Instead of being so matchy matchy this 4th, bring in some exotic appeal with these great tin dragon plates from Mottahedeh. The pattern comes in china to use inside and tin for outside.

For picnics and poolside entertaining, melamine or tin are good choices. They look good, last a long time, and kids won't break them. C.S. Post offers Polka Dots in red white and blue.
