    One of the things I've noticed in the store Anthropolgie is that they have such lovely plates. One day I'm totally going to do the wall plates because I think it looks so pretty. =)

    Wanted you to know that I've started my very own plate wall. My kitchen walls are granny smith apple green. I'm awaiting the arrival of the first three vintage black and white plates from Etsy. I'll send you pics when it is complete. Thank you for the inspiration.

    I love plates on walls! My grandmother had a wall of plates in her old kitchen. She gave me a lot of them...I treasure them. I just have to find a place on the wall for them! :)

    What a great post, I love plate walls. Box Interior Design recently designed a restaurant in Vancouver and installed XL plates inspired by designer Piero Fornasetti. Enjoy!

    Hmmmm, wondering what the "new obsessions" will be? Hope you don't lose the plate wall obsession completely. Obviously you have me a wee bit obsessed with them as well ;)

    Hope you had a fantastic weekend dahling!
