China Patterns
Most of you probably know Kelly from Kelly's Korner. She does a Show Us Your Life post every Friday. This week is show us your china patterns. I've never participated before, but decided to this week. I have my grandmother's formal china so I didn't buy any formal china when I got married. We had a very small wedding and didn't really register for anything. Barry surprised me for my birthday last year and bought me 12 pieces of the Maribeth dinnerware from Pier One. I had been drooling over it since I first saw it. Isn't he the best?!!
I'd also been wanting dinnerware I could use at Christmas. Dillards carries the Noble Excellence Twas the Night Before Christmas pattern and I love it. I started getting pieces last year. I think I'm going to ask for pieces each year and also buy my own.

That is so much fun! My parents bought us china when we got married. My MIL was supposed to give us china from her ex-husband (he gave it to us) but she kept it, as it is very valuable. What can I say, she's a cow.
I love your china though! It is so much fun to pull it out and use it. I just always hate cleaning it by hand, packing it away, and putting it back. lol
i LOVE LOVE LOVE china. if i could, i'd have 4-5 sets and i've daydreamed in the past about designing both china and bedding (i can't seem to find ones of either that i love as much as the prints in my head).
that was sooo very sweet of your hubby to surprise you for your bday last year. he sounds like a keeper!!
i'm very excited for you getting on the list to be shown to birth parents. i'm keeping my fingers crossed for you that a couple picks you out sooner than later!!
*fingers crossed*.
Your stuff is beautiful!
I am a total dud. My everyday dishes are plain white. My china is white with a silver line around the rim, and has NEVER been unpacked since we got it for our wedding 8 years ago!
AHHH! I LOVE this dishes :)
I love both of these!! But I'm like Faith, I have the boring stuff and my wedding stuff is still in storage. xx
Jennifer,
I LOVE your pattern! Can I just say that I am obsessed with China! I would be a China-holic if I had the room to store it all. Mainly, I have a fettish for sterling silver and well of course the china goes along with that! LOL
My everyday china is a little simple, Wedgewood, Nantucket Basket. It's white with a basketweave border, but it still makes me smile and remember "that day", which is coming up on the 10 year mark!
Love this post...its FUN :)
Are you sitting by your pool today????
HUGS and Have a wonderful weekend!
Beautiful!
I love your china though! It is so much fun to pull it out and use it.
