My sister (Tammy) just gave me a whole box of my new love, Ironstone ( I call it swirly, but most of what she got was Snowwhite Regency- love that name, don't you?) I happened to have one bowl like the 3 others she gave me! I am up to 19 dinner plates! and I think 14 cups and saucers! Not bad for a new collector! This is a pretty good picture of my goldware! (These pictures were all taken in the morning with no flash)
I love the Ironstone so much that in all reality, I could use it every week and just change it's surroundings! Today I found 4 little side plates (swirly with Christmas holly on them!) I like the pineapple napkin rings too- (Pineapples represented hospitality back in the day!)
Check out other Tablescapes with Susan at Between Naps on the Porch. She is our gracious host every week. Have a blessed week!

Another beautiful table - the swirly ironstone is a classic that works with everything - as you always demonstrate.....
You did a lovely job on the table. I really like the dishes and you are fortunate to have so many. I don't know how many times I have gotten hooked on dishes only to have them discontinued in a year and wishing I had more. Thanks for the post.
This is all so pretty and elegant -- With so many dishes you'll be hostessing all the family holidays!
You set a lovely table! I'm with you- ironstone is fabulous! And your swirly dishes are just wonderful to collect. This table is so romantic and delicate.

Dawn, very lovely table...26 weeks, I remember when you did your first table, not long after I did my first...how time flies when you are having fun!
Love the Regency. I have it, too. Johnson Brothers also makes a pattern called Summer Chintz that has the same swirls with delicate flowers in pink and yellow added. I love it, too!!
It's fun to mix and match, and the Regency is always great to work with.
This is my first comment on anyone's blog!! Hope I did it right!
You did a great job on this tablescape. The table is lovely. The candles just make it!

Beautiful table -- I love the pineapple napkin rings. Simple yet luxurious!
Hi Nana,
Your table setting is elegant and just lovely. The Divine Mercy image caught my eye and I read your profile. Welcome to the Holy Roman Catholic Church! Have a blessed week!
So lovely and glamourous. I feel I am "undressed" just looking at it. Perhaps if I were wearing a 1940's bias cut evening gown. The candlelight is so beautiful!
Hi Nana,
because the time difference I come little bit late to visit you.
Whow, what a table. Looks gorgeous. This stoneware is amazing. And I like your centerpiece. It's outstanding.
Greetings, Johanna
Such a gorgeous, elegant table! The white and gold with crystal is just stunning! And your centerpiece adds a lovely touch.
I love your table! The white ironstone, crystal and lace all look so light and airy---perfect for Spring!
Wow! What a beautiful table. I love that white ironstone! The lace and crystal on the glass table is just gorgeous!
Oh...I so agree...Ironstone is fabulous, isn't it! So versatile. Your table is beautiful...love the centerpiece...so elegant. :-)
This is just beautiful. So elegant and exquisite. Thanks so much for sharing. I am also a very devote follower of the Sacred Heart of Jesus in the Hour of His Divine Mercy and of our Blessed Virgen Mary. Thank you for having them on your blog.
