Salad bowl and 2 tossers.

Opinions are divided.

I didn't want matching. So chose contrasting but complementary. In my view.

Your thoughts?

A bit clashy for me but will probably look better when there is salad in the bowl.

HerRoyalNotness · 17/08/2019 04:02

I’d go for wooden tossers myself. The short ‘hand’ style ones

Mileysmiley · 17/08/2019 04:14

That is horrible OP

Sorry but that combination is too busy. Rather than plastic I'd go for wood.

Love the bowl! I like also the salad servers but I'd prefer them with a plainer bowl, say red or yellow based. Wooden ones are quite heavy. With that bowl I'd have gone for transparent acrylic in a contrasting colour. But you've got to be happy and if you love them that's all that matters. Often avant Garde people are misunderstood, then the next year everyone buys mismatching salad bowls and servers. 😀

I like the bowl but not a big fan of the tossers. I agree with others who have said get wooden tossers instead.

Redshoesandtheblues · 17/08/2019 04:52

I nearly chose the short wooden tossers but decided against it. But option still open!

Avante Garde!! I'll use that whenever someone looks askance at my mis match!!
Just trying to be a bit more ' out there', darling.

(Puerile night-time giggle at 'wooden tossers'. That's going to be my to-go insult from now on). Smile

All my plates are pastel shades. So I wanted something bit different for salad bowl and tossers.
Just to liven things up.

Love the bowl. Love the tossers.

But not together. Just wrong.

Redshoesandtheblues · 17/08/2019 05:12

Shit. You should see the chair ive ordered in my 'avante garde' period. Grin

The bowl is great. The tossers make my eyes hurt. Toss 'em! donate to charity shop

Myfoolishboatisleaning · 17/08/2019 05:38

The bowl is lovely. Those tossers are right shite. Like many tossers. Go for wood.

Redshoesandtheblues · 17/08/2019 05:44

foolishboat, don't hold back, will you? 🤣

HobbyIsCodeForDogging · 17/08/2019 05:46

I like it OP. Let the tossers stay.

growlingbear · 17/08/2019 05:46

Well I love them together. They look like you've been travelling - Spanish?Moorish influence bowl and Japanese servers.

Myfoolishboatisleaning · 17/08/2019 05:47

I tried. But if we are discussing tossers, it is only right that we describe those shite tossers in a realistic way. I would not want people to think that these tossers were acceptable in any way.

Pipsqueak11 · 17/08/2019 06:00

I like the tossers a lot

IWouldLikeToKnow · 17/08/2019 06:03

I think it's ok. In fact, I don't think wooden tossers would work with that bowl

Redshoesandtheblues · 17/08/2019 06:13

Imagine huge salad in bowl?

OP posts:
Redshoesandtheblues · 17/08/2019 06:15

I liked bowl but not the natching tossers. I have my reasons!

OP posts:
Redshoesandtheblues · 17/08/2019 06:16

Matching , even. 🙄

I like the combo. I think more things will be patterned and not matching in the near future.
