Hello World! Going along in the entryway theme, I went shopping to find some pretty plates and platters for the china hutch makeover. I love the stain on the hutch, so miracle of miracles, I'm not painting it. But, I do want to lighten up the interior of the hutch. That's where all the pretty plates come in. Ready to see?
Most of the plates are either white or cream in color.
Such pretty little details along the edge.
I literally gasped out loud when I saw these sweet leaf plates.
Just look at the pretty details.
In this shot, you can see the raised details on the white plates in the background.
A simple scalloped platter.
Another simple platter with little lovlies on the sides.
I simply could not resist this platter. Do you blame me?
Here's a close-up of the pattern.
Found a smaller one that has the same pattern but this one is edged in yellow.
Look how they coordinate with the Sophia Rug which has touches of yellow.
Love, love, love this one.
Such great pieces to help lighten up the interior of the china hutch. I'm sure the platters will come in handy when we entertain. Oh, and all the plates and platters were purchased from Home Goods.
That's it for today. I'm off to measure a wicker setee that I got from our good friend, Josh. I want to spray paint her and get a cushion ordered for her for Easter. Better get on it. Wishing all a pretty weekend and remember to be kind to one another. Fear Not!
Toodles,
Kathryn

Can't get enough of them, but I got rid of almost all of mine when we moved...except my wedding china and all the white ones. I can't get enough of white dinnerware. It brightens everything up and looks so uncluttered and fresh.
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend.
XOXO's
I hear you Marcia. I fall in love with white more and more everyday. Thank you for popping in for a visit. Toodles, Kathryn

DeleteLove dishes too especially white and creme ones, the platters are gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteThey are so nice,it will look amazing.
ReplyDeleteI love my hutch with all it's blue and white but am thinking to change it to pink and white. We have to have some plastering done soon,so will wait until then when it will be emptied. love hutch changes. hope you post the end result. x
I love that platter with the bird on it! I can see how you just couldn't resist.
ReplyDeleteOh, and my HUSBAND just walked in my office and - referring to your blog - said, "I like that background." LOL! What can I say, he has good taste. I've trained him well. Maybe too well....?
XOXO,
Meredith
Oh, what a lovely selection of plates! The rug is gorgeous, too. I enjoy visiting Home Goods and checking out all the wonderful decor (and food items!) Happy March~

I know, they get you at the end with all their little treats. lol. Thank you for popping in for a visit. Toodles, Kathryn
DeleteLove them all! To relax, some do yoga, some go for a run, and some meditate...I go to Home Goods. I consider all your beautiful finds a great justification for this.
ReplyDeleteHow interesting and pretty! Even before seeing your Friday post, I decided that I would pull out some of my favorite white prices from a collection of pitchers to re-do my mantel. I will show the makeover in my Monday post and link up with your Monday blog. I sure wish we had a Home Goods in our area.
ReplyDeleteI love that collection of white plates. I have a growing collection of white plates. It looks so beautiful against the black display cabinets. I'm so glad that my housekeeping service helps me with keeping everything dusted. I don't know why dust accumulates inside the cabinets, but it does.
ReplyDeleteIt's crazy how much dust can get into a china cabinet. Thanks for popping in for a visit. Toodles, Kathryn
DeleteLove the peacock platter...I have a special corner for peacocks in my heart and that is the reason I use them in my art so often :)
ReplyDeleteSuch pretty white plates and I love that bird platter. You said you were putting this all in your hutch. I hope you're going to show us a picture of the hutch when you're all done!
ReplyDeletepretty plates and wow...that platter is gorgeous !
ReplyDeleteThanks Debra! I can't wait to put it in its new home. Have a happy day. Toodles, Kathryn

ReplyDeleteLove, love the whites!
ReplyDeleteAll your plates are wonderful but the yellow and blue ones stole my heart. So pretty!
ReplyDeleteGreat choice in plates and platters. I do love white and cream plates, but the bird patterned ones are gorgeous...and of course, go with white or cream. :)
ReplyDeleteSo, so pretty! I like that you aren't painting your china cabinet. Mine is dark, too, and I couldn't bare to paint it! Your plates are lovely and have very interesting details. Love Home Goods!
