How I Organize and Store My Dish Collection

One of my most asked questions is how and where I keep my dish collection. If you’ve followed me for awhile, you’ll know that I have a lot of dishes. I figured it was finally time to share all the details of my dish pantry and how I organize and store my collection. Keep scrolling for dish organization tips.

Organize by Color

One of the easiest ways to keep track of what I have is to organize by color. It makes it much easier when I’m creating a tablescape to be able to see everything in color order. It also looks really pretty!

I love how the pastel colors are in one section.

Another question I get asked often, is where do I buy or find all my dishes. Many of them are from Homegoods, some are from the dollar store, many are vintage that I’ve found in antique shops and online from

Pink Hearts Valentines Day Tablescape

Valentines Day is just around the corner and I wanted to share this darling Pink Hearts Valentines Day Tablescape. I shared some of these photos last year in a post titled How to Mix Valentines Day Decorations into your Winter Decor, but this is the first time I’ve shared all of the details and some close up photos. I’ll also include all the sources and like items that I can find at the bottom of the post.

The Place-setting

The place-setting was inspired by the pink watercolored heart dishes. I mixed them in with some other pink dishes that I found at Homegoods. I love layering dishes and the pink heart plates matched this set I already had perfectly. To keep with a wintery theme, I used a silver leaf placemat and a scalloped silver charger.

I used some frosty white goblets, a pink napkin with silver stitching, and

Rustic Homemade Bread Recipe

I’m excited to share this simple and easy, four ingredient homemade rustic bread recipe. This recipe comes from one of my husbands favorite patients. We call this recipe Jeff’s Bread. Every evening, Jeff mixes up two batches of this rustic homemade bread recipe and then lets it raise overnight. The next morning, he bakes it up and delivers two of these delicious loaves to where ever he goes that day. He always brings some into my husbands office and he and his staff love this bread so much!

It’s simple to make and tastes so good! I asked Jeff if I could share his recipe and he said yes! I hope you love it as much as we do!

For these photos, I doubled the batch and baked it in a rectangular dutch oven baker but I usually do it in a single batch and shape it into dough balls, as some of the other photos show. It can be baked in any type of

Christmas Front Porch Decorating Ideas and Tips

I’ve been so excited to share my Christmas Front Porch Decorating Ideas and Tips with you. I partnered with Martha Stewart and Macy’s to decorate my front porch at our Highland, Utah home. This was so much fun and I loved how easy it was to do this!

The Upper Porch

I have an upper and a lower porch so I’ll break it up so you can see both sections. I used a mix of fresh greenery that I bought from a local garden store, cut branches from trees in my yard, and I also used artificial greenery from the Martha Stewart Holiday Collection at Macy’s. Mixing fresh and faux greenery is one of my favorite tips and tricks to use to decorate my porch.

In the upper flower pots, I added in the mini artificial trees into the middle of the pot. I nestled it right info the potting soil, then I

Elegant Silver and Gold Christmas Tablescape

I’ve been so excited to share the Elegant Silver and Gold Christmas Tablescape with you! I’m sharing all the details of how I put this together below. Creating Christmas/Holiday tablescapes are always so much fun for me and I look forward to the special memories our family will create sitting around this table.

The Details of the Tablescape

I have always loved Lenox dinnerware, from the fine bone china, to the everyday dishes. I feel like I hit the jackpot when Lenox reached out to me a few months ago and asked me if I wanted to style a table for them using their beautiful dinnerware. Uummmm, pinch me please! YESSSSS! I had been eying the Contempo Luxe Dinnerware for awhile so I chose that pattern, along with a few other items to create this gorgeous table!
