Whipped topping and berries accompaniment for dessert.
Aren't these charming. A little jam and syrup for a pancake or french toast breakfast! Um hum, like it!
I would use it while having coffee with my friends as we browse through our Willow House catalogs.
Absolutely lovely! I can see some breadsticks and some bruschetta or caponata out for appetizers with a glass of wine.
Use as a little vase for flowers or to hold toppings for chili/tacos/ice cream bar!
Oh, I love the Belle Meade Collection...this is such a lovely set...love the shape,the color and the design! Suzanne
I'd have a set of these by my tub with my sea-salt scrub and bath oil in them! They are SO pretty.
Beautiful with flowers in both pieces on your table or windowsill. Great holder for cinnamon sticks for tea or both would be ideal for veggie sticks on the table to munch on for a healthy snack!
I'd use it for toppings on a sundae bar! hot fudge, or sprinkles would be so fun!
I love this little set, so classic. If I don't win it, I really need to order it. I have bible study every Thursday at my home. I always have the coffee ready, but my cream & sugar are sad in their orginial containers. I gave away my other ones to a new minster setting up house a while back & haven't replaced them yet.
Caramel sauce and crumbled cookies or wafers to top ice cream! michelebrigante@hotmail.com
You could use the sugar in the bathroom to hold q-tips or cotton balls, and the pitcher for a small nosegay of flowers. Don't you love the word "nosegay"? It's so fun!
I love it! I would also use it for vases since it matches my every day dishes. It would be really perfect for a bridal shower or outdoor spring party!
Adorable! Hot fudge and sprinkles would be my choice but only after we've used it for cheese sauce and sour cream for our dinner of baked potatoes and whatever.
This is the only missing piece to my Belle Meade collection! I would nestle it inside my french wire tiered stand along with my new k-cup collection.
I would love to use these when we have guests over for our cream and sugar! They would also serve as PRECIOUS flower vases on a bedside table!
I would use them for seeds and homemade dressing for salads.
what a PERFECT collection to expand into the creamer and sugar into. classic, timeless, and so versatile color wise. i would alternately use the creamer and sugar for warmed maple syrup and homemade jam for sunday breakfast. yummy.
Oh I love these.THere is so many things I could use these for. I have my friends over for coffee and tea and would love to use these for cream and sugar or I would put honey and cream in for our tea. I love the hot fudge and chopped nnuts idea also. Love These!!!
This was the item I got the most excited over in the new catalog! I have been saying that Willow House needs a sugar creamer set because I need one. :) I would use it for a sugar & creamer the most but I would also use it for a sundae bar. Hot fudge and brownie pieces would be yummy! I could also use it for salad dressing and croutons. So many uses that's why I LOVE Willow House you make me think outside box!
Adorable!!! I would have these on the table at all times ready to be filled with my Splenda & Fat-Free 1/2 and 1/2 :)
Oooh, I love it! I need a vessel for honey!
These would be too cute on the table with tiny flowers peering out as a centerpiece for tea. They would be cute sitting just about anywhere. I could also see them on the window sill.
This set is just OH so pretty! I would use the creamer piece as an alternative to a traditional gravy boat and the sugar piece could be a fun salt cellar!
Adorable
Toppings of any kind for ice cream, pancakes, hot cocoa, even hot cheese sauce for veggies!
I'd use them for homemade salad dressings at a ladies luncheon or baby shower.
How about bubble bath and bath salts by the side of your tub?
A small bouquet of fresh cut flowers in the creamer jar and a tea light in the sugar jar =0)
I think this would be great with gravy in the creamer and chow chow in the sugar dish for a good old South in your mouth meal!
I would use this charming set for Ice Cream Sundae's!! One would hold Chocolate Syrup and the other sprinkles!!
At the cocoa station, mini marshmallows and cinnamon sticks.
I dont have any pieces to this collection and would love to start here. I can see uses for this set in every room of my house. From its obvious use as a cream and sugar in the kitchen, it could also be used in my bathroom and my living room. Please pick me!!
I would use these 2 for breakfast with confectioner sugar in one and warm maple syrup in the the other for yummy french toast! I also love it to use at a chocolate fondue party or just as a special treat for someone you love! Put your warm chocolate syrup in the pitcher and valentines sprinkles in the other and serve fresh strawberries on the beautiful Covington serving tray!
I would use them as an accent to the Villa Stoneware Mugs and Tray that I would like to order. Although, they are not the identical match, they are definitely an eclectic choice to complete the set.
I like the maple syrup for french toast idea! YUM.
