I love these dishes :) I've been buying them one at a time at yard sales for about 10 years now--have bought them in ME, VT, NY, and now in OH! :) I figure that I'll have a nice set about the time we start using "real" dishes (still using plastic right now, but kiddos are getting more responsible. . .) Hit the jackpot at Goodwill today and found 5 dinner plates! :) The first ones I ever bought were the coffee cups (I don't drink coffee!) and found the saucers in another state! Anyhow. . .just think they're pretty.

They are pretty, Sheila. I see them every once in a while in thrift stores here. If you want, I can keep a lookout for you. Just tell me what you have and what you want. Can't remember the pattern name right now.

Wow, my daughter is collecting the same ones, she started about 5 yrs ago. Her research showed them to be from the late fiftys, and very popular then.

I have a full set of those dishes !!
My MIL gave them to me years ago
They were offered at our local grocery stores years ago
where you buy a place setting each week
I still have them packed up
they have got to be at least 60 or 70 years old because I am in my mid 50's MIL got them way before I was born.

Taylor, Smith and Taylor's 'Ever Yours' line. The pattern is "Boutonniere". I think that's it.

I collect them as well! I started collecting them for my travel trailer about 4 years ago. :)
