Creative Ways to Display Dishes

I'm in love with the idea of displaying and storing dishes outside of closed cabinets! Instead of hiding your pretty dishes, stack them neatly on shelves or in a bookcase. Not only will it add interest to the decor of your kitchen, it's a convenient way to easily access what you need.

Metal storage shelves make for a great pantry and the metal storage bins a perfect drawers!


I love the chalk board in this kitchen!




I'm in love with this teal vintage dish rack!

    I've always loved exposed dishes, especially white on a white backdrop, so clean looking.

    Yes I am very intrigued with the open shelving idea too! I also love the teal vintage dish rack...I saw one in a local antique mall...one of those "should have bought" items in my mind! Take care, Caorline

    Love the white dishes for displaying openly. My fav is the aqua cabinet with the GROCERY sign above. Love the locker cubbies inside...gorgeous!!

    i am with you , it is a great look.
    although , i don't think i could personally maintain a neat and organized life.
    messy open shelves would look stinky !
