On the first floor of our apartment building are two amazing design shops. One happens to feature the best in colorful modern decor accessories. My favorite collection in the store is by designer Nicole Porter. I absolutely adore the modern lines and bright colors! Reminds me of my younger days of mixing bold colors with my folders, pens, clothes and bedding. I was quite obsessed with pairing bright colors together for hair accessories, nail polish and never wearing anything drab. It’s a color palette after my own heart.
She started her business at home and it’s grown to a national level in just four years. I’m a big fan of women who shape and build their own businesses. So please check out her products and have fun building color set of tableware!
This is one of my favorites from her collection. I love that she’s paired a bright oversized peony graphic with a classic black & white pattern. She has several more available in different colors. I’d pair with a patterned tablecloth, bare wood table or hang on the wall as a beautiful piece of art.
I actually think most of my dish collection will end up being on display. I’m guilty to admit that some of my favorites are hidden away in kitchen cabinets. Figuring out how to display beautiful dishes all at once is tricky when you’re short on space. I do have a few favorites strategically placed in a gallery wall in our living room. My tea set is in a glass case. But, I keep finding great cups, saucers, cocktails plates, etc. and can’t find a nice home for the little guys. They do come in handy for styling and parties though :)

Don’t you get happy just looking at these? I believe her tableware is a fun way to spruce up the dinner table. I would love to use the chevron and peony dishes as a modern look for the holidays!
