Just 4 Fun- What Kind/color/pattern Of Dishes Do You Use? Glassware And Flatware, Too?
I have dishes "Isabella" pattern- in a shade of paprika~ish red. My glassware is a smoky color , and my flatware is gold (not real gold lol) Got the dishes and flatware from JC Penney, and the glassware from target. Love it!

That keeps it fresh and interesting to mix and match. Kinda like Fiesta ware.
My favorite kind of dish ware to use is white with like fruit or something of that sort surrounding it. The compare that I like is know longer in service though.

Sounds lovely~ I love the fruit or floral patterns available now. See some Pfaltzgraff and Corelle that are pretty.
LOL, when tigger was younger, she couldn't say coca-cola, and it came out coca-loda, so that is what we call it now. Lol
How fun and cute! Great theme. I have friends whose bedroom is coca~cola. Well the man likes it, the lady- not so much~ :)
When Red Lobster bought all new dishes for all of their restaurants, they "gave" all their current pattern to various thrift stores throughout each state. I was able to purchase a setting for eight of the dinner plates, salad plates and soup bowls. The colors are sort of a matte' finish of red, yellow, blue and green. My glassware is a colbalt blue color from Pier One and my flatware is just a regular traditional pattern.

Sounds gorgeous. I used to have white/blue pfaltzgraff and blue dishes but I decored my kitchen and dining room, in earth tones and fall reds~ so I donated the `old stuff` to charity and boutgh all new. Neede a change, the `old stuff` is from when I first got married, and now that Doug has died, I just needed some new things to kind of help with a fresh start.
I can understand that. But, I hope that you still have things around to remind you of certain times and memories, right? Bless you dear.
I have gold ring dishes and I have ivory white that has flowers on it I have not gotting any color yet but I love these that I have.

I have 3/4 different sets. When I set a table though, it's in vintage flower style with varying colors. My glasses? Because of all the people in and out, I have a beautiful set of Masonry jars. (With handles) A local bar (now gone) use to serve a drink in them to go. At the window no less. So, naturally, almost everyone of my friends has a set. ROFL

Love masonry jar drinking glasses, so fun and old-fashioned
I have 6 sets of dinnerware...LOL... I collect antique china and have 2 sets... Not quite complete, but enough we could use them if I wanted to. For holidays, I have my Pfaltzgraff China. Its all white with a scalloped design around the edges.. Unfortunately, they discontinued it before I got all the cool serving pieces, but I have lots of it. I have a set of stoneware that we use occasionally that has cows, and I have some Corelle from the 70's with the blue onion pattern... Those I started collecting because its the dishes my mom had when I was a kid. I usually find the pieces at flea markets and second hand stores, and have almost a complete set... Got lots of it and we use it nearly everyday. But my favorite is my malamine (plastic) dishes that we use everyday... Its all red, the dinner plates are white with red stripes around the edge, and all the rest if the pieces are red... They match my kitchen and I love them. I know...I have WAY too many dishes... But I cant part with any of them... The 2 sets of antiques are also patterns my mom had when I was a kid... So the 3 that Im collecting have sentimental value to them.
As for flatware, I bought mine at a rummage sale about 20 years ago. They are Oneida... Chateau pattern. I bought a huge box for $15... Theres like 40 forkes,40 spoons, 25 knives.. Etc, plus serving pieces... Well worth what I paid for them... I got an amazing bargin... To replace just one teaspoon is $13...lol. My glasses are ALL plastic...I have too many males around my house for glass... I have to search the yard and workshop for glasses before I do dishes...LOL.
