Hi Farmgirls....I am looking for pieces of Fiestaware (old or new) to use in the Craftsman style kitchen of a home we just purchased in Oregon. Let me know what you might have and what you would like to barter! I'm new here and this is my first post! |

Hi Tammy -
I don't have any Fiesta, but there is a store near me that sells "seconds" of Fiesta. If you tell me what pieces/colors you are looking for, I could see what they have available for you. The only problem is shipping from PA would probably be quite expensive for you. I don't need anything in trade - just willing to help find what you are looking for!
Welcome to the group!

Thanks Luanne....I am so excited to be part of such a great group. As far as the Fiestaware goes, I am looking for items like pitchers, platters, etc. Any color, except white, cream or brown. Thanks for keeping an eye out for me :)

I'm leaving on vacation in a couple of days, but would be glad to go and see what they have for you when I get back.
If I forget, remind me!

I don't have any for sale or barter. But i just wanted to say that it is a GREAT choice.. I have been collecting for a few years now.. I have 18 place settings, all the serving bowls,pitchers and etc are in my cabinets and used on a daily basis.. You can't go wrong with this stuff.. and a plug for my home state. It is and always will be MADE IN WEST VIRGINIA... |

First, welcome Tammy!
Second, I collect Fiesta and have now for quite some time and do have a few pieces I might like to part with. I have a cobalt carafe I would be willing to trade. It is a pretty spendy piece, but I do like to trade. I like anything cowboy, cowgirl, do scrapbooking, but have way too much of it...always looking for unique and vintage rubber stamps. I like silver jewelry. I like quilts. I like cobalt bottles for my kitchen window...or maybe you can suggest to me something you have that you might like to trade for, OK? Fiesta wears like iron. I know you will really enjoy it.
Let me know what you think, OK? Hugs, Mary

Hi Mary...thank you for your lovely welcome! The carafe is gorgeous. I would love to have it if I can make the trade....I too am a huge "scrapbooker" really more of an altered art book maker. I make vintage memory books in all themes, with vintage materials, postcards, etc. That said, I have a huge studio filled with vintage cards, postcards, every paper line you could imagine, etc. I have some very cute vintage cowboy/cowgirl postcards. I am an avid reader, both books and magazines. I do collect old bottles, so probably would have a couple cobalt ones for you. I collect vintage cookbooks and aprons. I wish I had more quilts :) I too love silver jewelry, and will see if I have any for barter. I have lots of vintage brooches, etc., but my only silver pieces are family heirlooms! Let me know your thoughts!
Have a wonderful day!
Tammy |

Hi Tammy, I do have a covered bowl/dish lighter blue Fiesta if you're interested. Will try to send you a pic. A friend bought it for me years ago from a Fiesta outlet because it reminded her of Winnie the Pooh's honey pot. Have a great evening, and let me know. Toni |

I'm not too picky. Love anything handmade or vintage. In dire need of vegetable seeds (my stash got wet last fall and ruined) Quilt fabric, yarn, books. Tell me what you have. |

Well, I collect vintage paper goods....postcards, recipe books, tons of art stuff for scrapbooking, collage, etc. Also old aprons and handkerchiefs. Have books...tons of books...what do you like? I can certainly buy some vegetable seeds if you let me know what you want.
Thanks, Tammy
