It's time to bring some warm colors to your table.
If you don't have a variety of plates to choose from, now is a great time to go out and start your collection. The settings don't even have to match. You can get plates from a vast number of sources at very affordable prices. These were $3.99 from my Home Goods store. Antique stores, flea markets and even second hand stores have some fun finds if your are willing to take a little time looking for the gems. Some textural design element to the plate gives it a richer feel if that's what you like. These plates have both a high gloss and a un-glossed stoneware rim. The contrast is both elegant and earthy.
If you have a restaurant, cafe or bistro—you might think about a changing of the plates to match seasonal transitions. White restaurant tableware is traditional, and a great mainstay, but this brings a little freshness to the plate...especially to your regular customers. Even if you are presenting the same food, it looks new with a new frame. That's what a plate is, a frame for your delicious, artful presentation.
