Postmedia/Clear plates have long been considered too dated; however, these ones from IKEA hit the mark of being fashion forward and stylish. Scalloped edges and carved details give it a traditional nod without being over the top. Perfect for pairing with boldly coloured accents.Postmedia/Polka dots are hot in fashion so it was only a matter of time before you found them in home design. Fun and lighthearted, this pattern has a pop art quality. Mix all the different plates together to create a more casual look or pair them with more neutral colours to introduce a pop.
Who says all the patterns of dish ware have to match?
Break the mould, and choose unmatched dishes instead. This goes a long way to creating an eclectic table.
And if you are a guest at someone's home, don't forget to plate wisely when you're preparing a dish to bring over. We eat with our eyes first so plating is everything and will make or break the appeal of your meal. The dish can be a great hostess gift as well, saving you from having to tote it home and wash it.
