Diane & Louise,
That's a great idea. I'm a dish nut. If I had an extra room, I would collect dishes. Aye-yi-yi. Granny passed 9 years ago and they've just been sitting there all this time. My sister finally went to visit my Aunt, which was the requirement to get the dishes in the first place. I know that sounds bad, but a plane trip was involved. The dishes aren't all that I remembered, some I do, but most I really don't. I kept the lime green milk pitcher, the speckled pink teapot, a lovely blue oval platter, the odd green & unmatching salt & pepper shaker, the yellow sugar bowl (I do remember this). I will make a display of these items with the few pieces of new Fiesta ware I have in the window shelves. I've taken 13 different little plates of several different sizes and will hang those above the entry way into the kitchen. The bigger plates, I have chosen a few to hang around the kitchen walls. That still leaves quite a bit. Most of the dishes appear to have been made in different years. If the color matches, some of the plates have deeper lips than others. I've got about 3 or 4 different colors all together & definately 2 different patterns. I may have to ebay the coffee cups and coffee plates since I have no use for those, but I doubt I'll get enough out of it to be of any value. My sister also informed me that the shipping bill was being sent to me. I forced her to bring my half home with her, so, we'll see. Warmly, Theresa Theresa - I'm with Louise - I think you should consider using your grandmother's dishes - unless you don't particularly like them. In that case I would consider passing them on to another relative who might appreciate them, or possibly selling them or giving them away. You don't HAVE to keep them if you don't want them.
