Unfortunately, the ADHD is the least of it.Beth Connollyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10443450944645563476noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2395859504434574133.post-53244095772331832132020-07-18T02:54:06.507-04:002020-07-18T02:54:06.507-04:00Love your taste.

You picked such fabulous patterns.<br /><br />I have my grandmother's Limoges China and just registered for Pillyvuyt basketweave and Apilco hemstitch from Williams Sonoma when I got married.<br />Smart on my part bc I do have a 5 year old with ADHD.

I think it started when I saw the Royal Crown Derby Imari teacups in the movie "Crimson Peak," and now it's completely out of hand! And I looooove cloth napkins. I have a pristine monogrammed set from Leontine Linens that will never, ever touch anyone's lips. Instead we use Crate and Barrel's Spectra napkins, which come in multi-color sets and are so easy to toss in the wash.Carriehttp://disneytravelbabble.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2395859504434574133.post-21494702080029161232020-07-15T18:42:40.670-04:002020-07-15T18:42:40.670-04:00I am a Fitz & Floyd fan and collector.I am a Fitz & Floyd fan and collector.Beth Connollyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10443450944645563476noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2395859504434574133.post-73793797604216354672020-07-15T18:42:03.150-04:002020-07-15T18:42:03.150-04:00Those are all lovely.

My favorite patterns are Meissen Blue Onion, Spode India Tree (rust) for Thanksgiving, and Haviland Vieux Paris vert. I stalk eBay and etsy for individual pieces. One super fun thing is having Replacements, Ltd. identify two old crystal patterns I inherited so I can complete the sets. I do love your Chinese tigers!!Stephttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02877042735847669452noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2395859504434574133.post-24389577155377824472020-07-14T23:41:23.098-04:002020-07-14T23:41:23.098-04:00I just looked that up - I was not familiar with it...I just looked that up - I was not familiar with it - very pretty.Beth Connollyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10443450944645563476noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2395859504434574133.post-30008733805739160092020-07-14T23:37:36.483-04:002020-07-14T23:37:36.483-04:00I have read not to use dishwashing detergent with ...I have read not to use dishwashing detergent with lemon or citrus and not to put the sterling in the same compartment with stainless and you will be fine.Beth Connollyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10443450944645563476noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2395859504434574133.post-46907089552010376022020-07-14T23:34:48.724-04:002020-07-14T23:34:48.724-04:00Grand Colonial is my wedding silver and I just lov...Grand Colonial is my wedding silver and I just love Mottahedeh Blue Canton!Stephttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02877042735847669452noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2395859504434574133.post-91464150385224841912020-07-14T23:30:44.857-04:002020-07-14T23:30:44.857-04:00Cloisonne Peony (Fitz & Floyd) - peach and pur...Cloisonne Peony (Fitz & Floyd) - peach and purple flowers on a black background - still stunning after all these years.

I need to do some research. I think there are a few pointers to keep it safe. Many couples do not get wedding china now--but I know some still do. Our son and daughter in law received wedding china 18 years ago--but I know things have changed since then. We live close to a china shop and I see selections made by brides and grooms there from time to time.