With Valentines day coming I would put a beautiful bouquet of mini red roses in the sugar container with the lid propped and a spoon sticking out and then put some candy hearts in the creamer and present it to a dear friend as a gift.
Great for coffee, but also for ice cream toppings, pancake/waffle toppings (think syrup and berries), mini vases, gravy and butter at the dinner table, honey and teabags, milk and granola at breakfast, cream or milk and sugar for fresh strawberries. I see this set either on the French Wire tier stand, of the Galveston or Napa trays :)
So many ideas, but I would use it for crushed candies (in the sugar) and carmel sauce (in the creamer) at a treat station. These could be added to hot chocolate, ice cream or cookies - YUM! Love these♥
They are so pretty - I would use them on my bthroom vanity - cotton balls in the sugar, eye pencils and mascara in the creamer!
I love coffee especially when it is in a pretty cup with pretty accessories. Sugar bowls and creamers are a weakness of mine because they can be such eye candy and these fit the bill totally!
I would use them just like in the picture - on a tray bringing my wife breakfast in bed!
Hot Fudge Sundae! Pecan or crushed Oreo toppings on the sugar side and hot fudge on the creamer side! YUM!
Love this clasic design. Not only would I use for cream and sugar to adorn a coffee service....but how sweet would it be to use it for syrup and your favorite jam when serving waffles or pancakes!
I would use this charming set as a pen/pencil, paper clip holder in the office section of my kitchen :)
How fabulou would these little lovlies be at your craft table? They would be wondrful holding your pens/pencils/ brushes or even embellishments. For that matter sitting at ones own desk they would add something. Holding pens and hiding paper clips woul work too. So many possibilities.
A beautiful gift for the Bride-To-Be! Add a pound of coffee or a Starbucks gift card and wrap them up in a beautiful basket!
I would use them for pasta night!! Punch up the parmesan cheese and salad dressing.
I have never had a nice creamer/sugar before and am always embarrassed when company comes over and I pull out the jug of milk from the fridge. This set would be such a delight to surprise my guest with
I would use it for hot chocolate and marshmallows in the winter and ice cream toppings in the summer!
Love it!!! The sugar bowl and spoon would be great for honey. Both would be awesome for Ice cream Sundae Night. I see sprinkles coming out of the sugar container and hot fudge or caramel pouring from the creamer! Would love to add this to my kitchen!
Perfect for Ice Cream Sundae night! I can see nuts or sprinkles in the sugar pot and hot fuge or caramel pouring from the creamer!
My husband keeps the big plastic bin out all day for the suger! This is exactly what I need so we don;t have anymore arguements over the sugar left out.
How about some 'pico de gallo' and spicy ranch dressing on your fav tex-mex?
For cream and sugar.
I am just in LOVE with the Cream and Sugar set. It can be used for so many things. Sugar caddy can be used for Sugar..duh, sprinkles, bacon bits, chives, craft projects and so on. The Creamer , I just LOVE for flowers, gravy, cream, how about for a birthday party, tie a ribbon on the handle and use for hot fudge toppings. They both look adorable under the tall glass dome on top of the new Villa Petite Pedestal!
You could use them as flower vases & put possibly put them on a cake plate.
I would put hot chocolate powder in one and warm milk in the other!
Use it for a ice cream social or just a fun bday party- put sprinkles or mini chips in the "sugar" and put hot fudge sauce or chocolate syrup in the "creamer and get your ice cream out and add the treats to your ice cream!
Hi I need a this to complete my coffee service at my office. It is beautiful.
These would look great sitting on my French Wire Tiered Stand ready for a Make Your Own Coffee experience. A little flavored cream, sugar, and crushed up chocolate chips and almonds in our Hyacinth Ramekins! Let's not forget the whipped cream!
Chopped cilantro in the sugar bowl and salsa in the creamer on taco night!
I'd use them to serve chopped candied walnuts and a raspberry vinaigrette to top off a apple cranberry chicken salad for a fun girls luncheon.
By far one of my favorite new pieces in the Spring catalog. I would use these at the breakfast table with our oatmeal. I see brown sugar in one and milk in the other.
I am planning a Tea Party for my little girls birthday party and will be decorating the main table with Willow House products and these would be great on each table for the Ladies.
I have a sugar bowl on my kitchen counter, but I use Splenda now too and would love something to keep that in for everyday use. Since I have the Villa dishes, this set is a great match.
i would use it as coffee table decor
I was thinking that although these match some other items in my kitchen, that I might use them in my master bathroom around the spa tub....filled with salts & scrubs.
