Shelly in IL Posted April 26, 2016 Share Posted April 26, 2016 Def turquoise! And peacock, flamingo, oh just get one of all of them. They're all beautiful! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HelenNotOfTroy Posted April 26, 2016 Share Posted April 26, 2016 We have sunflower because DH likes yellow, lapis because I thought it looks nice with sunflower, turquoise and sage because I like those colors, and DS picked paprika and plum.

Excelsior! Academy Posted April 26, 2016 Share Posted April 26, 2016 (edited) All the colors! Really. I hit a black Friday sale and purchased all the current colors except white and cream. Unfortunately black was back ordered and it never arrived, then my order (for the black set) was cancelled. :( Edited April 27, 2016 by Excelsior!

Junie Posted April 26, 2016 Share Posted April 26, 2016 I have just two serving bowls -- poppy and lemongrass. Red and green are my favorite colors. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3 ladybugs Posted April 27, 2016 Share Posted April 27, 2016 I have 8 colors. No black, white, cream, or grey. I am not big into non colors. They are GREAT! Love that none of my dishes match incase an accident happens. Wait, that should be WHEN an accident happens. It just hasn't happened yet but we have only had the last 4 colors since Christmas. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gingersmom Posted April 27, 2016 Share Posted April 27, 2016 We have purple, pink, yellow, green, blue, red, orange and some colors I'm not thinking of. We love picking out the plate color we are in the mood for. My son loves his bright red bowl. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cjzimmer1 Posted April 27, 2016 Share Posted April 27, 2016 We have cobalt. 10 full place settings every single piece is Cobalt. I'm weird I don't like having all kinds of colors mixed together. I like Fiestaware a lot but just one color at a time for me. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sandragood1 Posted April 27, 2016 Share Posted April 27, 2016 I have 10 place settings each a different color. No whites, beiges, Browns, or blacks. I love having a rainbow in my cupboard! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jane Elliot Posted April 27, 2016 Share Posted April 27, 2016 Shamrock, turquoise, cobalt, scarlet, tangerine, and sunflower. Almost exactly this, except peacock instead of turquoise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is what I'm waiting for! I want 6 place settings to start with. Carleton, Poppy, Scarlet, Plum, Turquoise, and Cobalt Blue. I should probably get a green one too. This just got hard.

Evergreen State Sue Posted April 27, 2016 Share Posted April 27, 2016 I've got about 12 colors, but my favorite is the lapis, sunflower, and peacock. If I want a blue table, I mix cobalt, peacock, lapis and turquoise. If I need more placesettings, the yellows (sunflower and marigold) mix well with the blues. This is the first I heard a new color (claret) is coming. Are they retiring a color? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Momling Posted April 27, 2016 Share Posted April 27, 2016 We have cobalt. 10 full place settings every single piece is Cobalt. I'm weird I don't like having all kinds of colors mixed together. I like Fiestaware a lot but just one color at a time for me. We have cobalt also for all place settings. I also have some red for serving dishes. I like consistency and plus know how it works at my house and I hate arguments about who gets the purple and who has the yellow (or whatever).

LucyStoner Posted April 27, 2016 Share Posted April 27, 2016 Peacock, shamrock, scarlet, whatever they call the dark purple, flamingo, turquoise. Everyone has an assigned color. I ant to get some extras for more guests. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, they add one new color & retire one old color every year. 2015 they added sage & slate, and retired black & peacock (I think...), and now they are adding the claret and retiring the plum.

TheReader Posted April 28, 2016 Share Posted April 28, 2016 I have all 12 of the colors that were available when I first bought mine in 2013, for our place settings. I have added other pieces in assorted colors as well. I do not have any cream/white/black, and I probably won't add the sage that came out last year, I'm not sure. I will definitely add the claret when it comes out. My plan is to add the new color every year, if I like it. I love the mix/match possibilities.

PrairieSong Posted April 28, 2016 Share Posted April 28, 2016 Lapis, scarlet, turquoise, plum, lemongrass, tangerine, and sage. I love them all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forget-Me-Not Posted April 28, 2016 Share Posted April 28, 2016 Lapis, peacock, sunflower, tangerine, scarlett, lemongrass. I've had them almost 2 yrs and the mix of colors still makes me feel joyful anytime I open the cupboard or the dishwasher. I had a friend try to talk me into plain white dishes, but I don't regret going big with the color at all. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wish they would come back with the lavender to go with the plum. I always thought the plum was too dark. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I went all white and I like it but am bored and need a change, I need some color in my kitchen. when Dh pointed out the fiestware sale I did not hesitate to choose colors and order. Should be in today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't seen the date; I think someone upthread said the new color comes out in June, so I expect the plum will be retired at the same time. If you plan to get some, I'd get some now just in case. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spryte Posted April 28, 2016 Share Posted April 28, 2016 Mix colors! :) We have a crazy mix of colors. I don't know the names, just grabbed colors we all liked. We've got about 12 place settings and various serving pieces and others. I've been using fiesta since the early 90s, so it's been a slow collection. I used to buy only vintage, but we freecycled most of the vintage due to lead worries. We just picked up two new cups at a thrift shop a few days ago.
