Day Six of Fall

CHINA-DISHES-COLLECTIBLES
Another big category of dust collectors and space-robbers! I have 2 sets of china with coffeepot, teapot, sugar & creamer in the bottom of my china cabinet. Then I have the ones we use daily. I also have an inherited set of Blue Willow in the barn.
I have started going through the collectibles and taken some to donation centers. The less I have the more I can enjoy what I DO have.
Some collectibles are from our ancestors. Those I will keep and pass on. Family Museum Curator or Clutter Archivist?

China is one of my hardest things to part with. I was glad to read that someone else still has more than one set!
LOVE the blog!

Carol, my mother loved dishes; I love dishes; my aunt loved dishes and I suspect my Grandmother did also. It's in our genes. :) I thought my kids would want some but I don't think so now. I'll keep it as long as I can. n
