Plates

I've been collecting an assortment of plates on my op shop visits lately. I love the antique floral, the modern and the retro, what ever takes my fancy I buy and see how they all look together. I'm planning on creating a plate wall feature in my new kitchen.



Inspired by these gorgeous images (sorry I have forgotten where I found these images, if they are yours please let me know so I can credit you).



And this little box set beauty was found on my recent trip to Daylesford, I've been eyeing them off online for a while and finally bought them as a birthday gift to me. Rob Ryan is so talented and each plate comes with a lovely meaningful saying. I'll be finding a special spot on my wall for these too.



Playing along with Flea Market Finds at Her Library Adventures.

Have a happy week everyone!
