The Girl Who Played With Dishes

I'm thinking that should be my new blog name.
We stopped by IKEA for their yummy Swedish meatballs. You need to walk a labyrinth to exit the store. It runs thru every department...tempting you. I almost made it out and then I spotted these.

12" blue plates just the right size to use as chargers.

And they were on sale no less! For $1.99!
I can use them with at least a dozen different plates.

Chinese blue, yellow and white form Garden Ridge

The Chinese plates are in 4 different patterns.

I have the salad/dessert plates and large mugs too.

 I found four more patterns that worked with the new chargers.

 Windsor & Browne- Blue Grape Leaves: Italy

 Franciscan-Denmark: ironstone from England

 J&G Meakin-Classic Blue Nordic: ironstone from England

Johnson Brother-Asiatic Pheasant: England

 Villeroy & Boch-Vieux Luxembourg: German porcelain

 Wisterling-Schwarzenbach: porcelain from Bavaria Germany 

 Churchill-Blue Willow: England

Longaberger-Classic Blue pottery: USA

 Salem China Co.-Olde Staffordshire English Village: ironstone from England

 Nikko: Japan

 Tiffany & Co. New York: Royal Worcester England

Queens-Thanksgiving: England

Windsor & Browne: Italy

Villeroy & Boch-Amapola: porcelain from Germany

 Thomson pottery: China

Longaberger-Cornflower: pottery USA

summing up:

Dinner for two and 4 new chargers- $13.72

plus tax.

A yummy deal!
