I bought this platter set for my mother as a Mother’s Day gift.  She had recently updated the furniture and decor on her front porch using a blue color pallet.  I thought these would be excellent decorative accents as my mother loves entertaining and serving up delicious snacks and appetizers.  She loved it and so did my sister who was convinced the platters were actually made of more expensive material not melamine.  She told me she will be ordering the platters as well!  I highly recommend these as a sturdy and durable decorative accents or to use for summer entertaining.  I thought they looked so nice that I’m going to be buying a pair myself!
