I enjoy hosting family dinners. My favorite times are when I use the china I received as a wedding gift from my husband’s grandmother. The only thing is it has 8 place settings and my family is growing.

I went to replacements.com to see if I could get more. They have you take a photo of a dinner plate, front and back, and describe it including: plate style, background color, rim color, design and colors in the design. If they do not have it in stock, they have buyers who look at estate sales and garage sales for them.

They did not have my china in stock, but I hope to get more settings before my Christmas dinner.
