"Collector's" plates- Gaudy or Mod?

You know I love Goodwill, so the only thing better than Goodwill, is Goodwill on half off days. My find of the day was a Gatlinburg Tennessee "Collectors" plate. While most would snub their nose at this $0.99 find, yours truly jumped at the chance to own such a piece of Americana history. These kitschy little plates have a million uses because:

1. They're slightly gaudy with gold trim (I just got chills)

2. They usually have a lot of color (i.e. they add a spot of color in any room)

Now that I have these things, what do I do with them?

1. They can be used as a place to put rings, keys, spare change, so put them on any table or dresser

2. You can use them as a focal point on a wall (think your grandmother's plate collection, but with a modern touch because you will hang them in a random pattern, rather than on some outdated wood shelf) in your kitchen, breakfast room, or dining room.
