Happy Show and Tell Friday! Today I'm sharing some of my plates that I have hanging all along the ceiling of my kitchen. It took me awhile to collect enough of these to go all the way around.
In addition to the traditional transferware plates, I also have some souvenir plates. I think I found both of these on eBay a few years ago. One is from Boston and the other shows different covered bridges in New England. I'm a California gal but I just love New England! I don't think I could live there because I've only lived in the mild climate of California and I could never handle the humidity in the summer and the cold winters but it sure is a beautiful place to visit!
At Christmas I have to remove some of them to hang on my blue and white dining room Christmas tree....

Your blue plates are beautiful! I spent part of my week, in Minnesota at the Betty Crocker Kitchens, so I'm sharing a dessert that we made there.
Thanks so much for hosting!

P.S. So sorry. I made an error in the above post and deleted it.
Loved the plates, Cindy. Just darling and they look so nice in your bright and cheerful kitchen.
And, of course, I'm so happy you love New England. That's where I live and it truly is a beautiful area of the country. I love the four seasons, including winter! I love face-freezing weather. The humidity in summer, yeah, is not the best but it doesn't last long. ha!
Autumn is splendorous here and spring is also rejuvenating.
Take care and have a nice Friday! Susan

Dearest Cindy,
Blue & White transferware always looks great! We do have several pieces from my Mother-in-law, some Dutch Boerenhoeve pattern, from 1930s Société Céramique Blue.
Thanks for sharing your lovely collection!

Hi cindy!

I love your gorgeous collection of plates! They look wonderful on the wall there too.
I also loved seeing your Christmas tree decorated with your blue and whites! I have Christmas on my mind too and have linked up some Christmas ideas from my new Christmas blog!
Best wishes for a fun weekend,
Natasha.
Using your plates as decor in the kitchen is such a great idea. Fridays are my favorite because of your "Show and Tell". How fun to see the collections and artistry and giftings of so many gathered into one place. Thanks for being the gracious hostess. Blessings.
I love the blue and white. So pretty! Thanks for hosting again.
Very beautiful and what a great way to decorate and heighten the room!

What a fabulous collection. I love Show and Tell. Just posted mine:-)
Cindy you have a beautiful collection!! I love it!! And your kitchen is wonderful! I would do some damage in that kitchen making all sorts of goodies. The blue plates are a perfect match!! Blue is my favorite color and I have a weakness for tea cups and tea sets...so your tree would have to stay up year 'round at my house!!
-April
Wow! What a gorgeous kitchen! Your Christmas tree is incredible! Can't wait to see what you do with the rest of your house for the Holidays! Regards, Sheilla

Your beautiful kitchen just goes to show that small can be beautiful...especially for those of us who hate cooking, sugar! I'd prefer to eat out 5 nights a week and then have a chef prepare the other 2 nights. Works for me, chickee!!!

Cindy - The tree is delightful! Your plates are wonderful, of course. Thanks for hosting!
Cindy I love your plates, I have a
set of blue transfer ware and I
have started a red set. I have vintage cherry bowls all around my
kitchen. I love your Christmas tree
with all the tea cups and plates.
You are just too darn creative.":O)
I love your blue and white transfer ware plates. Neat idea with the Christmas tree. How do you hook those on?
Thanks so much for Show and Tell Friday... it fits my life these days with all of the things that I have inherited from my parents in the past two years. It gives me a chance to write about them and to reflect on some wonderful years.
Have a great weekend.

I just wanted to invite you over to read my post for Kelee's party.
