Happy Monday fellow design lovers. Last week, I put out a request for your design dilemmas and today I’m here to help.
Thank you to everyone who submitted questions, I wish I could have answered them all, and so I hope we get to do this again sometime…
The first question is from dantimdad:

My home is gradually being remodeled. Since I love mid-century modern, it's being set back to it's 60's roots. My question comes from a gift of 8 franciscan starburst salad plates. I can't fathom paying the prices being asked for the rest of the set except for a few key serving pieces. What currently available dishes would you think would coordinate well with this pattern and not break the bank? BTW, I will be building an MCM china cabinet soon to hold the dishes.
I’ve always believed in having a basic collection of white plates and servingware and playing it up with colorful, pattered dishes and linens. I think this concept works perfectly with your Franciscan collection because you definitely want them to be the star (pardon the pun) of the show.
