and welcoming message on each one.
I'm especially drawn to red and white transferware plates and...
like many of you, enjoy hanging them on the wall. These are in the dining room.
Talk about frugal decorating...the plate hangers cost more than some of these flea market plates!
This is a little grouping over my daughter's bed...we bought these sweet little purple plates at a B & B in England...they bring back happy memories.
Last Saturday night I decided to arrange some plates over our bed. It's amazing how many ways you can drive yourself crazy trying to lay out just six plates!
And here they are on the wall. (DH finally noticed when he slid into bed and asked sleepily, "Are those plates above my head?")
After DH fell asleep under his plethora of plates, I headed to the computer to relax with my favorite blogs...only to find that sisters Erika and Miriam at Be Book Bound had just published this photo. I love how these red and white plates look in their dining room.
So of course I had to click around see what other bloggers had done with plates. Aren't the colors in this arrangement wonderful? They make me long for spring! The photo was posted by Melaine at My Sweet Savannah.
Now that I have my plates arranged...at least for now...I want thank all of the bloggers who took the time to send me craft and fundraising ideas for our team to use to raise money for the American Cancer Society at this year's Relay for Life.
Aren't these ribbon pins adorable? This sweet idea was sent by Laura...
Who also sent this...Yum!

Your plate displays are very pretty! I especially love the ones over your bed.
your plates look great, love the rooster one.
Love the plate idea! I think I will try this in my kitchen - thanks for sharing!
Oh my hubby would really think it was a bit odd too. Looks great how you arranged them. I love red plates, so pretty.

Love the plates over your bed. I thought of that idea once but figured my husband would think I'd really lost it. lol Maybe in the diningroom. Glad you got some fund raising ideas. Pamela
What a fabulous find. Love the roosters and all of your displays are wonderful. Hugs, Marty
I love the red and white plates above your bed. They look so nice with your flowered pillows. I've collected blue and white transferware for years, but after seeing all the red and white featured during the Christmas season, I want some of those, too! I would love a large serving platter like yours!
Those cookies are such a good idea!
I love plates! Oh my they do call my name. The red transferware plates are lovely and hard to find around here it seems. The newer plates are so cheerful and happy! hugs, Linda
