter, a star was born. As we head into the holidays, we wanted to pick Athena’s brain on all things entertaining from where to start (especially if you aren’t one for hosting), easy and affordable ways to set a table, why having two recipes in your back pocket will save you—and so much more. We hope this inspires you to bring your loved ones together for your next gathering (hopefully no stress included).
