Blue Ridge dessert plates

Happy Vintage Thingy Thursday




I wanted to show these 2 plates today, even though they are hanging to prove to us that we never have put the molding up near the ceiling to finish our cabinets. :)  These belong to a set of 8 dessert plates that my Grandmother gave me.  They all feature different fruit, and not the prettiest ever but oh, so sentimental.  They are Blue Ridge Southern Potteries.   Is that funny or what?  Ya'll know I'm a southern gal but my G'ma is anything but...she resides in Massachusetts and has her whole life.  I had the rest displayed in my dining room until I moved that antique wardrobe you can see thru the door.  It now lives in the dining room to hold dish collections.  I'll showcase my dining room for ya'll as it comes back together.

I love Vintage thingies!!  Modern...bluuccckk
Hope to make the rounds at

    Very pretty. Are they all a little different?

    I laughed when you said that your G'ma was anything but southern...living in Mass, I understand.

    I love to decorate with plates. Those are in just the right spot to enjoy every time you walk through the door! A treasure from Grandma is so precious...

    Those are really cute plates! I don't think I've ever seen any like them. Now I want to see what's in that other room!
    Happy VTT!

    The plates are so pretty. I love vintage things too and they are even better when they come from family.

    Lovely plates! I'm a southern gal too, but a little further east then you. We are in the Sunshine state, and I love it!
