Well, I finally committed to buying a new set of everyday dishes, and once again I ended up with a choice by Mikasa! Approximately 15 years ago I selected a pattern called Brywood by Mikasa. I was certain I could live with it forever, and I did try! Finally as the years passed and my tastes changed I couldn't stand it anymore and decided on Mikasa's Italian Countryside. It's simple, clean lined and will not dictate too much style.
In the meantime, what to do with my old dishes. I won't let them go, because they are sentimental to me and let's face it, I paid a lot for them!
Soooo..... after much contemplating, I finally remembered this hidden area in my cabinet that has items in it that I completely forget about.....so everything came out and the dishes went in and I got a chance to straighten up the cupboard! That's always a good thing!
And now my new Mikasa has a home!
I love your new hidden area for all your Beautiful Dishes, this was a great Idea, I need to do this with all my dishes I have.~~Thanks

Liz, thanks for stopping by and for the nice comment. I love my Italian Countryside, but would love to get a white pattern, as well. I think I am going to wait until after I move, though. Next time you post a tablescape with your Italian Countryside, be sure to post on the Mikasa facebook site. Meg will post it to their wall, as well. They've posted a couple of mine. Have a great day!
ReplyDeleteHi Liz, I love your new white Mikasa dishes - my next set of dishes is going to be white ones too! You're lucky to have the space to store your old set. I'm sure you'll have fun creating tablescapes with them! ~Marcy
ReplyDeleteThose dishes are beautiful too Liz! Can't wait to see your new ones on a table setting.
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by Liz, and for your lovely comment. I just went to your Mikasa post and it is gorgeous, love the china! Your new hidden areas are great, it's also a good idea and for all the other appliances too, very nice.
