those wooden plates
Friday, August 29, 2008First of all, for anyone that has ever e-mail me about my wooden plates, I apologize for not getting back to you. The truth of the matter is that my sister has bought us all of ours.
For a few years when my birthday rolled around I would ask her to add to my collection. Pretty sweet sister.
I adore these plates. And they are used daily. Mostly the small plates. For sandwiches. Or toast. Or cookies.
But I also use the bigger sizes. A lot. For holding the main serving. Or chips and dip. Or cheese and crackers. Or as a tray.
They do need to be hand washed. And dried. Which doesn't seem to bother me.
Anyhow. I finally got the information from my sister.
For anyone interested, these plates can be purchased from Gingersnap Station.
Happy Friday!

Uhm. These types of plates would suit my lifestyle very well. I don't mind washing or drying. We like to eat wherever we want, not necessarily at the table as its just two of us so something sturdy & safe would be perfect, and as "foresters," wood is good (I'll have to show hubby.). Furthermore, as you've shown us, they take a pretty picture. Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteThose are beautiful!!! They seem like they would last a lifetime!
ReplyDeleteThey are beautiful plates. You are so lucky to have such a generous sister. I always admire them in shots of your Saturday breakfasts.
ReplyDeleteoh, i think these will go on my christmas list. thanks for sharing the source, leslie.
ReplyDeleteLove these plates. And your knitting is absolutely beautiful.
ReplyDeleteI have admired your wooden plates many times, and even tried to find similar ones myself. I am so happy you shared your source. Your pictures are always so lovely!
ReplyDeleteI have been longing for those plates ever since I saw one of your cookies on them. I spot them in other places occasionally, and I just think "those are Leslie's plates!"
ReplyDeleteThanks!
Oh I am going to go all copycat on you right now and nab some!
ReplyDeleteVery pretty. I have a set of wooden bowls but I don't use them often. They aren't kid friendly. Not my kid friendly.
ReplyDeleteOh! Such a lovely and big wooden collection. Such a delight to see your signature breakfasts and other shots in them. I have a few similar plates that I enjoy using, mainly from Target. I really like using wood as an alternative that makes me feel back to nature.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous shots too! You are amazing L.!!!
They are beautiful plates!
ReplyDeleteWe sell them at Surlatable.com :) I love, love, love these plates!
ReplyDeleteI just discovered your blog via Mayfly and I am adding you to my blog list. Such awesome pics!
ReplyDeleteThose are gorgeous, what a good find!
ReplyDeleteSandwiches look so yummy!
ReplyDeleteThey look far too nice to use! But lovely too, every meal/snack must feel special on plates like that.
ReplyDeleteHave a great Labor Day Weekend. I'm busy painting my bathroom so not much knitting going on!
Oh my gosh my stomach is growling. I could take a big bite of your sandwich right about now. Yummo!
ReplyDeleteI feel your love for wooden plates. I have a few pices of wooden things and I would have more if it weren't for having to hand wash and dry them right away. Thank you for sharing sweetie.
thanks for sharing, leslie! have always loved your plates and thought I would mention that one can find these at sur la table also (I shop there online and love it!)
ReplyDeleteoh, i love wooden plates. love them. and need to start adding them to my kitchen collection. what a great birthday idea. super great.
ReplyDeleteoh. my. goodness. i have a serious soft spot for hardwood. love those plates.
ReplyDeleteOooooh, pretty! (I have Target's rendition, and while they're probably not quite as lovely, I agree they are very useful, and worth the handwashing requirements...)
ReplyDeletethese are great!
ReplyDeleteLovely! I must go look at that site...
ReplyDeleteMy aunt has those same trays! My uncle was in the Navy, and I am pretty sure he got them overseas somewhere. She also uses them all the time. It was so nice to also see them on your blog.
ReplyDeleteThose are wonderful! Now you've got me coveting them. :)
ReplyDeleteReally nice set of wooden plates and easy to use and clean.