I love this set. My 5th grader wants to get one to give to her teacher, who's out on lengthy health leave. Couple it with a pound of specialty coffee and a bottle of her fave creamer...something to brighten every morning while beating this awful thing she's fighting. :o)
hot caramel sauce and sprinkles :)
Sprinkles and hot chocolate syrup for ice cream!! Love this!!<3
I would use the creamer for my husband's famous Balsamic Vinaigrette and the sugar bowl for homemade croutons or pine nuts for a great salad to usher in spring!
This creamer and sugar is sooooo pretty! They will add charm and beauty where ever they go. I just want them!
Love these for my sundae bar to make it really special for my kids! Chocolate syrup and sprinkles!
My children make individual omelets on Sunday mornings. We have a tendency to use way too many eggs. The egg mixture for 1 omelet would go in the pitcher to eliminate wasting eggs. The lidded bowl would hold shredded cheese, as this is the only item that all 3 use in their omelets.
Set up our own Coffee Bar and use the "sugar bowl" for buttery caramel flavoring and the "creamer" for vanilla flavored syrup. Caramel Macchiato anyone? ... with a "wh" shaped caramel drizzle on top!
Pretty! I think I'd stick with the traditional use. :)
I would use these for Christmas morning breakfast when the family comes to visit.
Have a young daughter who loves "teas". Host a Valentine Tea Party with her little friends. Provide heart shaped sugar cookies for them to decorate and in the creamer put the frosting with a cute spreader and sugar sprinkles in the other. This will make them feel EXTRA special!!
How about in a guest bath with bath salts in the sugar dispenser and fresh flowers in the creamer.
I would put flowers in the creamer and homemade jam in the sugar bowl...then, I'd make breakfast for my sweetie!
I would love these to add to my kit since I don't yet own any Belle Meade pieces. But, of course I would also like them for my home. I would put sugar cubes (maybe brown) in the sugar and some skim milk in the creamer. Yum!
This is a beautiful set it's a bit tuscan rustic but yet has that touch of elegance too. Great addition to my Belle Meade canisters. Put powdered sugar and crushed fresh strawberries for fresh baked desserts. mmmmmmmm beautiful! a must have.
I would use it when I have my tea party! Moms and their little girls, come dressed in their Sunday best for some old fashion fun!
I would love to use these as an addition to pancakes. Fresh fruit in one and maple syrup in the other. Yum!
My kids would suggest the sugar be used for sprinkles and the creamer be filled with chocolate syrup. Pair up with cinnabar tidbits with home made vanilla ice cream. Yum!
These would look great on my kitchen table filled with cream and sugar for my morning coffee with breakfast! It would be complete next to my belle meade flatware caddy filled with fresh flowers!
These are so pretty! They would coordinate very well with my everyday dishes! I would probably use them all the time! If I don't win them I should definitely add them to my wish list!
I would love to use to hold cinnamon/sugar blend and syrup! We love using both for breakfast!
My wonderful daughter and son-in-law gave me a Keurig coffee maker for Christmas...I've taken one of my counters and turned it into a "coffee bar"! I took the top tier of the French Wired Tiered Stand, cut a circle out of napkin and placed it inside...wouldn't the Belle Meade Creamer and Sugar be the PERFECT addition to my coffee bar? It's my "Bright and Early Treat" just for me!!!
Love these! What a great way to make a girl's brunch extra special by having a pretty place for the cream and sugar!
Love this set, great for tea with my beautiful daughters who are learning how to have tea parties! :)
These would be perfect for pancake or waffle mornings. Syrup and jam.
Use it to hold hold fudge and nuts (or other ice cream toppings) for Sundae Night!
I would use it when having coffee and tea with my friends! They are amazing!
I would love to use the creamer for a homemade dressing to pour over a salad and use the sugar bowl for the lemon slices to squeeze fresh lemon juice onto the salad following the dressing!!
I would use it to dress up homemade sauces and dressings - how cute!! Thanks for the chance!
This is a darling set! I would probably just leave it on my buffet as part of the decor because it is such a cute set!!!
I would use the Belle Meade Creamer for pancake syrup for my waffles or hot fudge for a sundae. I would put jelly or jam in the sugar bowl and it would look perfect with my Villa Stoneware dishes :)
coffee with friends of course:)
I love this it's so adorable!! I just recently became a coffee drinker!! Well cream and sugar with a touch of coffee LOL so this would be perfect for me!! It's too cute!! Thank you for such a wonderful giveaway!!
I would use for cupcake decor, sprinkles and marshmallows.
It would live on my favorite Jamestown Tray and I'd use it EVERY morning, in preparing my sugar-free vanilla, non-fat latte. Yum-o!
