What is your opinion, I wanted some new dishes and I couldn't decide a color. So, I bought them all.?!
I'm trying to start buying quality things that will last me forever!. But I'm trying to figure out how I'm going to feel later!. Would it bother you to have 12 dishes in 6 colors, but the same brand and style!. I bought 2 in red, blue, purple, green, yellow, and orange!. (If you knew me than you would know I love bright colors) I don't need nor do I have the room for 24 dishes!. It usually bothers me when things don't match, but I couldn't pick a color!. It drives me nuts when the wood colors in a room don't match or things are not even!. I like groups and sets and matching!. It doesn't bother me now and I like the contrast in the china cabnet!. But I just wonder if it will be cute or embarassing when holidays or parties come and my dishes do not really match!. Will it feel like I was trying to have contrast or like I was being cheap!. I guess, the reason to get together with my friends and family!. Its important to learn to cook and be a host!. Food is very important!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

I have a very good friend who has done just what you did, she has Fiesta Ware plates, cups, saucers, serving platters in all different colors!. This way if one item breaks, she can replace it in whatever color is available!. The table she sets is always beautiful and the colors add to the party feeling!. You can be casual or elegant with glasses, napkins, table linens, serving platters, etc!.
I have all white for casual and formal dining, and I am happy with my choice!. I made that decision because I am all about the food, and to my eye it looks best on all white!. However, I secretly (well, maybe not so secretly) covet her colors - It just seems she has more fun!Www@FoodAQ@Com

Sounds like it will look nice as they are the same style just different colors!. I did a similar thing with my fine china!. I bought all the same color white with a platinum trim but all different place settings from different companies!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
not everything has to match by color, they're the same style so i'm sure your dishes are very cute! if anyone comments on the different colors, tell them you were going for an eclectic look!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
