[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Where are all these antique stores with “gobs” of china? I’m in MoCo but willing to drive 90 mins in any direction.

Unfortunately I’m only interested in adding to my collection with a certain pattern, so online searching is far more convenient. [/quote]

The antiques stores in Kensington have some.  But it’s such a needle in haystack finding your pattern.  My mom has Blue Danube and they had a bunch of that last time I was there.  
I think people are just too precious about it all.  Just use it.  Put it in dishwasher.  If it breaks, so what.  Still better than trashing it all and buying new stuff from care and barrel.
I seriously don’t get why younger generations claim to care about the environment but are unwilling to reuse/rehab antique stuff and would rather just get everything new from wayfair or ikea.  Do they think that stuff has no environmental impact?  Same with antique furniture.

Crap on Martha Stewart all you want but her asthetix was in many ways very green as she encouraged people to repurpose old stuff and showed how you could make it look great instead of just tossing everything in landfill.  [/quote]
