china cabinet.. displaying china?

How did you display your fine china in your china cabinet? I'm drawing a blank.. the only thing I can think of is just stacking the dishes and separating them by size lol which isn't really creative and doesn't really display them well lol.... I don't have those grooves in the back of the shelves of the china cabinet where I can stand the dish up straight so I'm limited there...

any ideas? I'd love to hear how you ladies displayed that lovely china of yours.... pics would be great!

Thanks!!!

Re: china cabinet.. displaying china?

You can try using plate easels for just a few of the plates, like the stores do for their displays, put a cup and saucer in front of each plate. Store the rest of the china in the closed part of the cabinet.
I store mine in canvas plate and cup keepers to keep them from chipping.

a trick to plate and cup storage : use paper basket type coffee filters between the plates to keep them from scratching each other.

You can find plate easels in Michael's too...they have quite a variety.

Re: china cabinet.. displaying china?

I got a wood thing from ikea and I was able to have them standing up on them one behind the other largest to smallest. I only have 1 on display and the others are in china protectors.

Re: china cabinet.. displaying china?

I purchased mine at BBB, but they were in the frame and album department so I am thinking they weren't meant for plates, but they work just as well.
