Do you have it?

Is it stored away someplace hard to get to?

Mine is...

But I like to use other people's.

...Wondering what I am talking about?

Silver, China & Crystal that's what.

And I talked about it with Anita & Yvonne too on the Podcast.

Episode #13 is all about Using Silver, China & Crystal.

You can listen right here,  Just click the little arrow.

We three have funny stories and lots of ideas on how you can use your own silver, china & crystal.

Or go vintage and use somebody else's, like I prefer to do.  I LOVE my set of vintage spoons from the World Fair.  

Anita loves hotel silver and I am thinking I might have to start looking for that too.

Yvonne scored a whole set of silver thanks to karma.

I use vintage silver in with it's tarnished patina all over my house.

Sugar & creamers hold pretty flowers and another holds sea salt.

A stack of silver trays makes a pretty display in the dining room and makes it is so easy to grab one to use.

I primarily use my silver trays as the foundation of vignettes.

On the coffee table, the breakfront, in my office and on the foyer table.  Just about any where I have vignette I have a tarnished silver tray under it.

You can scoop them up for a song.  We'll not the way I sing, but you know what I mean.  

I have been using my crystal candlesticks since we unpacked here.

Seemed a shame to  pack them back up & tuck away in a closet.

I do love the way the light reflects off the candlesticks.

So what do you have packed away?

Listen to all our ideas for using silver, china and crystal, then go pull out your "good" stuff and use it!

Everyday is a special occasion, so don't save it just for holidays.

And if you don't have silver, china or crystal learn how we three score it these days for a fraction of its value. 

Get some and enjoy the beauty of the "good stuff" everyday.

Oh and don't forget we are celebrating and have the $100 Visa gift card to give away.  Details on how to enter are here.

Good luck and have a wonderful day!
