Anniversary Fiesta

2011 is a special year for collectors of Fiesta dinnerware. Our beloved dishes are celebrating their 75th anniversary! The Homer Laughlin China Collectors Association, aka the HLCCA, is marking this birthday with a range of activities, including special coverage in The Dish magazine. The summer edition of this publication features a fiesta of Mexican-themed tablescapes by members. I was thrilled to be able to contribute this table for the party.





















On this tabletop, Riviera dinnerware meets the Fiesta promotional casserole, a Kitchen Kraft pie plate, Rainbow Depression glass, a vintage tablecloth from my friend Kathy, flatware from the Flatware Fairy and contemporary napkins. This tablecloth was also used for a tribute to Toastmaster go-along pottery.

Thank you, Elaine, for organizing this wonderful article!
