Baby-proofing is hard! We've slowly tried to move some things with our nephews and my BFF's baby having gotten into things and broken things. At least slipcovers are washable! :)</p> <p>Also, I realized you must not have earthquakes where you live! I'd be scared of standing the plates up. One little earthquake and they'd all be broken?!?! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-displayuse-your-china-cabinet#post-464341 Mon, 24 Dec 2012 16:18:23 +0000 shopaholic 464341@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Some terrible reflections on the glass (still wrapping presents!) but here's our china cabinet. I'm wondering if most people just stack dishes and plates inside or what? I have one plate on a stand and some bowls stacked b/c my ILs threw away the boxes while they were stored at their house. </p> [attach=2730/12/mfk0io.600x446.CHINACAB.jpg] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-displayuse-your-china-cabinet#post-464338 Mon, 24 Dec 2012 16:13:49 +0000 Mrs. Pickle 464338@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@shopaholic: there is no door. It's antique and it didn't come with one. There are hinges, so once upon a time it had a door. I don't know what we'll do to baby proof. My dining room is not kid friendly at all! My chairs have white slip covers! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-displayuse-your-china-cabinet#post-464329 Mon, 24 Dec 2012 16:02:22 +0000 shopaholic 464329@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Leialou: Ooh! Nice display! Is there a door on it, or will you have to move it once you have a LO running around? (I'm in the mindset of baby-proofing too). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-displayuse-your-china-cabinet#post-464320 Mon, 24 Dec 2012 15:47:32 +0000 Mrs. Pickle 464320@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have a china cabinet. It's nice to grab my china off the shelf instead of unpacking it from a box when I want to use it. </p> [attach=1198/12/mfjz6r.448x600.image.jpg] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-displayuse-your-china-cabinet#post-464318 Mon, 24 Dec 2012 15:42:03 +0000 fairefaire 464318@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We don't have formal china, but we do have a china cabinet :) I use it to store/display our glassware, pretty serving pieces, etc. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-displayuse-your-china-cabinet#post-464316 Mon, 24 Dec 2012 15:41:02 +0000 shopaholic 464316@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Do you display your china in your china cabinet/hutch? I still haven't busted out our china (married 4+ years) and wanted to use it this past week, but realized I'd have to unpack each set from each box. I do have one plate that is on display on a rack inside the cabinet (it was signed). The rest of our china cabinet houses fancy stemware, barware, alcohol, and small souvenirs from our travels, etc.<br /> My SIL has all her china stacked in her china cabinet, but I don't necessarily think that looks that nice.<br /> If you do display your china, how did you do it?<br /> What do you keep in your china cabinet?<br /> Pics please if you care to share! :D I'll come back and post mine. </p>
