Famille Rose ~ New China

/4 Comments/in , /by

 

 

Good Morning Friends,

And it has been another super busy week for me at the office. I am looking forward to this upcoming 3-day weekend. I intend on getting caught up on house chores that I have not been able to get to. Like washing my cabinet doors and curtains. I also plan on ordering a few things for the boutique but we will see how that goes. I did order the floral pearl cluster earrings and when I opened the package they were the ugliest earrings I have ever seen! Sorry but I want to be honest. So those will not be going on the website. They looked so wonderful and elegant online but in person….. no thanks.

I have a new find alert! I did check out some new china on the Williams Sonoma website. I saw it online and thought I need to go and see this in person. The china did not disappoint…..

I saw this set online and had to order it. I ordered the boxed appetizer plates first. After I ordered this set I knew that I had to get more. Aren’t they stunning? This is called the Famille Rose collection for Williams Sonoma. It is microwave safe and dishwasher safe.  This collection is inspired by Chinese porcelain. The collection has beautiful details of floral and fauna. 

 

 

Once my appetizer plates arrived I knew that I wanted more pieces. This particular design was inspired by traditional Chinese porcelain. Love all of the colors! 

 

 

I couldn’t stop there and kept walking around the store to find more pieces. I then found these. They come in 3 different colors. I chose to get the pink rim and blue rim. I love the eye-catching color palette and the embellished floral motif.

I decided to play around with layering the plates. It was so much fun coming up with different combinations. 

 

 

Oh be still my heart….

 

 

 

Another item that I ordered where these Lily of the Vally wine goblets from the new Monique Lhuillier collection.

 

 

I love this glassware collection. It’s an everyday luxury. I am already using them for our everyday dinners. I also use them for my morning breakfasts.

I am really enjoying my new china plates from Williams Sonoma and my new wine goblets. You guys know that I am a firm believer in using what you have and I am using my new pieces. I only purchased a few. The store didn’t have complete sets of everything. So I just purchased what I liked. I may order full sets down the road but for right now I will enjoy these myself. Have a wonderful weekend everyone!

    Hi Mrs. Shockley,

    Ohhh- those plates! Thank you for doing a review. I just ordered the blue rim plates and the blue mix salad plates. My husband will wonder why on earth I ordered more dinnerware. Lol. He ordered the rest of the Delamere Spode collection for Christmas for me. But that’s ok.I have began my collection of high quality dinnerware and I know these wont disappoint. This will be my first set of floral dinnerware. I’m thinking these will be perfect for Easter. I found beautiful cloth napkins with a matching tablecloth from Rachel Ashwell from HomeGoods that will go so well with the plates.The etched glasses may be next. So, so pretty. Much like you, I have fun arranging my table settings to come up with ideas. Like Jennifer L. Scott said, “Homemakers should have fun too”.

    Take care,

    Mya

      So happy you ordered them. My husband thinks the same thing. These plates would be perfect for Easter. I hope you are able to get the goblets soon. I do love them. Jennifer is right, we should have fun too!
