Re: Who makes your everyday dishes? New question on bottom of page 1

janwinterbridejoy- I love your dishes! The colors are gorgeous!

Mine are also Pfalzgraff- the Misson Flower pattern.

ETA: The settings for my china are $25 each- typical Pfalzgraff is from $20 to $30 a setting. I got some serving pieces for my shower but I also got several pieces online for a great price.

Pfalzgraff.com has TONS of patterns, to give you an idea of what's out there- they have a great range.

Yikes, we have Corelle and I didn't think it was cheap at all. I guess I'm REALLY cheap.

Re: Who makes your everyday dishes? New question on bottom of page 1

Is it absolutely INSANE to spend about 600 for everyday dishes?

Umm...JMO, but YES! I personally think you should be cheaper with your every day dishes, because they go through a lot of wear and tear and if something breaks, you won't feel so guilty.

Re: Who makes your everyday dishes? New question on bottom of page 1

for a setting of 8 its only 200 but then I wanted the matching 16oz glasses and the matching 8 oz juice glasses...which turned into the matching flatware and the matching napkin holder..ooh cant forget the matching salt and pepper shakers and some matching bakeware as well....I get a little crazy about having stuff match.
Can you tell?

Re: Who makes your everyday dishes? New question on bottom of page 1

I have a crate & barrel set. They were $37 per place setting (4 pieces - dinner dish, salad plate, cereal bowl, mug) and I thought that was a little expensive. But it was on my registry so I did it. If I had to do it again, I'd go slightly cheaper, maybe $15 - $25 per setting.

All the accoutrements really do add up though

Well, on the one hand it seems like a lot, but if you apply the cost-per-use formula (like if you use them daily and get a few years out of them) then I could see justifying the expense.

I did not register for fine china, so I wanted nice casual dishes with all the serving pieces (bowls, canisters, platters, etc) and I spent a good amount of my own money.

You could also look at it from the POV of the fact that you already spent a lot of money to renovate your kitchen. $600 might be a small amount of the total cost. And if it really "completes" the look, then go for it.

Just wanted to follow up because I got new dishes today!


I like them because they tie in to the granite and pull the kitchen and dining roll colors together.

Yes it is!
We went in with every intention of muying the "Cappuccino" set but then we saw this and started talking about the colors in our kitchen and such and next thing we were on line.

I asked the same thing when I was registering...because my every day dishes cost just as much per place setting as my china!!!

I have Denby Charcoal and I love them! I don't regret doing it.
