That looks so cool.
I'd try TJ Maxx or HomeGoods to see what they've got in their china departments that would work together. One of my favorite places for browsing, Fishs Eddy Try flea markets and tag sales to see what you can come up with. For catalogues, but usually $$$ Sur La Table Horchow Even Williams Sonoma has some nice decorator plates.

HMMMMMMM I love that look!!!!!
I would recommend anthropologie, they would definitely have some that would fit the bill, take a look on their website!!!
Oh, and also, the ABC home store (the outlet in the BRONX!) would definitely have some at a good price - unfortunately there's NO ONLINE SHOPPING available for them, but since you're doing a lot of decorating you might find it worth a visit!!!!

Definetly and flea Markets-you could pick up plates for very cheap because they're usually not sold in sets. I bought a few for a play 2 years ago for pennies. * Home Goods * Garage sales.
There are no good local Flea markets on LAWN Island ABC is a great idea
TY ladies I am now going to look up the sites you gave me.. and Colette I got the pic of http://www.apartmenttherapy.com/ny - even though it is a Brocadehome photograph

Again, I submit, that's either a case of
*Great minds think alike*
OR
*FOOLS SELDOM DIFFER*

They'd probably use an outside shipping company. You could probably get a quote if you wanted. I would think it would be expensive, but I could be wrong. Years ago I worked for a trucking company and we were the cartage agent for Yellow Freight in Manhattan. For really big shipments like this there used to be all kinds of additional charges. I hated setting up the deliveries because a lot of the customers used to flip out when they heard how much it would cost to deliver it. I don't know the company this is from though, so if could differ.

Totally sneaking the computer for you right now I would say go to thrift stores too. I know random... but there are so many cool ones out there that will have great looking plates. Patchogue has this great but smelly lol store on main street that is all old stuff. I am sure they will have some plates. I would gather from all different places. I am not sure if you want to match the exact plates in the pic or not but even ebay honey... Now as for that mirror... I'd say good luck with the freight lol... I wrote you too love.

Crate & Barrell is having a 50 % off summer sale and they have some pretty plates on sale. There is also a great littlw consignment/ antique store in Oyster Bay that might have what you are looking for.
