I am joining Tablescaper for her blogaversary – one year of blogging. Congratulations! She has chosen the theme of where we keep all of our dishes and tablescaping props. This was a lot of fun for me and made me clean it up a bit.
One of the selling points of the townhouse I bought was the walk-in closet off the room I use as a den/tv room. I had shelves put in and then bought shelf dividers at Bed, Bath and Beyond.
The closet has been “spiffed” up just a tad! And I am not showing you the floor or the chair I removed for the”shoot”. Perhaps another time…..
And then there is the bottom of the Welsh cupboard.
And then the new cabinet in the kitchen hall.
Oh, look!!! I see an empty space!!!! That won’t be there for long…..
Of course, my kitchen cabinets are full, too. Don’t forget to visit the other participants and see their storage solutions.

Boy, you have a lot of beautiful things! I love the way you have used your spaces and shelving to display everything. I got some great storage ideas from this post-thank you Carol!
Best wishes,
Natasha.
Your walk-in closet must be a treasure to you. Great way to use that space. Thanks for bringing us inside.
LOVE (and covet!) that walk-in-closet! The organization really speaks to me -- lovely! I really enjoyed seeing your storage solutions!
You are so organized. Love your dishes! Thanks for showing us....Christine
I like your new cabinet & that walk-in storage spot is TDF!! I see some very pretty pieces in your collection. I'm jealous!
Its so fun to see how others store their dishes/pretties! You have a lovely spot with the walk-in closet and such wonderful pieces to store there! I see you are "branching out" though and are using other areas as well...funny how that happens! Its true, The Tablescaper got us cleaning our closets!

I just love your walk in closet. Easy access and bright to where you can locate everything with a glance. What a great feature!
I think a dish closet is the best thing to have. Mine isn't as large as yours (drool) but I have managed to put a lot in there!! This has been fun!
Alma didn't get me to clean my closets! LOL. After a 4 day weekend with 4 little ones, I didn't have the energy!
Anyway, you are way too neat! But you have another house, so it is only half of your stash!!
Gosh I would like to be lucky enough to have a walk-in closet for my dishes and serving pieces.
Yours looks so organized and pretty too.

Loved seeing all of your pretty dishes and where you put them. You've got a lot of storage! Everything looks so good!
Be a sweetie,
Shelia ;)
What lovely things you have and great storage too!
What a great closet and lovely things to store in it!!
Hi Carol:
Nothing like having storage spaces! I keep thinking I'm going to repurpose the pantry into a place for my dishes. The foodstuff could go into the cupboards. Handsome would never be able to find anything then! lol
Have a great week.

Thanks so much for joining the party! It's so much fun to see where we stash it all.
I must say, yours looks quite organized! And there's definately some room for growth. It's amazing how this stuff multiplies, isn't it!
Can't wait to see more of the tablescapes you come up with from all of your beautiful stuff. I saw some great yellow glass in there!

Wow, a walk-in pantry. I'm as green as grass with envy. I've got stacks of dishes in every cupboard in my house. But I love them.

Wow, Carol, what a delight it must be to have this kind of organziation/storage in your home!
What a nice spot to keep everything together, plus it's easy to see.
Hi Carol,
Very impressive! I must confess now that I really want to see what's on the floor. (kidding!). You have so many lovely things, and you're obviously a skilled organizer.
I wasn't brave (or energetic) enough to get my dish storage areas ready for inspection, but I'm certainly glad you participated in The Tablescaper's fun event. I'll have to pop over and wish her a happy blogaversary.
Warmest regards,
Bill
Carol-You have great storage! I didn't show my floor either! I am in love with that tureen--it looks as if it belongs to a set---I'm straining my eyes :)
Hi Carol!
Very nicely organized dish collections! How handy to have the walk in closet!! Everything looks so pretty!
I need to do this! You have done such a great job. I've got to get myself organized.

Carol, that closet is wonderful! I saw some dishes I wanted to take out to look at up close. It all looks so neat and organized. laurie
I think it's such fun to see the secrets of how people store things! And your cabinets, etc are so tidy!
Hi Carol
You have some lovely stuff there!! I think I have said before that we have very little storage in our bungalow and I am a more practical ( or boring) person, I wouldn't buy items unless I knew I would have them in regular use for everyday BUT I love to see everyone else's, which is the great thing about Blogland!!
Nearly Maine day, I hope your hip operation goes well and what a great place to sit, relax and recuperate.
Have a wonderful birthday on June 26th, very best wishes, Jackie in Surrey, UK.
Carol, I'm sorry I do not have a source for the flower arranger I used in today's blog post. It is at least 10 years old, if not more. I will google the subject & try to find some online for you.
Carol, I thank you for that info on Ina's recipe for "coeur a la creme". I will google that also!
Thanks for visiting the Gazebo House & for your sweet comments.
fondly,
Rett
After looking at your photos, I now have storage envy!
What a delight it must be to have a space like this in your home. You've done a wonderful job with the design of the closet. I hope you are having a great day. Blessings...Mary
This is amazing. Love all your dishes and storage. Got some good tips and suggestions from your post. Thanks!!
I'm enjoying seeing all the nice organization of a favorite hobby!
