Displaying Black and White Plates..





I found these beautiful antique plates at an estate sale....


  The black and gray colors pool together looking like soft water colors...

I fell in love with them....
aren't they gorgeous?

  3. I love black and white plates. They're not that common.

    I had a chance to visit Kelly McGuill's house and not only is it gorgeous, she is one of the nicest, giving people I've ever met.

  7. Julie,
    I do love the plates, black and white are favorites, next to blue and white. There are a couple of rooms you've shared that I adore...the piano and framed items with the plates is my favorite. I hope you'll share where you end up displaying them, great find.

  11. We can see these displayed on a book shelf with some great black and white books - modern yet traditional. What a great find.

  12. Julie,

    Gorgeous plates! I really like your idea of displaying them in a black and white kitchen or space, although my inclination would not too much black so that the plates can be the stars of the show :-) I wonder how they'd look in a room with a pop of red, pink, turquoise or green?

    Sorry I've been "hiding" for a while. Been crazy busy with several large projects. Happy problem...

    Cheers,
    john

  25. I love black & white all the time, but the arrangement of black & white plates with the blue & white ones is so unexpected, and I love it!

    I love picking up pieces that I have no idea where they will end up, but I just find a home somewhere for them. It makes it even more personal sometimes.
