Like most of you, probably, I've been coveting gold flatware since West Elm made the Cambridge Silversmith's set famous. A couple weeks ago I finally pulled the trigger during a sale that was too good to miss saving myself a good sixty dollars on place settings for eight. Now, don't laugh, but I haven't used it yet! I'm too afraid to mess it up which is silly because the idea was to use as my daily utensils. Replacing the 30+ year old stainless steal set I think came off my dad's old boat. My parents are staying with me this week for the holiday so I know my mother will open all of it for me, forcing me to use it. She's good like that. My next dilemma is how to store it? It's so beautiful that I'm hesitant to shove it in a drawer only to be seen when used. I love these images with the flatware displayed/stored in mason jars and glasses. I could go for that...