I think this would be a PERFECT solution to my latest issue. I want something cute to serve my butter and honey in at room temperature. This would be a great way to do so.
I think this would be a PERFECT solution to my latest issue. I want something cute to serve my butter and honey in at room temperature. This would be a great way to do so.
This is so lovely. Delicious.
My kids would love to use this for pouring melted cheese and scooping salsa for nachos.
I would love to have this. I would give it to my mom for a present. noles0121@gmail.com
I would use this set on a quiet morning/evening when I need mommy time and a cup of tea with a good book..
Love these! I would use them all the time! Cream and sugar for coffee, jam and syrup for pancakes, dip and breadsticks, or I would put some pretty flowers or candies in them for a table centerpiece! Thank you!!!
I would probably use them for ice cream toppings or for syrup and fruit toppings for french toast!
Sign me up!!! I actually see myself using the pitcher as a colored pencil holder...
I'd like to use it for TEA! I love TEA and hot cocoa too...Sugar & whipped cream!!! How about bacon bits/cranberry/nut mix & salad dressing.
My mother in law just bought herself the Villa stoneware for Christmas & her birthday is coming up. I'm buying her the Villa mugs & this would make such a wonderful addition to her coffee mugs.
Oh, these would be perfect for syrup and jam! I just love these!
Just love the whole Belle Meade collection-now these just make it the cream of the crop!
I rescue the new shoots from my spider plants that my kitties try and eat. I would use the sugar and creamer on my window sill with the baby spider plant in water until it grew new roots and was ready to plant. They are too cute to just store in a cabinet!
simply divine, simple yet, beautiful....
We make French Toast alot at my house and I would use the Sugar Bowl for the powdered sugar and heat up the syrup and serve it in the creamer! Place the fresh fruit on the Villa Stoneware appatizer tray as well! Would make a beautiful breakfast table with the family!
Cream. Syrups tea man many things this could be helpful for
Fresh berries/fruit assortment on one and Nutella on the other to pour over freshly made crepes! My daughter's favorite. Yummy :-)
This is so beautiful! I love items like this that are simple but beautiful. These would be used as a center for my table when we aren't having coffee or tea in the morning because then it'd be used for cream and sugar.
Oh Please pick me!!!! Pretty please!!!! I just love these I think they are beautiful! I would use mine for my coffee and creamer. I"m should there is many ways to use it but that is how I would put mine to good use daily!!!
I would use it for their intended use of cream and sugar and it will be PERFECT for the spring tea table I am hosting!!! I <3 these!
These are great everyday but I would also use them for as vases with beautiful roses at a baby shower or bridal shower OR for eggnog and baileys during the holidays!
These are beautiful I can't wait to use them for a coffee bar with the Gramercy Beverage Server ... but I would also love to use them with chocolate syrup and sprinkles at an icecream bar!! They are so adoreable!
Gotta think outside the box for Spring/Summer uses. Imagine scooping powdered sugar (sugar) and dripping chocolate sauce (creamer) on those wonderful funnel cakes during the 4th of July! Or, drizzling BBQ sauce on your burger (creamer) and sprinkling a mix of chives, bacon bits, spices on your baked potato (sugar)! YUM!
I love this set, looks like something I could definitely use!
Perfect for berry compote and cream to put on pound cake.
Love these and for such an incredible price! Just sold a set today...
This set would match all the dishes that I have, so they would be very useful.
Milk and mini marshmellows for a hot chocolate station
I have no imagination so it's neat to read all the different ways others would put such a cute set to use.
This is such a beautiful tasteful addition to your table during any meal! The neutral color is perfect, yet very elegant! Love it! Want it!
Gravies, yogurt and nuts, or fav candies or mints.
I love the Belle Meade collection!
I have an almost 4yr daughter. The creamer would be perfect for the simple task of helping her pour milk in cereal. And the sugar would hold hot cocoa mix because thats something she also likes to do herself.
Love, love, love them!! I have the dishes that match and would love them to compliment the dishes!!!
With Valentine's Day approaching, these two would look perfect in the three- tiered French stand. One can be used for melted chocolate that can be drizzled over strawberries. The other can be used to hold cream for the strawberries to be dipped in. They would complete the look on the three tiered stand that would contain other Valentine-theme items (heart shaped cookies, lollipops, and other assorted red chocolates). This is my first time leaving a comment...crossing my fingers :)
I think cream (or half and half) and sugar (or Splenda) would be just perfect!
Each sugar and creamer will hold yellow daffodils from the market! Use at each placesetting with a name tag attached for a take-home gift. Let's see...how many sets do I need?! Happy spring!
