Friday Show and Tell – Everyday Dish Storage

Show and Tell Friday is hosted by Kelli at There is No Place Like Home

Today I would like to share the items I use for holding my everyday dishes in the kitchen. The dinner plates and a serving bowl are right on the other side of the kitchen sink on a three-tiered stand.



















The pattern is an all-over floral pattern (or chintz) called "Bermuda Blue" and is by Churchill, made in England. I bought the serving bowl, four cereal bowls and dinner plates back in 1993 when I was attending a conference near London.
















This stand came from Marshalls. It is a dark green metal with twining leaves applied along both sides of the curved handle.




















At Christmas time it holds holiday dishes.

The everyday cereal bowls and rimmed soup bowls and dessert plates are kept in a vintage dish rack I found at a consignment shop in a nearby town. It is located on the other side of the sink.




















It is metal painted in blues, yellow, pink and white on black. The lower section holds one dozen plates vertically.















On the top are four cereal bowls which my mother and I use for breakfast most days.














Nearby on the counter is a mug rack which holds matching mugs. These are used for hot beverages such as hot chocolate or for Roma, a grain beverage from Switzerland.



















Having the day-to-day dishes all stored by the sink keeps them always accessible, and makes it easy to replace the dishes after washing and drying them. They also serve as displays to carry out the blue and white color theme.
