China and dinnerware

Ever since I read about smartbargains, I've been combing the places I know of to find rose dinnerware. I have searched replacementsltd, rubylane, and smartbargains. Are there any places ya'll can recommend. I'm not looking for collectors items, just pretty dishes. I found one I love but the pattern is discontinued. I prefer something I can put in dishwasher.

Thank you,
Carla

Got a set of Noritake "Wedding Veil" china - service for 12. Thought they were quite pretty when we bought them back in the late 70s. Anyone familiar with this pattern? The blue was nice during the year and also at the holidays - used a blue and silver theme instead of the more traditional red & green. Saved on having special holiday dishes. Doesn't seem to be popular any more. Just wanted opinions about how it looks to you.

Depends on your rose taste Carla. In the decorating gallery, a lady named Judith has photos of her table and used Pfaltzgraff Silk Rose that does go on sale at Macy's 50% off last I looked. The photo should be in here under Valentines table IIRC... and I also found Lenox "Accoutrements" Dinnerware Collection which is more my style.

Thanks roselvr---somehow I got over to the Home Decoration Forum and saw the post of table settings by Judithva-----

Her place settings are gorgeous

It is a new Forum to me and I think I am in trouble----So may beautiful things

Carla, replacements.com didn't have more pieces of the pattern that you liked? They specialize in carrying pieces of patterns that are discontinued. Like my Mikasa White Silk.

Florence, I could spend hours at the decorating forum. They have 3 sections, I check the off topic just about every day, there are more people there then here any more.

Carla, I think I sent you the link before I moved. If you actually read her posts (instead of only looking at pics) she shops at places like Marshalls, Ross & TJ Maxx. I don't know where she finds room to store everything lol

What kind of dish pattern are you looking for? I know of another pattern that I was going to buy but am unsure of now. I have the glasses that go to it, not sure if I want printed dishes now.

I need to commit to new dishes too but this whole shopping for the new house is a lot of work. I ordered my son furniture back in June, it never came in; turns out they discontinued it. I went and purchased the floor model Sunday, spent 3 hours at sears. We got it home yesterday, Charlie is setting it up and after waiting 3 months the bed frame is huge. I don't know if I can get a frame that will work with the headboard only :(

Funny story. We had a yard sale in July and I had my first dishes boxed up for years. When I saw them, I kept them and am getting rid of the other ones.
I'm not in the market for dishes now.

You know Carla, I didn't realize this post was OLD!!!! dumb, dumb, blond...

Florence Main forum then look it will say On-Topic Discussions [Switch to: Gallery : Conversations]

Just like here but they have their gallery linked in a different spot.

I used to go there a lot, don't have time since moving.
