a colorful tablescape...

My mom found this colorful china for me at a garage sale when I was still in highschool. The set was complete with serving bowls, a cake stand, dinner & salad plates, cups & saucers, and cute cute soup bowls. She knew I would like it's asian influence and color, I did, and still do! I have never had a meal on this china, but it makes for a great tablescape, I think! Now that I can actually cook, I will have to host a dinner party with this set! I have also used the dinner plates as wall art in my new dining room!
