Re: POLL: Do you use your fine china/crystal/silver

In 1 1/2 years of marriage, I've used it once. I set the table beautifully on our 1-yr anniversary, and we ate take out off of it. lol.

Honestly, right now our home isn't big enough to host a big event dinner...so I can see us using it more then. But I do have it on display in a china cabinet in the kitchen so at least it's seen!

Not yet! We don't have a china closet in our house yet, so considering my fine china was my grandma's, it is still at my mom's all packaged up! Once we have a dining room set & have holidays, it will be used

Re: POLL: Do you use your fine china/crystal/silver

No to the China..I don't even have it all.

No to the flatware, don't have all of that either and people who gave it to us picked the wrong pattern.

Yes to the crystal..we use our wines alll the time..

...that's because we are a pair of drunks!

I use it for when I have company/dinner parties/special occasions and holidays. We have it, why not use it.

I don't have any... I wasn't allowed to register for any since I'm getting my grandmothers... which i'll probably never use since I don't like it.

Re: POLL: Do you use your fine china/crystal/silver

We used the crystal on NYE. I figured what am I saving it for!
I used all my China and crystal when I made Mother's Day this year for both sides. I LOVE my stuff and wish I had more opportunities to justify pulling it down from the cabinet above my fridge.
Unfortunately my china was discontinued so now DH and I are just trying to get more pieces. I am kicking myself for only registering for 12 settings! Even Mother's Day was 18 people so I had to use some of my everyday stuff.
My "everyday" barware is actyally crystal as well so that stuff is nicer but my plates are pretty ordinary. Oh well!

No, only because we're still in an apartment and have nowhere to put it, so it's being stored at FIL's house. But I totally love my china and visit with it often.

We do use our good wine glasses on the regular.



Same here, but it's at my parent's house.

We did on our anniversary. I think once we move out of our apartment we will use it more because we could entertain and have holidays at our house.

It's shameful that we haven't. I want to unpack a couple of place settings to use for special occasions -- even if it's just DH & I.
