Dots Take Boston!

HLCCA conference goers had a wonderful surprise waiting for us when we visited the Homer Laughlin China Outlet earlier this month: lapis salad plates and mugs decalled in polka dots! I shipped mine home to avoid airline issues, and it was a challenge to wait out the arrival of that box.

These lapis pieces are a wonderful next chapter in the dot saga started by HLCCA when it offered white and scarlet pieces at the Nashville conference in 2010.

I decided to punch up the color on the table with the small marigold rice bowls I also found at the outlet.

Thanks for this Fiesta surprise, HLC! You knew just what would make our blue stripe pieces even more fun.
