Just for fun, if you have multiple colors of Fiestawear, when you put them away, do you put them in any pattern or just however they come out of the wash?
Thanks! π

I have old ivory and turquoise fiestaware. I like when they are stacked every other but my Fiance puts the dishes away so typically they just get placed in there however. I’m considering adding another color when we register. Do you have any suggestions?

RED! I love turqoise and red… or if you want to keep it in a cooler color pallet, the light green they have now is so pretty. (I am debating adding a few light green to my marrigold/paprica/coalbalt/peacock)

We have lemongrass, shamrock and turquoise. My husband is weird and will take a plate out of the middle of the stack so he can eat off of the shamrock ones. I am fine with whatever.
I just stack them however they come out of the dishwasher, but I will sometimes take them out of the dishwasher every other color just as a little game.

@MsBrooklynA: I know! When we first decided on Fiesta I was like…. “Can we get all of the colors?”
@missrobots: Lemon Grass! That is the name of the green… (Not like I couldn’t have looked it up, I’m already online…. ) I also have a favorite color to eat off of, but I don’t go so far as taking them from the middle of the stack. I just feel like it’s “lucky” (or something) if I end up with that color. π

I love Fiesta!!! I’ve been collecting it since I was in high school! lol, I was probably one of only a few college students that brought 8 place settings of Fiesta with me!
I don’t arrange them in any particular color or pattern when storing.
I currently have place settings in…
Flamingo, Peacock, Lemongrass, Ivory, Persimmon, Yellow, Periwinkle, Rose, Black, Chocolate Brown, Juniper, Shamrock, Plum, & Gray. Then, I have tons of accessories in other colors as well!

I just pull them out of the dishwasher and stick them in the cabinet however they are. But I am OCD about not having the same color next to each other (I have a couple of repeat colors).
I have (can’t remember all of the official color names):
persimmon
shamrock
rose pink (3 sets)
orange
dark blue
turquoise
purple
red
I can’t remember if there are any others.

I LOVE Fiestaware! I have soooo many colors. Usually when people ask me what colors I would like, I tell them any color but brown, black, white, ivory and gray. I like the bright colors!
PLUS, They are made in West Virginia so there is an outlet store at their factory and you can buy tons of Fiestaware super cheap! We go about twice a year!

I have lemongrass, turquoise, and paprika, four of each color. When I stack them in our cabinets, it’s in a pattern of two paprika, two lemongrass, two turquoise, two paprika, two lemongrass, two turquoise. Makes them look pretty. π

So this is an older thread, but I wanted to jump in! We originally registered for Ivory and Chocolate, and added Lemongrass last year. We have the 5 piece place settings (8 total) and a few serving pieces. LOVE Fiestaware!!!

I like to keep like colors together, going from lightest on top to darkest at the bottom. They look fantastic stacked in random order, but I prefer to color grading I do, it just looks very pretty. I know that makes me slightly weird!
