    I've got a bunch of white ironstone platters I should probably hang on a wall somewhere ... but I keep thinking it would just be easier to stack them on a shelf out in the open. :) Thanks for hosting, Donna.

    I always love the look of decorating with plates, but I think I am hesitant for messing it up and having it look like someone threw a bunch of plates at my wall, and they stuck! I love the beautiful examples. Happy Friday night friend!

    I love plates. I have a set of dessert plates with fork/knife/spoon on them in an old cheese crate. The grandkids like to set the table for dessert with them. Plus they look cool on the counter too.

    Fun party.

    Thank you so much for featuring my dessert tray. That is one of my favorite projects! I remember my husband wanting to throw that chandelier away and I picked it up turned it every way and came up with this idea. He still laughs at me. It is hard to throw anything away! lol Thanks for letting me link up too!

    A note to the wise: think twice before hanging plates in a bedroom. The springy hangers on the back like to jingle and rattle at two o'clock in the morning!

    Hello Donna!
    It's always a pleasure for me linking my posts here, your party is fantastic and I find so many great ideas.
    I especially enjoy this week's theme. I collect vintage children's plates (and teacups) and I love displaying them where I can watch them and I also hung some tureen lids on a wall.
