    Default What kind of dishes do you use for everyday?

    I use Summer Chintz by Johnson Brothers.  My grandmother had this pattern, and I always liked it.

    Some Martha Stewart plates from K-Mart. The other everyday dishes (cups, saucers, soup bowls, dessert etc.) are a collection of different all-white ones from garage sales.

    We have a collection of Kaleidoscope Pottery - its a small local artist who does things with leaves. Very pricey, but worth it (its beautiful and supports a local artist!) I usually pick up one or two pieces a year when they have their "seconds" sale.

    I just have some hand-me-down stoneware my mom gave me when she got sick of it...I don't know the name...I've never been able to afford decent dishes and I'm not sure I could find any I like enough to spend the money on...

    Sara,

    I love pottery. I collect pieces here and there. I checked out the website and I've never seen that type of design before.
