Q.

A.

If your living room doesn’t have room for a china cabinet, you have two good options: Store it in a closet or in your kitchen cabinets. To protect these pieces in a closet, use padded zipper pouches designed to secure all edges and sides. If you keep your china in your kitchen cabinets, place these foam sheets in between your plates and bowls so they don’t clank against each other and chip. Feeling creative? Remember that you don't have to tuck everything away. Hang a few of your fave plates on your wall for a cozy-chic touch.