One of my top favorite items from the new Spring 2011 Willow House catalog. I will use this set for chutneys, mustards and a variety of condiments in the lidded jar with the adorable spoon... perfect for any savory appt. bar and then sauces and syrups in the little "creamer". I need to win because I must have multiple sets!!!
Being that these are so cute, I want them on my table all year round and I've found a use for every season! In winter, they will hold coco powder and marshmellows, spring, bright flowers, summer, ice tea bags and lemons, fall..cinnamon sticks and coffee beans!!
Looove this set!!!! I'd use it for all of the obvious uses and during my daughter's cupcake parties...filled to the brim with sprinkles and frosting!
Red hots to be dipped out of the jar and heavy whipping cream that has been whipped just a smidgen and has a little sugar added. They are waiting to be placed in cups of steaming hot chocolate!
I would use it daily with coffee my husband makes for us. Mmmm!
Imagine pouring your favorite Raspberry sauce from the Belle Meade Creamer over a perfect New York Style Cheesecake, then spooning Dark Chocolate curls from the Belle Meade Sugar container. Two sets would double your cheesecake topping choices, perfect size!
I drink tea at least twice a day especially in the winter. I would use it for exactly what it is meant to be used for though I use Carnation milk, which needs a new container when it is opened.
Ladies, I think you have covered everything.. the ideas are awesome. All I can say, is this set would be a "go to" for almost every occasion. I really, really love this set.
This is such a great set. They are elegant looking.
OH MY GOSH! So cuteeeeeeeeee! I'd use them just as they are =) I also hear lady lingers calling or maybe those tall hazelnut wafflers... mmmm!! pick me pick me!
Chocolate sauce and sprinkles for ice cream sundaes! But I would also love to have my morning coffee with sugar and cream from this beautiful set!
CANDY Pieces....as in toppings for ice cream sundaes!! Any day is great for a sundae.......
Perfect addition to the new Keurig.
The Belle Meade sugar and creamer set is perfect for serving real Maple Syrup, you can heat it and pour it + some fresh blueberries in the sugar bowl to put out when serving the high protein cottage cheese pancakes.
They're so pretty,water would be good in them! You could put salad dressings,homemade preserves,the list is endless....
i would put these on my dining room buffet and use them for serving coffee and desserts.
I was use these just what they are intended for...
I would probably use it for pancake syrup,, or milk & sugar..:)
I would use them for flower vases, of course! :)
I would like to use the creamer as a little vase and the sugar to hold bath salts!
I would use this set at the bar by using a simple sugar syrup in the creamer for my cocktail of the day, with the sugar container used for the fruit used to accent the cocktail (cherries, limes, etc). This is a great set to be used in many ways at any table setting.
I would use them as a door prize for my open house next week!
I love the clean pristineness of this set. Makes me think of linen, pure and simple. I would love to have this! Pamie G. pgraham@gvtc.com
These are so beautiful! I love them and one way I would use this set would be in my guest bathroom. I would fill the creamer with flowers and the sugar with salt scrub for a nice treat for your hands.
Each time I look on the Willow House facebook, but I never see the winner listed. Can you point me in the correct place? Thanks much!
How can I get a catalog? For some reason I cannot view the Willow House website on my computer. Thanks.
I serve oatmeal a lot. I would use them for dried berries and cream. But of course, most often, I would use them for sugar and creamer for coffee with friends!
This set would be perfect for holding cotton balls and q-tips!
Love these two. The possibilities are endless.
These would be great for home made Salad Dressing and croutons or sunflower seeds to sprinkle on your salad.
I would use it for exactly what it is named for - sugar and creamer! It will compliment my Villa Stoneware mugs perfectly! Love this set!
The creamer is just the perfect size for gravy. So much easier to pour the gravy, instead of using a gravy boat & ladle! For those who prefer sour cream or butter on their potatoes, the sugar container is perfect too!
Like Erma Bombeck once said - use it or lose it! I use my china as everyday dishes and this is just what the 'doc' ordered...perfect for every possible use of yours and my imagination. A perfect match for my table...
I might use these adorable little pieces as a decoration. I would love to have such nice things in my house that I would be afaid to use them for fear of breaking them! I might go so far as to keep them in bubble wrap so that if they fell off my shelf they would not break into a million little pieces.
Would love these for my table...would go perfectly with my everyday china.
I would love to have a cup of coffee with my beloved friend. She would be so impressed to have cream and sugar with this set.
I am a big salad eater and I think this combo would be just excellent to pour on dressing over crisp lettuce and sprinkle a spooonful of bacon bits to top off my taste buds!
