I liked the holiday paper plates from Chinet that I used last year for Thanksgiving and I had a couple of them left - actually they are the 12" x 10" platters. They are the heavy fiberboard/compostable ones. They are not slippery, totally hold their flatness, even when picked up one handed and they have a rim to keep things contained. I just placed an order for more of them.
Thanks Onebyone, for the idea for using plates. The thought of using them never occurred to me. They will also stack nicely even with the amount of fabric needed for each block in them. Also they will be easy to count when needed, so no need to write on them. Definitely something that can be used over and over again.
