I Heart Plates

I have always wanted to hang plates above my bed, but had never seen a picture for inspiration to confirm my idea. Until, I discovered The Nester and feel in love with the look!

Since my walls are blue and my bedding has color I decided to go with all white plates! I love them and they really pop against the blue walls!
My husband likes to say that if he gets hungry in the middle of the night he will just reach up and grab a plate to eat off of. Not exactly what I had in mind:)

Just beautiful. I love the bedding and the plates! You and I have similar tastes--looks like we have the same bedroom set! :)

Oh I'm so glad I came back to look at your blog again--so many fun posts and so many of them hit home with me!

My little two year old would have such a good time with your Blake. Handsome loves getting into mischief and often pulls his pants down to look at his "chubby chubbers" (aka his thighs)!

Your bedroom looks gorgeous with that fluffy bedding, paint color, and white plates. I *love* your master bathroom and I think the addition of the monogrammed towels is perfect. We've mostly redone our master bathroom too (still need to add some trim pieces) but I haven't splurged on towels yet...I keep getting distracted by cute clothes for my children instead!

That is really stunning. Very elegant on the blue wall. And your bedding is gorgeous.

BEAUTIFUL! It took me a few moments to realize that the picture was of YOUR room and not your inspiration :) I love dishes and white always looks so classic on a wall with color. Great Choices!

Oh yes...and since I'm a real life friend, I can testify that they look even better in person! =)

What type of plate hangers do you use? Beautiful bedroom, by the way!!

Hi Anne, the plate hangers are gold metal and they sell them at Hobby Lobby or Michaels (or probably any craft store)!
