I have a passion for old China, silver spoons, fabric and of course my books. The Plate post is such a good idea, and I am enjoying them so much. Must do one when I get time.Its lovely to mix vintage china especially for a tea party, and different plates for cakes on a cake stands. I have my Summer afternoon tea party coming up soon.TIGGYWINKLEhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10797704211597578471noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1259513454241506815.post-76386515420147763022009-06-13T15:00:12.893-07:002009-06-13T15:00:12.893-07:00I'm enjoying these 'plates' posts as c...I'm enjoying these 'plates' posts as china is one of my addictions.

I love nothing much better than setting a table for a dinner party...decided what plates look right for what person...so much fun.<br /><br />I had to smile when I read that you collect doormats. I do that as well. A fresh doormat on the front porch just tickles me to death!! I ususally get mine from Anthropologie as they seem to have the most colourful and quirky ones! And then, books. Well they are not a collection really. They are an absolute requirement for living.<br /><br />Have a wonderful weekend, Cait!<br />Edward and I send greetings.Pamela Terry and Edwardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12746603636884819522noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1259513454241506815.post-71217604549423139922009-06-13T05:48:06.734-07:002009-06-13T05:48:06.734-07:00I love your plates.

My first set of china was Adams Empress- lovely deep plates- plain white with ridged edges. When I changed to the Indian Tree- my daughter asked for the Adams set and I was happy to pass them along to her.<br /><br />I love china and have far too much. To me, it's like art.blackbirdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07044667449525289901noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1259513454241506815.post-51073212809466147092009-06-12T17:33:58.140-07:002009-06-12T17:33:58.140-07:00Lovely plates.
