If there’s one thing I’ve realized after registering, getting married, moving, packing, and unpacking, it’s what you can really use and need in a new space and what you don’t. I have to say that despite the hubs’ total annoyance at the amount of platter, plates, bowls, and cups we have, I still don’t think we have enough. I also don’t think we have nearly enough interesting vases and bowls. Yes, I have “vessels” to put flowers in, but they’re still so hodge podge after all these years that I actually wished I’d registered for more. Sorry, men of the world, but I really don’t think it’s possible to have enough serving platters, either!
With that said, lately I’ve been on the lookout for more vases/serving bowls/platters that have a unified style. There’s that old decorating rule that you should display similar items in two’s and three’s, and I’m definitely discovering lately that I don’t have enough of that going on. I’m also trying to lighten up the dark pieces of furniture I have with white accents, which is why I’m drawn to these vases and bowls from Crate and Barrel’s latest catalogue. I’m loving their early fall inspiration vibe, and think these would be perfect accents to register for if you’re looking for versatile yet unique display pieces.
