Everyday Joy

Award-winning designer Kate Nixon believes in finding happiness at home. In Everyday Joy, Kate shares her design and entertaining secrets for making a home feel lived in and joyful – whether that be how to make your bed cosy, how to capture the ‘old soul, new spirit’ feeling in a kid’s room, or how to style your table, and what to serve, when friends come round for Sunday lunch.

Everyday Joy is broken up by times of day – Rise, Shine and Restore – and each part includes decorating ideas, as well as entertaining tips and 30 easy recipes, from a brunch-friendly Fruit Crumble Cake to the perfect Chicken Sandwiches to dinner party favourites like Rosemary Lamb and Chicken and Tarragon Pie. Drawing on her wealth of experience as a designer and interiors editor for Australian House & Garden, Everyday Joy is a bible for home life akin to a Nancy Meyers's film set.
