Holiday

[Susan Louise]

While browsing the PI site by way of an email I got today, I happened to notice several more Christmas/holiday decor added and a new poinsettia dinnerware set. I am SOOO grateful I am not interested in it...quite relieved in fact.

I am starting this thread for 2 reasons...to give folks a HU who may like the new set and additions to another set from last year, and to show, what I consider a copy-cat type of design which reminds me totally of the Better Homes and Gardens Heritage Christmas dinnerware I have collected for 3-4 years now...which I think I have most of the pieces....especially all the salad plates.

Below are a couple of pics...the 1st one is of one of the new additions to the P1 Winter's Wonder holly & tree set...

And here is the BH&G salad plate that came out a few years ago...

I love it & wish I had room for another dinnerware set because I would buy it!!!!

Those look just like the ones I got at Walmart 2 years ago! They had them last year too with also an owl, and other things and a pretty 3 piece tray. I love them. I use them all year long because Christmas should be every day!

@on the bay  Yes, I think you may need to re-read my original post

I stated that the 2nd pic is from the the BH&G (Better Homes & Gardens)...although I didn't mention 'Walmart'. I have most of that set...collected lots of pieces from I think started in 2008 or 2009-2015

@on the bay  I bought quite a few last year at Walmart.  I missed them when they were first released.  Ebay was selling the salad plates four for $50, glad I held off because then they returned to walmart for $2.00+ per plate.

I have to stop checking in here. You guys are killing my credit card...LOL  I am so getting those dishes at P1.

@mousiegirl and  @on the bay  I found an old thread I started back in 2014 about the BH&G collection:

I have a very hard time saying no to anything reindeer or snowmen though I have downsized a lot

@mousiegirl  and @on the bay  I just checked EBay for giggles to see what some of the collection is selling for now...

Saw this listing titled:  "5pc Better Homes & Gardens Heritage Collection WINTER FOREST 8.75" Salad Plates" ...selling for $99!!!

I will say though...that salad plate with the Chickadee & Cardinal is RARE. It was only distributed in a small regional area of Walmart stores mainly in the southeast. I was lucky to get a pair of them on EBay back in 2014 and thankfully for not nearly as much as the going rate is for them now

Maybe they'll have them again this year. They had them last year
