How to Store China

If your china makes it out only for special occasions, keep it safe and clean in the off-season with these easy steps.

Instructions

Difficulty: Easy

Things You’ll Need:

• White Paper

1. Wash and dry your china thoroughly, keeping the manufacturer's instructions in mind.
2. Store all china in zippered china protectors. Clear plastic wrap provides an inexpensive yet equally effective alternative.
3. Stack plates together, placing a paper plate in between each one. This will prevent the base of a plate from damaging the decorative surface of the plate underneath it.
4. Stack cups together, keeping them separated with any type of paper product.
5. Protect the spout of a china teapot by simply slipping a cardboard toilet paper roll over it.
6. Store your collection of china in a low cabinet if you live in earthquake country - or if you consider yourself especially clumsy.

Tips & Warnings

• You can use any kind of paper to separate plates and cups, including paper napkins.
