With crockery, cutlery in it, where do you keep it?

Sorry having a tidy up and I'm sure things aren't in the best places...

In the cupboard under the stairs although I may soon be moving it to the garage to make way for my homemade alcohol that needs a dark place.

Garage.

Karbea · 16/11/2013 10:03

Doesn't it get dirty in there?

I can't move it the just yet (see other post!).

Mine is under the stairs but I have to move it and the other boxes full of rubbish if I want to get anything useful out.

Garage. Never use it!

HappyHippyChick · 16/11/2013 10:07

I never use mine either, but it's on a shelf so doesn't really get dirty.

wonkylegs · 16/11/2013 10:08

It'll go on a shelf on the wall in the garage, so don't see why it'll get any dirtier up there than in the understairs cupboard. The main difference is that it's colder in the garage but I'm guessing the crockery won't mind.

Does anyone ever use it? My parents have a beautiful one that belonged to gps (under spare bed) but i can't see anyone ever using it Sad

Philoslothy · 16/11/2013 11:23

We have two , both kept in the larder

Philoslothy · 16/11/2013 11:24

We use ours all the time.

wonkylegs · 16/11/2013 11:45

Ours was extremely useful when we moved house and I couldn't find the plates. It hasn't had much use but now we have a garden I think we'll use it for 'picnic' lunches.

I keep our baskets and suitcases in a basement store room. I love our basement!

Yankeecandlequeen · 16/11/2013 20:33

I keep mine on top of the wardrobe. Contains DS's Xmas gifts at the moment!

Letticetheslug · 16/11/2013 20:35

In conservatory - aka glory hole

AnnoyingOrange · 16/11/2013 20:40

Ours lives in a cupboard in the utility room

stargirl1701 · 16/11/2013 20:41

Garage in the winter. In the summer it's usually in the kitchen as we use it quite frequently.

Beehatch · 16/11/2013 20:43

I gave ours to the charity shop, after 10 years living in the cupboard under the stairs and being used maybe twice!

IF you are worried about it getting dirty in the garage could you put it in a
bin bag . (with a sticker on it saying "not rubbish - do not throw away.
