These charger plates are super easy to use. Just place them on your dining table before setting the regular plates. They're perfect for adding a touch of elegance to formal events like receptions and banquets. When it comes to cleaning, simply rinse them under hot water. But remember, don't put them in the microwave or dishwasher as they're not made for that. Keep them in a dry place when not in use to maintain their quality. Also, since the sale only includes the charger plates, you'll need to get other decorative accessories separately if you want to create a more elaborate table setting.
