2nd hand dishes

December 29th, 2006 at 04:06 am

In college I bought a set of heavy stoneware dishes & bowls from Goodwill for about $10.00 for the set. They have served me well.

Last year, I inherited my great-aunts daily dishes. I used them in tandem with the college dishes.

I also inherited her china, which is beautiful. The pictures don't do the china justice. I'm going to work on getting some better pictures of the china this weekend.

I got my grandmothers china handed down to me and now my entire dining room is decorated around those dishes in color and style. I even hung my grandmother and grandfathers wedding picture on the wall in there. Gifts like these can't be replaced!

It looks from the pictures that you have good quality china. Way to go!
