Coming Soon - The Spare Plate - A Space to Re-Home Tableware
OUR HONORED GUESTS
One of the greatest joys I have experienced from sharing my tables is the unexpected reaction of meeting so many friends, even from around the world. I feel that I could get a plane ticket, fly to their location and sit at their tables feeling as if we had known each other for years. That is why I wanted a GUEST section on this site. I want to share my friends!
Welcome to my guest, DeeDee Ellison! I was immediately impressed by her tablescaping. Her tables stand out and are in a category all their own, displaying her fabulous collection of china and beautiful accessories. I love that she writes about the origin of her treasures. DeeDee’s linens are priceless and show hours of artistic handiwork. You could say I pedestal her, recognizing outstanding talent and care for antiquity. When DeeDee replied to my posts that she liked them, I was overwhelmed. Those first replies became an introduction to a sweet friendship I treasure. DeeDee’s heart and encouragement are her real “priceless treasures.”
DEE DEE ELLISON
My name is Dee Dee Ellison and I am a writer, designer and china enthusiast and collector. I have been collecting china and designing tables for the past thirty years.
My love of china and beautiful things began with my mother and grandmothers who were also collectors. My mother especially fostered the love of exquisite things. She taught my sister and I how to dress a table when we were very young. While she was quite traditional, I love the mix of different china patterns and crystal to create eclectic tables with an emphasis on antique china and silver. I also adore antique linens especially tablecloths.
I love designing tables not just for the beautiful things but for the emotional experience of sharing, family, stories and fellowship.
Our always honored guests
