When MacKenzie-Childs announced they will be coming out with the SweetBriar Collection in 2018, as soon as I saw it, it reminded me of my Vietri Collection. Joe is referred to as the "Vietri Man" at the local gift shop where he buys gifts.
These photos of our Vietri Italian dinnerware are from Valentine's Day a few years ago. The dinnerware is called "Incanto", and we have five different patterns that we mix and match, and like the casual yet elegant look.
This pattern is called "Lace". The footed bowls are called "Stripe".
This pattern is called "Emblem".
This pattern is called "Flower".
I'll have to see if the MacKenzie-Childs SweetBriar collection matches the Vietri. I may add a few pieces if that's the case.


Over the weekend I posted about our trip to NYC with the Traveling Totes to NYC. Seven bloggers and five hubbies. Two bloggers in our group couldn't make it this time. Since our common interest is MacKenzie-Childs, I couldn't resist taking pictures at the NYC store and drooled over their seasonal displays.
xo, Debbie









The dishes are very pretty Debbie! Looks like you're all having fun "toting" around-enjoy:@)
ReplyDeleteHi Lynn, if those totes could talk! LOL
DeleteGreat pics of the MC store. Love your Vietri china. Enjoy your week.
ReplyDeleteThe emblem:) Fossils..so pretty! So much fun for your group w/ the same passion!!How cute that Joes is so thoughtful he is known as The Vitri man:)
ReplyDeleteLike with your painting, so much more fun to share with others that have the same passion. I chuckled when he told me they call him the Vietri Man :-)
DeleteOOPS VIETRI
ReplyDeletePretty dishes - I think the Sweet Briar will coordinate well with them! Cute pic of the 3 of us at the end of post!! So glad we had a great photographer with us!!
ReplyDeleteThe photographer did good! I hope I can share his video on my blog.
DeleteOh, wow, Debbie, just gorgeous! First, your own Vietri collection and table settings, and secondly, all the eye candy of MacKenzie-Childs displays. What a calming respite the whites of the SweetBriar collection are to the kaleidoscope of color typically MKC. I love it all, thanks for sharing. I didn't know they made their flatware in gold either. {sigh}
ReplyDeleteHi Deb, as you know I am a huge fan of Vietri and especially the beautiful table you set for this Valentine table setting. Love the pretty placemats. I'm anxious to see the new MacKC pattern and see if it works with the white Anthro set I have. I made a lot of pics of the shop too and will be sharing soon. Happy November........
ReplyDeleteBeautiful dishes, Debbie! I love that Joe is called the Vietri Man ;) What a fun time and group of ladies!
ReplyDeleteI can just FEEL you gushing!!! It looks like you guys had the time of your lives in New York!
ReplyDeleteDebbie, I thought the same when I first saw the new MacKenzie-Childs SweetBriar collection. It reminds me of the Vietri and also Juliska white dinnerware. I suspect it will be easy to mix them together. I'm still savoring the memories of our time in NYC. So happy Joe got some good photos. Please thank him once again.
ReplyDeleteHow cute he is known as the Vietri man.
I love your Vietri collection of dishes, and how Joe gifts them to you, Debbie. The Sweet Briar collection will probably fit in beautifully with your pieces. I know you girls and guys had a blast in NYC!
ReplyDeleteI love Vietri and your pieces are swoonworthy! You are so lucky to have such a smart husband who appreciates the finest like Vietri and MKC!! Can't wait to see the Sweetbriar collection!

What a terrific time you all had in NYC. I would think the new collection would be fun to mix with what you have...it will be interesting to see what happens. :)
ReplyDeleteThese are gorgeous Debbie. How sweet to have the different patterns and mix them up. Love that Joe is called the "Vietri Man". Your table is gorgeous! The Sweet Briar dishes should fit in nicely. It was so much fun meeting all of the group's members except for the missing two. I am sure in the future, they shall be able to make it. I need to grab the video, now that I am finally caught up. Happy Sunday.
ReplyDeleteDebbie, both collections look great. My wife and I were curious if you ever did end up buying the Sweetbriar collection and mixing it in with your Vietri dishes? If you did, do you have any pictures to share? How did you feel about the overall look?
