dinnerware and drinkware: should I get sets of 8 or 12?

dinnerware sets for 8 image

I am soon buying new sets of dinnerware and drinkware. Should I get sets of 8 or 12? My family is composed of my husband, myself, and our 16 months old son, and we dont entertain very often.

Answer
Are you purchasing very expensive items? Investing in settings for twelve will carry you in good stead for many years (unless it's Melmac, there will be breakage) and you can always pass it on to the next generation. How big is your extended family? Lots of things to consider, but I suggest service for 8 in a moderate price range; don't break the bank......your taste may change sooner than you think.

How much dinnerware should I buy?

Im moving into my first apartment with my boyfriend and we have to buy dinnerware. How many place setting should I buy for just two people. We may have parents over some nights so I know we need at least 4. so 4, 6, or 8?

Answer
I would suggest 8. Consider that you'll also have some dishes dirty and you'll still want to have enough to have people over without necessarily having to do the dishes first. And, if something breaks, you have plenty of extras to use.
