Oh, Oh, Oh,
Please make bird feeders out of the cup and saucers!!!
They look so victorian, I would love to have one that delicate looking in my garden, among the flowers!
The dishes are beautiful and I know mosaics will be beautiful but I would have a hard time breaking those!!!
Good luck in your projects!

Oh those are gorgeous. I saw some similar at the estate sale I went to, small saucers, but after being in the sun all day, I was ready to go home so I didn't get to bid on them. I don't blame you for getting them.

What a great find! They are similar to some I bought to mosaic with. It was difficult breaking them but like so many china pieces, they were only a few pieces.

Just a note ... if you do mosaics and like to nip your pieces ahead of time to use on the future projects, be careful with the old china. For some reason, when air hits the inside of the pieces, it discolors it very badly. If you are using older china, make sure you break it/nip it when you need it to avoid the discoloration!

Oh my! How beautifully colorful! I agree that it would be very hard to break those but I can't wait to see what you do with them. Nice find!

Oh Wow, that is a beautiful set of dinnerware. What's the name on the back of them, are you sure you don't have a vintage set worth big bucks???? Find the name and then type it in your web browser line and see what comes up. I'd also check them on eBay - just type the name in the search box and see is someone is selling that pattern. Or, I'd even take them to an antique dealer, I think you've got some cash there.

They are BEAUTIFUL!!! Break away!!! They will make some beautiful projects. Please keep us posted on your progress.

Nice! I have a set of 8 place settings from my grandmother that is similar but with a blue band. I loved to use it for quite a few years, and now I've put it away, but I'll get it out again someday, I'm sure! I almost wish I had fewer pieces so I could mosaic them. Glad to hear the tip about old china discoloring when broken. Be sure to post what you make.

I guess these 'could' be considered garden junk if the swag was over a back porch and the cake stand was for a garden party ..LOL
