Love it . . . Keep it: Cake Plates

I have a major obsession with cake plates. I get it from my mom. I currently have about 9 in my collection but feel the need to add more.
This one was a wedding gift from an old friend and is one of my favorites. I love the simple red detail. It’s from Crate and Barrel. 
I’m currently lusting over these from Elizabeth’s Embellishments. So adorable stacked together. 
And I really want one of these from Martha Stewart for Macy’s. Might have to squeeze a shopping trip into my weekend. I just love the square shape.
And I’ve been wanting this one from Crate and Barrel for forever. So simple and classic.
What are you loving and keeping this week?

    If I had more room I'd have 20 cake plates! So many cute ones out there. I love your red and white one. I use my cake plates for lots of things. They're great for adding height to a buffet at a party. I also use them to serve appetizers.
