"It's always nice to reunite with ornaments that are family heirlooms - but if you don't have any passed-down pieces, then you might end up shopping for new ornaments this holiday season. However, you don't necessarily have to buy a new set to add new magic to a holiday tree; instead, consider your kitchen first. One content creator found a stunning way to repurpose vintage china plates into gorgeous tree adornments."
"Luckily, all you need are a few tools to create ornaments from your existing saucers and plates. This set of plate hangers comes in a variety of sizes, so that you can incorporate each into your collection. And after Christmas, you can use the included wall hooks to hang the plates. Simply slide a piece of ribbon underneath the hanger and tie it into a bow to complete the look!"
"And if you don't have any plates yet, hit your local thrift or antique store to grab a couple for just a few dollars. Or, check out this set of six tea cups and saucers from Wayfair, which comes in a gorgeous cream-and-blue floral motif that feels antique. It's no surprise that people were praising Mims' plate-dotted tree. "Love this idea and I have so many antique little plates ... going to incorporate it on my tree this year!!" one person commented on the post."
Repurposing mismatched vintage china plates and saucers into Christmas tree ornaments creates a timeless, elegant aesthetic. Plate hangers in multiple sizes secure plates, and ribbon tied into a bow becomes the hanging loop. After the holidays, included wall hooks allow plates to be displayed on walls. Thrift stores and antique shops offer inexpensive plates, and new sets of tea cups and saucers can achieve a similar antique look. Stringing tea cups complements the plate-adorned tree. The style aligns with the grandmillennial trend and has prompted positive reactions from viewers and decorators.
