Fall Place Setting with Grateful Napkin

Fall Place Setting with Fiesta

Why not throw caution to the wind this Thanksgiving and mix up your holiday table with a little more color. After all, it is 2020, and breaking with tradition is to be expected if not mandatory.

My girls and I love Fiesta dinnerware. My sister, Laura Glass Lumpkin, loves the classics: Lenox, Gorham, Fostoria, and a little "Dollar Store". Her hobby of collecting dishes has turned into a full-blown obsession. She gets it honest...from our Mama.

So, for this article, we decided to do a "Thanksgiving Table Setting Mashup". Laura with her classics, yard sale and thrift store finds. Then there is me with Fiesta Dinnerware* and some of my everyday silverware and glasses.

I believe the "mashup" was a great success. Hope you do as well and will want to add a little Fiesta to your traditional Thanksgiving dinner table too. If you do, please send us pictures. Better yet, join our new Facebook group, SouthernHolidayLife, and post your pictures there.
