My coveted Winterberry collection has increased this year, thanks to eBay. It’s difficult to find just two plates, or two service settings, but I started looking on eBay! I have now added:

All but one item was previously used, and in terrific condition. They won’t sit in the china cabinet either. I will be USING them during this Christmas season. I love making a presentation out of afternoon tea, or even morning tea. And now, with some of these new additions, I can use them for dinners and after-dinner drinks and desserts. Did I NEED them? No. Do they make me happy? Yes. Yes, they do. AND they were much cheaper on eBay than buying them directly from Pfaltzgraff or even Replacements, Ltd. I’m very thankful for the small sellers on eBay across the country. Every item came relatively quickly, were expertly packaged, and were exactly as described. Merry Christmas, to me!

All that being said, I grabbed one of my fluted mugs, a holiday napkin, and used the new small tray to carry the mug and a yummy cinnamon bun. I enjoyed Double Spice Chai from Stash Tea.

Let the cozy, holiday season begin!
