A red squiggle wanders all the way around the rim of these cream plates, with a soft pink band just outside it and a toadstool sitting in the middle. Some caps are scarlet and speckled with gold foil dots, some wear white spots over a gold-tipped stem, and a few are the slender pale kind that come up in clusters.
Side plate size, which is to say a slice of gingerbread, three cookies, a small pile of appetizers on the way to the tree. Set one down at every place and watch your kid go straight for the gold-spotted mushroom.

Why we love it
Paper plates usually feel like the part of the party you throw away. These read as decoration, the sort of thing that makes a plain tablecloth look considered, and they turn a random Tuesday of cookie frosting into an occasion.
