Dishes "even in the soup"

They have already predicted it in the January issue of AD; the dishes are not only good for eating and will give the artistic touch to our homes in 2013. After several seasons in which we have revitalized its use to decorate the walls Taking out the ceramics that we had stored, the time has come to look for new forms of presentation or to innovate with the materials. These three painted in pastel colors with gold-plated details mix two of the most outstanding trends for the home: Dishes and fish, which will also be a recurring motif throughout the year.

One of the proposals to take into account is to maintain the dishes on the table in a "perennial" way for decorative purposes, mixing different tableware, mounting one of the small ones on top of two of the large ones, stacking them by color or arranging several of the same tone to create geometric shapes as used to be done on the walls.

Individual pieces of the same crockery can also be placed in position vertical and forming circles concentric, on the sideboard, the entrance console or the mantelpiece, as we see these plates with a romantic air belonging to the Les Reves Byzaqntins collection that Versace has designed for Rosenthal. They will serve us by way of pin trays, candy boxes, jewelers, soap dishes ... like the small ceramic plates designed and hand painted by Cynthia Vardhan.

The plates will continue to hang on the wall, but we will move from traditional materials such as earthenware and glass to others of New Generation such as melamine, polypropylene or cork, much lighter, with a matte finish and with more modern motifs. It is even possible to adapt them to children's decoration, such as this fantastic idea that they present in Home Crafts: With plastic plates in the shape of a fish (again) from which a triangle that serves as a glue, some stickers and a simple permanent marker. Great!
