I can still remember picking out our first set of dinnerware. I fell in love with the blue and white design and later ended up designing our entire kitchen off of the color scheme. But alas it has not withstood the test of time or three children. The original 8 mugs have dwindled down to 2 and all of the remaining plates are either chipped or scratched. While my husband and I discussed purchasing a new set, we couldn’t decide what to get and just couldn’t agree on a pattern.
That’s when I received an invite to a Corelle event in Miami. Although my kitchen is stocked with all of their other products including tons of Pyrex and CorningWare (I could probably be a spokesperson), I had never heard of Corelle or all of its great features including:
- virtually break and chip resistant (never say never especially around a toddler!)
- scratch and stain resistant
- dishwasher, microwave and oven safe (up to 350 degrees)
- lightweight and space saving
- made in the U.S.
As you can imagine, I was impressed. Everything that I couldn’t stand about my set of dinnerware was solved. I could let the toddler help me unload the dishwasher and not worry about the tweens breaking a plate when they set the table. When I came home and started boasting about it to all of my mom amigas, they started confessing about how they either have Corelle or have heard of it and want to make the switch. I’m not going to lie, I was starting to feel slightly betrayed that no one bothered to share this information with me! And so, I am sharing it with you! Not only am I sharing the information, I’m also giving a set of Corelle dinnerware away! (See the information below.)
Look at the space saving difference! (Corelle on the left, old dinnerware on the right)
There is also one person that I am definitely sharing the information about Corelle with and that is my newly engaged sister. Instead of making the mistake I made, she can start off with Corelle and not have a set of dinged up plates ten years from now. In fact, Corelle has launched a new Boutique Collection perfect for a wedding registry. With two designs: Cherish, the rounded squares, and Swept, the rounds, the Boutique Collection is simple and gorgeous. AND for my sister and all brides-to-be, Corelle is running a Facebook Sweepstakes where they will purchase your entire wedding registry! Umm, where was this when I was getting married – perhaps its time to renew my vows? Check out the sweepstakes HERE.
The rounded squares are called Cherish from Corelle’s new Boutique line. Gorgeous!
Thanks to the amazing people at Corelle (truly they were super sweet), we are giving away a 4 pc. set of Corelle dinnerware (4 dinner plates, 4 bowls, 4 dessert plates and 4 mugs)
