White dishes..so versatile..Until a few years ago, I didn't have any. Then a gal who I met on the Holidays Forum at Garden Web, Judith, said everyone should have a set of white and cream...I bought the white, not the cream..
So before the Big Lots craze, I got a set of 12 of the Gibson at LinensNThings, with a coupon of course!

But then I saw others I like too...Pier One provided the coupe shaped bowls I used for Part 1...

And I didn't use the Gibson set either this time...

I used these..

Ever hear of them? I didn't...I googled it and it seems they are made in Israel..
Thin, plain white with a rim..

So what would be my other color...blue, pink...black..red..??

So this made my decision...a few lavender hydrangeas that haven't fried ...

I used a lavender cloth with a sheer white cloth on top...

The white plate and soup, silver charger ..Purple stems, lavender goblets..

See the details on the water glass? (TJMaxx)

Napkins with a sprig of baby's breath, aster and lavender held by a white alabaster napkin ring (WSonoma outlet)

Pale lavender salad bowl..Christmas Tree Shop..

Individual covered casseroles, Christmas Tree Shop..white candles and tea lights and toile pitcher which was a gift .

Oh, I forgot to tell you! The white dishes and bowls I found at a small market where I get my vegetables..They have a few stores here on LI. 1.25 each! Really!
Hard to find a rimmed soup bowl for that. And it was easy to smuggle them in to the house with the groceries!
I wanted to get a few more, but I waited too long...I got 8 though, that's good enough..
Dinner?
Shrimp Piccata on a bed of parmesan spinach over angel hair...

Thank you for coming to the party!
