Forget Paper Plates…

More picnic plates for summer!

I recently discovered these custom melamine plates from iomoi via Chinoiserie Chic.


They can be customized with your choice of text and font. And while they definitely cost most than a package of paper plates, you can justify the expense by knowing you’ll save money in the long run. Not to mention the whole green aspect of it…









Also a cute option for kids’ gifts, shower gifts, etc.






Adorable.

And plates are just the beginning…iomoi offers custom stationery and tons of different accessories for the home. See more HERE.

Sharyn Blond Linens

I came across this linens shop website recently (sadly I can’t remember where I saw it…) and I wish it was in DC instead of Kansas City.

Shayn Blond, has a wonderful eye. Her selection ranges from traditional to whimsical, but never strays from her obvious good taste. Apparently she is a bit of an expert on fine china, crystal and silver (these are a few of my FAVorite things…la-la-la-la…). Which is clear to me from the styling of her website images.

Love these. (See the Imari plate in the first one? That was almost my china pattern!)

Inside Anthro and an Opportunity

I just love these table settings that Cassandra of coco+kelly put together for Anthropologie.





Have a favorite? Let her know.

In light of her new responsibilities with that dream job, she’s looking for some regular contributors for coco+kelly. My darling Christy sent me a link suggesting I apply, but honestly, I don’t think I have the time or the design talent that would be required. Do you? Check it out.
