Stunning: Birdy melamine plates
July 4, 2011
The sun has got his hat on, hip-hip-hip-hooray… as the song goes. It’s true, the sun has finally decided to grace our shores. And that can only mean lots of barbecues, picnics and al-fresco eating galore. So, I’ve been on the hunt for some melamine plates. My search ended when I found these Birds of Feather plates. How wonderful are they? They’re almost too good to eat from… almost! The rich colours and the beautiful images inspired by the outdoors combine to create true stunners. These Birds of Feather melamine plates are by Pocketo and cost $40 for a set of 4 and they offer worldwide shipping. Pocketo is a hot US based design shop with the philosophy ‘art for your everyday’, and I for one subscribe whole heartedly to this philosophy.
Pocketo first discovered through Covet Garden

Smiley, happy plates for the kiddies
December 21, 2010
Lovely, happy, plates from Smiling Planet. Their mission: to make you smile and I’m definitely smiling wide. On offer are kiddy plates and bowls with whimsical drawings that are oh so light-hearted and fun. And they’re all earth-friendly too, made with recycled and recyclable plastic, free of all nasties like BPA, Lead, Phthalates and toxic inks. There’s many to choose from including a Ballerina Mouse plate and a Blue Whale plate, both of which are just fab. In the bowls section, I’m wantingly eyeing the music Lion one which immediately brought on a big smile. The Smiling Planet plastic kids plates cost £12.95 while the bolws cost £7.95 and delivery is £3.95. So, so tempting!
My mustachioed viking
September 23, 2010
Vikings. Not something I think about but today I’m going a bit viking ga-ga. I’ve spotted these stylish melamine dinner plates that are the creation of Sandra Monat, a German lady big on contemporary style with a historical twist. I’m loving the illustrations of the vikings, they’re so cool, so contemporary, so cheerful. I’m especially keen on the black mustachioed one sheltering himself from the rain… how amazing is he?
The square plate is smaller costing £11.50 while the larger round ones (including my mustachioed friend!) cost £13.50 with delivery from £3.50. Will a dash of viking adventure mean more greens are chomped? No but I’m still vanting!
