Fiesta Dish Friends - New colors

[whitemerlot]

Blah. I don't like them. I prefer the brighter colors.

I have wanted a deep, bright pink for years.

[shamrockshake]

not a fan- especially the "sage" which isn't even sage to me, sage is more dusty green- that's very olive

[xtine22]

I don't really like those colors. Nor would they go with the ones I already have. I really want to get another color in my dish set but I have enough for 12, there is only 3 of us we don't really have tons of people over so I can't really justify adding more plate.

I have 14 now, so I can only buy what I like.

That takes all the "fiesta!" out of the equation! Hate.

[underwaterrhymes]

Oooh. I really like those, actually.

Not a fun- I prefer bright colors. My fiesta ware is red and yellow with o few pieces of the vintage turquoise mixed in. I need more vintage turquoise.

I expected slate, but sage was a surprise.

I was really hoping for a new purple. Lemongrass was a new spin on chartruese, lapis was a new spin on sapphire, so I was really hoping for an orchid shade as a replacement for lilac.

[hisno1girl]

Newp. Don't like those at all.

[phoebebuffay]

You get Fiesta for three reasons. 1. It's durable. 2. It will always be around and you can add to it. 3. The FUN colors!

Not a fan of these

[ginger]

We have bright colors as well, so I probably won't buy any, but I do LOVE that slate.

[cville]

These are boring. They don't even look like Fiestaware. They look like some earthy collection from Crate and Barrel.

[cinderbella]

I don't love them. We have all RoyGBiv so these don't match at all.

[TrickyBob]

I wish fiesta would follow the colors of the year. Last years orchid was so pretty.

[lilafowler]

Boring.

[underwaterrhymes]

More for meeeeeeee.

Does anyone use their lunch plate as a dinner plate?

We need to get new plates and I'm debating fiesta plates. The colors are so fun!

This is me too. Only they seem to heavy and I can't decide what colors I'd want

DURABLE.

We don't use our Fiesta that often anymore, but I really like the slate. I think it could really make the other colors pop. I don't like the sage, and I agree that it's olive, not sage. But sage, slate, dark blue, and the burgundy they used to make would be a cool and dramatic combination. It's just not something I would want. I prefer eating off a lighter color plate.

Sometimes, if we're having, say, sandwiches and soup for dinner, or lasagna and salad, we'll use the lunch plate and a bowl. I wouldn't want only lunch plates though.

This, plus color overload, was what ultimately made me want a lighter weight all white set. We mostly use the white now, but I like having both options.

[whitemerlot]

Do any of you with the lighter colors get the dark scratches? My yellow and ivory need a clean. Is barkeepers friend the best thing to use?

[compassrose]

Hmm, neither of those will go with my blue/teal/aqua/white theme. Sad.

[dojo]

I could see these colours being pretty in a mix-and-match set, but on their own they are so... blah.

[stephm0188]

The more I look at sage, the more I like it. I think it'll be lovely for Christmas. I don't really like evergreen or shamrock with my Christmas plates, and I think sage will go nicely.

I'm loving a lot of Cambridge's go alongs. The wine stoppers will be mine!

[BlackCanary]

I love the slate, I might pick some up when I'm able to get my own place.

[aprilsails]

I really want to get Fiestaware but DH is not a fan. He doesn't like how heavy it is. I'm attracted to the super bright ones so these don't do it for me.
